OPI Liquid Sand

OPI Liquid Sand in Get Your Number

I picked up this four-colour sample set of the new OPI 'liquid sand' nailpolishes on a whim earlier today while I was at Ulta. These polishes are part of Mariah Carey's limited edition collection and I simply couldn't resist testing out the new formula.

'Liquid Sand' is described as drying to a textured matte finish infused with reflective glints of light. I couldn't describe the finish better myself--it is both matte and glittery at the same time. And because you aren't meant to wear them with a top coat, your nails actually feel as if they are covered with sand! One of the more innovative nail polishes I've seen in a long time.

My biggest complaint, however, is the limited shade range. At present, the liquid sand formula only comes in these four shades--a blue, a purple, a pinky red, and a black with red glitter. I would love it if they offered a shade that actually looked like sand, itself---the day OPI releases a neutral shade in the liquid sand finish will be a great day indeed.
