OPI Can't Let Go

OPI recently introduced a new Liquid Sand finish as part of their Mariah Carey collection. I purchased Can't Let It Go while passing through Gatwick Airport dutyfree last weekend, where it was retailing for £9.50.

The Liquid Sand texture is basically a concrete-like matte finish with small round and large hexagonal glitter.

While Can't Let Go applies smoothly, once it sets, it has a dry, rough gritty texture that takes some getting used to. The glitter bits keep it from looking too dull. I do like the dusky deep purple shade.

Two coats was sufficient to achieve opacity. Overall, I think Liquid Sand is one of the better recent innovations, certainly more practical than caviar nails or velvet manicures.
