Moyra polish - http://www.moyra-shop.co.uk

I won the Moyra collection of textured/sand polishes in a Facebook giveaway and this is the first one I tried. It applied really well and dried really quickly but unfortunately it didn't last very well, I had chips in it within a few hours. As it's a textured polish it was easy to touch up the chipped areas but it's not the best choice for a long lasting mani for me. However different polishes will dry/last differently on different people so as these polishes are only around £3 I'd definitely recommend trying them to see if they last well on you!

This is two coats with no topcoat.

Here's a close up so you can see the fab texture!

On my ring fingers, I used these cute monkey stickers and sealed them with a coat of topcoat which obviously did smooth out the texture but it also kept my monkeys on :)
