As Curly said, flakies! It's worn over a coat of black polish in this picture.
The most widely known brand is Nfu-oh.
Here's another variation
Hope this helps!

Hey! I'm wearing that first nail today!
My first flakie... Nubar 2010 over Wet & Wild Creme Black. Can't wait to grab a couple Nfu-ohs

Other potentially well (ish) known brands for it, at least in the UK, are GOSH rainbow and the less well known but more easily acquired Andrea Fullerton "Gemstone Overcoat" (the latter is from Superdrug) 
Another awesome tip for these types of topcoat is to try them with matte over them. Ideally, on a dark colour - on a forum i'm on, one girl has really popularised the dark blue, flakies, matte mani. Black as a base would also rock that look!
I recently went kinda the opposite way though and wore a creamy white (MAC HK Vestral White, for the record), topped with the flakies and seche'd. It looked like glistening, sparkling snow!

If you live in the U.S., you can get Nubar polishes directly from them, at www.bynubar.com
for Nfu-oh polishes, try www.fabuloustreet.com; you can also got to ebay for either brand (which, in my opinion you get a better deal on Nubar).
