anyone use faux paint finishes?

I did sponging using Behr paint about 6 years ago in my old house......now I'm thinking about using Benjamin Moore, but when I went on their site I noticed they have different texture paints & glazes. has anyone used these? if so with what colors.....if you have any pictures it would be great! TIA!

No, that would be awesome though. It does have some sandy texture to it.
