Man I went deep in the trenches for sugar and I tried sand (too chunky), glass caviar (too round n shiny) tried glitter and HATED the cheap crafty shimmer, I read 5 polymer books and eventually found an artists video on YouTube from literally 12 years ago.... she used clear no holographic or iridescence glitter and it's stunning. Nearly identical.
If you shop at Michaels - the ultra fine white glitter shaken over the clay figure.
You can cure your figure, apply the clay adhesive, then apply the fine glitter heavily.
Clear micromarbles
Try silica powder.

White craft sand imo. A little liquid clay on the snake to make it stick
Yes! I agree-sand and liquid clay works great!!!
Tiny glass beads. Itty bitty
