Nina Ultra Pro Purple-xing

After reading Scrangie's post about Nina Ultra Pro Purple-xing, I had to have it for myself.  Probably the best part is the name - I'm going with her ultimate guess of "perplexing" which is such a good play on words.  Now for me, this was a straight up purple glitter with rainbow silver glitter (the kind that reflects light).  LOVE, love, love, love.


I used a base of Seche Natural, 2 coats of Purple-xing and then it got weird.  I used my Seche Vite like normal, but then my polish was still lumpy.  REALLY lumpy.  I then added a second coat of Seche Vite but the lumpiness was still there.  It never did smooth out.


Here in the sun, you can see the grittiness and lumps especially on my ring finger - what's up with that?!  It's almost like China Glaze Flying Dragon where the neon parts stand out - no clue what's up with that.


In the shade, you can still see some of the lumps and what looks like a bare spot in the top half middle of my first nail.  Grr.  As usual, removal was a bit longer because this is a glitter.  Overall, lovely - I paid a whole $3 for this at Sally's Beauty Supply and was super happy.


Unfortunately, I can't find any information on Nina Ultra Pro other than the fact it's located for sale at Sally's Beauty Supply - anyone else have more?
