OPI has its Liquid Sand. Orly has its Pixel line. Zoya has the Pixie Dust and now Sally Beauty introduces the Nina Ultra Pro Limited Edition Matte Glitter. All these line are textured and dry to a matte glitter. I was recently in my local Sally Beauty and came across this limited edition line. I was slow in adding the textured polishes to my collection but now I am really liking them. So I was quick to grab this small collection. There are currently 3 shades to this collection - Shooting Star, Twinkle Twinkle and Star Bright. I can only hope that they add more shades to the collection. While pretty, I wouldn't necessarily say that they are Summer shades. But it you are like me, I wear what I like, whenever I like it. LOL!
The first in this collection is Shooting Star, a gorgeous blingy silver. This is two coats with no top coat. Silver polishes tend to scare me but this one, although bright, its not gaudy bright. I had nothing like this in my collection nor have I seen anything similar in other brands. I'm glad I own it.
Next, is the first I picked up in this collection, surprise, surprise. This is Twinkle, Twinkle - a navy blue glitter that dries matte.
Lastly, in this collection is Star Bright, a pink matte glitter. Surprisingly, I'm really liking this textured finish. I am normally a smooth finish girl. But like with most of the textured polishes, a top coat isn't suggested, but if you prefer a smooth finish you can always add your favorite top coat.
As I mentioned earlier, several brands have their version of the glitter matte polishes. When not paying attention, I purchased the Nina Ultra Pro in Star Bright and the Orly Pink Pixel. When I got them home, I had to do a comparison. Below you can see that the Nina Pro appears to be more textured as well as lighter in color. I wouldn't call them dupes but they are definitely in the same color family. While I normally love the Orly line, in this case, I prefer the Nina formulation. Again, I hope they release other shades in the Matte Glitter finish.
If you haven't tried the Nina Ultra Pro line yet, you really should. I love the brush. It's another one of those wide brushes that pretty much covers the nail with one stroke. Nina Ultra Pro is exclusive to Sally Beauty and sales for $4.69 a bottle for a 0.5 fl oz bottle.
Grace, Peace, & Blessings.
