The Great Aussie Polish Challenge- Day 2, Ulta3

The Great Aussie Polish Challenge
Today is Day 2 of The Great Aussie Polish Challenge and that means it's Ulta3 Tuesday!
Ulta3 is an Aussie Polish brand that you see in the Chemists (Drugstores) and Targets all over the country in big bins that require bin diving to find the colors you are looking for :) They are a whole $2 each and have a great range of colors and great formulas...a bargain, which is the great Australian way. Recently the production has shifted to China resulting in slight different formulas, some better, some worse, some not noticeable.


Today I bring you Ulta3 Mulberry. Mulberry I acquired by accident in my Bellabox for July and was pretty thrilled as this isn't usually a color I go for. It's a deep plum dusky purple that is gorgeous. This is the Made in the Aus version.

Gratuitious wierd lighting shot!
Gold Rush Fever stamped so well, it was really easy to get a good print out of it. I used Cheeky 1 stamping plate for the design and filled in some of the print with glitter and then Seche Vite the whole design :) Ulta3 have some amazing colors and a tiny price. They can be underestimated by the general population they definitely get a gold medal in my opinion!

  1. I love this purple/gold combo! Very nice stamping. Is Mulberry matte?

    1. Mulberry is actually a jelly but because it's so dark it comes across more matte than anything, strange huh? :)

    1. I thought it would be a shiny glossy finish but I think it was so dark it just didn't reflect any light! Weird :)
