Swatching this shade has been nigh on impossible – my cameras, both of them, insist on turning the shade blue, but the above press picture is exactly correct although with two coats it is slightly darker than shown. I’ve had to do my best on my phone camera to knock out the blue tones that my other camera can’t get rid of.
Ultra Violet is a brilliant shade of purple – a real wow colour – with a high gloss finish and is part of the limited edition Anselm Reyle collection out on 9th January at Selfridges and Harrods. I’m thrilled with the shade; it’s vivid and lively but still stays on the right side of dark for winter.

Very pretty – shame my nails are absolutely terrible.
I really like purple nail polish but it’s so hard to find! This shade is a little dark for my liking x
Looks like a darker version Purple Mix from CD xD

Love this colour!
That is a gorgeous colour, I love it.
Coo! Reminds me of my very first OPI, Can You Dig It? which started me off on my whole nail obsession. 60+ bottles later (about 50% of which are purples, my favourite colour) I’ve yet to replicate the shade (original bottle has gone to Polish Bin in the Sky, weep). Too many purples pull too red, or turn out darker or lighter than I want. I will probably have to get my paws on a bottle or two of this, as it looks perfect!
I love that high gloss purple its perfect! PS I’m heading to the Mary Quant Store tomorrow, what are the chances of me sneaking in a few photos whilst there? NIL LOL xx Have a Happy New Year
It looks amazing! Hopefully I’ll be able to find a dupe for it.
