NerdLacquer Cold & Calculating a dusty purple

This is one of the oldest first indie brands out there (around the same time as Cult Nails and Hare), and it dissapeared for a while, but now it's back.  My friend Robyn offered to trade this pretty with me because she knows I love purple ♥  This has a metallic sheen to it, but I wish it was more visible.  As the title implies, it is dusty (and brownish), which is what I expected from looking at the bottle, but I was hoping for it to be more sparkly on the nail.  I also wanted more hexagons, I see most of them remained stuck to the walls of the bottle.  I like it more in pics than in real life, it's usually the other way around o.O
