OPI Outrageous neons- Seriously Purple

OPI Outrageous Neons

So yesterday I tried my first OPI min kit -outrageous neons. I have to say this was not a wonderful experience sending me out to find similar kits. I tried the seriously purple. I followed the instructions and was less than impressed with the final result. I found the neck on the bottles to small which made application a little difficult, perhaps OPI could re-engineer their bottles on there mini products.
Any way step 1 said to apply one coat of white base . As you can see it didn't go on very evenly and was all streaky.

Step 2 was to apply  two coats of your chosen neon shade- in this case seriously purple. This is when it went all pear shaped. Perhaps I should say eggplant shaped keeping with the purple theme! It just looked really streaky, magnifying the streaks from the base coat. Even a third coat didn't provide any assistance.

Step 3- apply top coat.
 This was the only step that worked. I liked the way it transformed the polish from a matte finish to a glossy finish. I love a bit of sparkle in a polish. On the positive side I really like this purple colour.
After being so disappointed with the result I hit Google to see what others have thought about it. It seems I am not alone in my opinion that this polish could do with some improvements.
On the plus sign there did seem to be some positive feedback about the other polishes in the kit. So hopefully some more positive results next time.
