Indeed I got the same info from the website of Breathing Color Glamour. 
How does it look like when wet? Opaque white? That could point to 
acrylics. Acrylics have also a rather distinct smell, a bit difficult 
to describe, clearly "synthetic" but not too stroong, with a bit of a 
sweet undertone.  Does this poor description ring a bell?

By the way, just applied a second, more diluted layer of "Eternacryl" 
and that looks much better. The paper looks clearly coated though, the 
softness of Photorag has gone. But I guess that can not be avoided.
