China Glaze’s Rated Holographic

Two coats gave me full opaque coverage, but three coats deepened the color from a pink-peach to a peach-rose. It also smoothed out the holographic effect slightly - there wasn't quite the rainbow effect I get with even two coats of any of the OMG colors, but it was a faint version of it. (I didn't want to go to four coats because this collection has been discontinued, and unless you want to pay upwards of $16 a bottle for them, you can't get them any more. I also have three bottles of TTYL, the corresponding color in the OMG collection. So when I really want that rainbow-holographic goodness, I have backups of backups!)
