Application was great! The consistency of Pine Boughs is fluid and full-bodied with a medium viscosity and a luxurious, velvety glide over the nail that sets up fairly quickly. Self-leveling properties are outstanding as is pigmentation, delivering completely opaque coverage in a single medium coat. I used two as I always do to improve some of my lines, but it really didn't change the look. Cleanup is straightforward. Pine Boughs dries naturally in very good time to a smooth, flat finish that wants a glossy topcoat to look its best. Topcoat does not inhibit the holographic effects in any way.
Photos show two coats of Pine Boughs over KBShimmer Love You Strong Time treatment and KBShimmer Fillin' Groovy basecoat with a topcoat of Seche Vite.

This is a beautifully formulated polish. The amount of holographic pigment is carefully calculated to allow for sufficient dimensionalizing and prismatic effects without any sacrifice to the saturation of the color. The result is a rich, luxuriant pine green lacquer with fantastic opulence and depth on the nail.
I love this look so much! That shimmering, dimensional bloom along the axis of light is one of my favorite of all holographic effects, and it is just stunning in this polish. If you love green on your nails, you need this in your collection. It's wonderful!
love,
