Application was most agreeable! The consistency of Royal Reindeer is fluid, smooth and slightly fluffy with a medium-pushing-thick viscosity and a plush, self-leveling glide over the nail. It likes to go on in medium coats and is easy to manipulate with a firm hand. Pigmentation is excellent, it's very nearly wearable in one medium coat but two delivers most even opacity and richest color, plus extra glitters! Cleanup is easy. Royal Reindeer dries naturally in very good time to a gently textured finish that is easily smoothed by a single layer of topcoat. Topcoat does not inhibit the holographic properties in any way.
Photos show two coats of Royal Reindeer over treatment and basecoat with a topcoat of Seche Vite.

The holographic effects are powerful and very responsive and the colors they generate are so vibrant! I love the size of the holo pigment particles here, they really draw light into the polish and create a more painterly overall look. I haven't always been fond of holos with glitter in the mix, but I think this one works beautifully and neither component distracts from the effects of the other. The twinkling effect of those red microglitters is actually one of my favorite things about this polish -- I've been flexing my fingers all day, admiring it!
Delicious eye candy!
