The formula was a bit thin from what I am used to, but it deposited color pretty well. This is 3 coats and it is still not opaque enough for my tastes, so I need 4 coats of it, but it is worth it! It is a stunning color , it is a frosty metallic light pink with these tiny little green glitters that the camera doesn't pick up well. It is a really beautiful color. I really want to try this with a french manicure, I think that it would be really pretty with a white tip!
