We Are Young - China Glaze 2NITE

I've been on a bit of a holo kick recently so here's another one! This one's an oldie but a goodie from the China Glaze OMG collection. =)

2NITE is a dusty medium blue linear holographic polish. It photographs a bit more vibrant than you see in this photo, mainly just around the curved edges of the nail. The pictures below are a bit more true to shade!

Compared to the recent Color Club Halo Hues collection, the OMG collection has finer particles and a smoother linear effect, but because of that the sparkly holographic goodness is actually a bit duller unless under direct light. This seems quite similar to the new China Glaze Hologlam collection, although they've managed to include a few deeper shades that look quite interesting!

The formula is thin and prone to balding in the first coat but smoothes out with the next. I used three coats because I left my nails fairly long for maximum holo effect! =p

However, I noticed that it does magnify any imperfections in the nail (you can see some ridges in mine above) so a ridge-filling base coat might help. Note though that base coats with these polishes can result in some drag with application!

Still a lovely colour and OMG remains an awesome collection although definitely considered hard-to-find  these days! I consider the OMG holos not particularly in-your-face, especially indoors, but with a bit of light, the rainbows do come out to play!
