ILNP Black Orchid Holographic Nail Polish ($10.00 for 0.4 oz.) is a deep burgundy with a cooler red shimmer that brightens and center of the nail with holographic shimmer. The consistency was fluid without being too thick, so the product didn't pool along my nail and self-leveled as it dried down, but it was very pigmented in a single coat (~85% opacity!) so I did find that when I tried applying it a second time, I preferred a thinner initial coat and then a regular second coat.
Per the brand, it has its maximum coverage in two to three coats. In the swatches, I've applied two coats using Deborah Lipmann Gel Lab Pro base and top coats, though I think I didn't apply the top coat evenly, so I ended up doing a re-swatch while writing the review to confirm that it applied evenly and smoothly (which it did). On my list to re-swatch officially! I wore this shade for 10 days and had minor tip wear and no chips.
