I must admit I am impressed. I picked this color up with another bogo half off (Love struck- foil hearts and glitter in clear) and I swatched the other and it was horrible. But this is lovely. Marine Blue is more of a teal I would say, the swatch is two coats. The first went on streaky and I was ready for disappointment but it pulled through on the second. This color is gorgeous. Application was alright after the first coat was down. Only complaint I have is this has a weird semi-matte finish and IMO requires a top coat.
