Change the layer blending mode to Soft Light. Choose a dark blue and paint over the non-rainbow areas with a large soft brush.

In normal blending mode the rainbow layer should look similar to the picture below.

Step 9: Enhancing Colours:

As the “soft light” blending mode suggests its effect is not very strong. Hence we’re gonna duplicate the rainbow layer to get more vibrant colours. Keep the soft light setting but change the Layer Opacity to 40%. Choose an even darker blue and paint over the non-rainbow areas as before.

Now create a new layer and fill it with a dark grey colour. Set the blending mode to Multiply and change the Layer Opacity to 85%. Add a layer mask and with a large soft brush (same as we used before) hide the rainbow part. This is done by choosing Black as fill colour and painting over the rainbow. The beauty of layer masks is that if you masked too much simply switch too White and paint over the areas you want to be visible again. Your design should look similar to this.
