Color Club Halo Hues 2013: Review & Swatches

I am super excited to share two of Color Club's newest Halo Hues with you today! I have been dying to try some Halo Hues since the first batch debuted last fall, but they never showed up at the one (and only) store near me that carries Color Club. Thankfully, these babies were so worth the wait!

First up is Over The Moon, a light blue linear holo. This is two coats. I took all of these swatches in indoor lighting, without flash, to show how insanely vivid the holo is, even without sunlight!


Then there's Beyond, a black linear holo. Although the base color is obviously much darker than Over The Moon, the holographic effect is still just as vibrant. This is what every black holo should be like. Plus, as if its flawlessly gorgeous holo isn't enough, this is a one-coater! Ohhhh yeaaahhhh.


And then some bottle pr0n as the cherry on top...


These are two of the prettiest, strongest holos I've ever had the pleasure of wearing. The formulas are fabulous and don't require any type of special basecoat. I applied both of these over bare nails and they glided right on. They also hold up very well. After three days, I only experienced one medium-sized chip and some minor tipwear with Beyond and Over The Moon still looked good as new after two days. Both of these manis were worn without topcoat, which makes their durability all the more impressive!

I am ridiculously thrilled with these and I definitely want need to get some more Halo Hues! I love seeing a mainstream brand take on linear holos and do them 100% right, from the intensity of the holographic effect to the ease of application. I really cannot recommend these highly enough!


Disclosure: These polishes were sent to me for my honest review. For more information, please see my disclosure policy.
