[Swatch] & [Comparison] Color Club- Harp On It



Here is Color Club- Harp On It from the highly anticipated Halo Hues collection!  I had to wait quite a few days for some sun so I could swatch this.



Artificial light, two coats:


Window- filtered daylight:


Outside, shade:


Sun!





It's a really vibrant linear holo!  I wasn't expecting these to be that holographic, to be honest.  I'm pleasantly surprised.





Formula: This is one of the best holographic formulas I have encountered.  It's not thin, only needs two coats, and absolutely does not drag at all!  It applies like a regular polish.  Love.

That said, this type of formula seems prone to bubbling if you use coats that are too thick, so be careful.  I had bubbling issues with both Harp On It and Halo-graphic, because I habitually use thick coats (user error).


Silver holographic goodness comparison time!


Butter London- Dodgy Barnett, Color Club- Harp On It, Color Club- Worth The Risque

Under artificial lighting, they all look relatively similar:


But, not in the sun:


You can see that Harp On It is a much stronger holo than either Butter London- Dodgy Barnett or Color Club- Worth The Risque!

It reminds me of Nfu Oh- #61, but without the terrible draggy formula!  Is this the new silver linear holographic holy grail? I think so!



It's worth noting that Butter London- Dodgy Barnett takes three coats for opacity, while both Color Clubs need just two coats (although Worth The Risque is a bit thinner than Harp On It).

What do you think?  Is there a reason to own all three?  Personally, I will be purging Dodgy Barnett and Worth The Risque, as I can't see myself ever wearing them when I have Harp On It around.

      I'm sure you know, but sometimes you can find sets in Ross or TJ Maxx. Although not these holos, because they're too new. :)
