Color Club ~ Oh the Irony plus a bonus comparison with Crystal Baller

Color Club ~ Oh the Irony plus a bonus comparison with Crystal Baller

Blue linear holo with a metal finish

“Oh the Irony” is the third polish I show you from Color Club’s new “Halo Chrome”-collection. It’s a collection of six polishes, of which I bought five. I’m going to show you all five of them, and I’m going to link to them all by the end of each post as I publish them.

The formula is good and I achieved full coverage is two coats. I had really hoped that these polishes were one coaters like lots of the other polishes in Color Club’s “Halo Hues”-collections. The drying time is really good.

I made a simple lacy stamp on it. I used a stamping plate called XY-E01 and I stamped with El Corazón’s white stamping polish. I topped the entire thing with topcoat, which unfortunately smeared the stamp on my middle finger.

Here’s my manicure photographed with flash.

Here’s a photo taken in daylight, no sun. This is the nicest of the “Halo Chromes” I’ve tried so far. The rainbows wanted to play in all lightings.

Here’s “Beg, Borrow and Steel” alone; two coats and no topcoat photographed with flash. I love the rainbows!

Here are the things I used today.

“Oh The Irony” made me think of another Color Club polish, namely “Crystal Baller”. I decided to compare the two.

Here are the bottles side by side. It’s “Oh The Irony” to the left.

Here they are again. The holo effect is maybe a fraction stronger in Crystal Baller.

This is what they look like side by side. This is a flash picture. There’s not much of a difference and I can see a difference at all when I look at them in real life. It’s still “Oh the Irony” on the left.
