Three grades of green holo - a comparison

For this Holo Friday I'll won't show you any new untried holo polish, but a comparison of three green holo polishes with three different grades of holo effects. They are all holo polishes but they go from super strong holo to weak holo and they are all green. Let's look at them shall we? :)

These are the green holo polishes that I compared: (from left to right)
(Click on the links for more swatches and reviews)

Thumb and pinke - Gina Tricot Holo Green. Index and ring - CC Angel Kiss. 
Middle - Depend Laurel Green.
Not a great difference in daylight...
...but in halogen light...! Look at the difference in holo effect!!! :D

Here are some short "good-to-knows":
Best holo effect: Color Club Angel Kiss
Best green colour: Depend Laurel Green
Best formula: Gina Tricot Holographic Green
Best opacity: Gina Tricot Holographic Green
Best brush: Gina Tricot Holographic Green
Best shine: Color Club Angel Kiss
Cheapest: Gina Tricot Holographic Green (2 SEK/ml)
Most expensive: CC Angel Kiss AND Depend Laurel Green (5 SEK/ml)

Even though Gina Tricot wins a lot of the kategories above 
the winner is still Color Clubs Angel Kiss to me.
I mean, just look at that amazing holo effect!!! Whoawzers!!! :D

This might be a silly question, but which one is your winner?

  3. The COLOR of Depend Laurel Green is my favorite... it's just a straight green color and can't be mistaken for anything else. However, I LOVE Angel Kiss because of the holo effect. It looks like it could pass for blue in some lightings, but it's still just as beautiful! Great comparison =)

  5. Jag håller med dig! Fast jag blev positivt överraskad av dependfärgen, den var finare än väntat även om regnbågarna var mycket bättre hos CC.

    1. Depends basgröna färg är jättefin faktiskt! Jag gillar den!! :D Men den kommer inte i närheten av CC's regnbågar. Å ju mer holo desto bättre!! :P

  7. Hi doll,what a great idea to do this comparison, I love your post!!! Your question is easy: and the holoscar goes to CC!!!! I have made similar experience: the weaker the holo effect the better the formula. I hope you have some more of those comparisons up your sleeve - this is exactly the kind of info I am looking for, thank youuuuu xxx
