Rainbows in the Dark - Layla Flash Black, Color Club Beyond

I took my two most halo black polishes and compared them. Here's the verdict!

[From left to right: Layla Flash Black, Color Club Beyond, Layla Flash Black, Color Club Beyond]

Both black holos have dense, holo pigments in them. Layla Flash Black has more holo effect than Color Club Beyond, but the color is sacrificed on the holo altar. Layla Flash Black has a tendency to look more silver-gray than black.

On the pinky finger, I actually layered Layla Flash Black over Color Club Beyond. The effect is interesting in that the black base is a little darker compared to the regular Flash Black swatch, but it's also more holographic than Beyond.

All in all, Beyond is impressively dark while still being very holographic, but Flash Black still wins the holographic game. Personally? Having both isn't such a bad idea. :)
