NOTD: L'Oreal B. Rebellious & "Black" Holo Comparison

This was one of my best ever Dollar Tree finds, from the Bijou Crystals line, L'Oreal B. Rebellious:
 
 
Here's a look at it in motion, super bling:
 
 
Now for the holo comparison.  I had to put black in quotation marks because, come on - we all call them black holos, and we all know they're not really.  I only have one actual black holo, that shows the lie of the others =)  Left to right:  Color Club Revvvolution, Icing Blackout, L'Oreal B. Rebellious, OPI My Private Jet:
 

And since I had a couple of extra nails on the wheel, I did my other 2 versions of MPJ also ... left to right is original MPJ, sparse holo MPJ, and (although the pic doesn't show it well) blue flash MPJ:
 
 
There are a few others I would like to add to my collection, like Diamond Cosmetics Chainmail charm - what's your favorite "black" holo?
 
Thanks for reading =)

  8. That's gorgeous! I wish the Bijou line was still around...I had a lovely green that I bought when I was still in middle school, and I finally used the whole bottle up. Sad.

  9. Nfu Oh GS 14 has a very similar true black base like Icing Blackout, but I like it better because it has much more holo glitter PACKED into it. It's one of those glitters that dries a tad gritty, but nothing some Gelous+Seche can't fix ;) It's so blingy! Love it ♥

  10. I like the Icing Blackout best. Black is so classic, good for summer or winter. Why are there no true black holos? Because the rest look gray or silvery?

  11. Have you tried Diamond Cosmetics' "Chainmail Charm"? It's much like Revvolution, but I find the holo effect in it is much more intense. :)

  12. How long ago was that find? Was it recent?
