A bright comparison: Funky Fingers vs. Color Club

We have a lot of beauty supply stores in a so-many-miles radius of where I live. In the hopes that I might find some of the brands that I normally order off the web, I struck out to hit some of these stores, and man, I struck gold!

After hitting one shop, Image Beauty, I scored a couple Color Club neons. OMG, those are awesome, electric colors with shimmer!!! I picked some from the Flower Power and Electro Candy collections. Each polish was $3.49.

In the same shopping center was Five Below. I stopped in and they had a new Funky Fingers collection of neons. Shimmery. Just. Like. Color Club:

I had to do comparison swatches with my favorites – in the following photos my pointer finger and my middle finger wear Funky Fingers and the ring and pinky fingers wear Color Club.

Isn’t that crazy! Can you even tell the difference between the two?! Application was similar, so was formula. I did like Color Club’s brushes better. One of the differences, it seems, is in price. Funky Fingers was $5 for the three polishes. BUT! Another possible difference is that I am not sure if Funky Fingers is not Big Three Free.

Thanks for stopping by, friends!

    This is amazing!
    I actually have Funky Fingers Nails Polish at home. I have 220 Volts (blue), Power Play (Purple), and Screamin Fucbhia (Pink). These colors are very similar. But the yellow color of Funky Fingers was lighter than the Color Club version.
    As one can see, they are not the same. Color Club is more quality!

    Your Welcome!
    Don’t thank me though. I already am from myself.

      Thanks for your comment Alexandra. I just learned recently that Funky Fingers and Color Club are actually from the same company which might explain the similarity.

    I LOVE the Funky Fingers polish! How many colors do they have do you know? I have three of em, and am planning on going to 5 Below this weekend to pick up more. That’s weird about Color Club and Funky Fingers!

      I just tried to Google Funky Fingers nail polish and nothing directing me to the company came up. That’s weird! I’ll have to see if I can find out!

    I just bought the Funky Fingers teal and noticed that they and Color Club have the same name, polish number and distributor– but, as you note, not 100% the same color….
