If you remember from way back at IMATS LA 2012, Sugarpill* introduced their new neon pigments. The collection wasn't named yet but they're a part of the permanent ElektroCute collection, a series of five gorgeously bright and sparkly neon colors.
They're finally available for sale today and I have swatches of each of the colors along with a comparison to the colors from the rest of their line. These retail for $16 for 5 grams of product.
Before I get to the swatches, I do need to make the disclaimer that due to the neon pigments, these are NOT considered eye-safe by the FDA in the United States due to the fact that the neon pigments involved have not been tested (and therefore not approved) in the US. The pigments are considered eye-safe by their respective federal agencies in Europe and Canada. Feel free to use at your discretion. (I'd personally still use these in the eye area but again, up to you!)
Under fluorescent lighting. From left to right: Supercharged, Sparkage, Acidberry, Hellatronic, Royal Sugar, Hi-Viz, and Love Buzz. This helps to get an idea of the base color but the multicolored sparkle is so hard to capture!
Supercharged has a hint of a pastel to it, Sparkage is like a yellow-y bright green, Hellatronic is indigo with a blue and pink sparkle, Love Buzz is a neon pink and Hi-Viz is a neon yellow.
Supercharged, Sparkage, Hi-Viz, and Love Buzz are considered lip safe, Hellatronic is considered not.

I hope you can see the difference between Hellatronic and Royal Sugar. Royal Sugar is much more blue wheres the new color is much more purple/indigo color.
I gotta say, Hellatronic is calling my name, ditto for Hi-Viz! Are you thinking of getting any of the colors?

These colors are sweet! I might have to get Royal Sugar and Hi-Viz, although Sparkage is also calling my name!
