Happy Friday everyone! Can you believe the first week of 2016 is already here?? Time is just flyin' ! I went to my local Ulta the other day and I saw they had the new OPI Hello Kitty collection...I died on the spot. I'm a HUGE Hello Kitty fan (ask anyone who knows me haha) so I'll definitely be picking up a couple of those ;)
Anyway onto what I have today. I have 2 polishes from Orly's holiday collection. I feel like a lot of times Orly is left in the dust compared to other brands when they release new collections, like I never even heard about this collection until I walked into Sally Beauty to get more acetone! It's a shame because they come up with some really beautiful and unique polishes...anyway my thoughts and swatches on the two I picked up after the jump!
15 Minutes of Fame is a red jelly with holographic, pink, yellow, and a bunch of other glitters with flakies as well. This is so squishy and pretty! But because it is a heavy-glitter jelly, the formula can become really thick on your nails quite quickly if you don't let the coats dry in between. For the photos below, I used 3 coats by itself on my pointer and ring fingers and 1 coat over OPI Dutch Tulips on my middle and ring fingers, all with topcoat.

Frenemy is a black jelly with holographic and silver glitters along with flakies as well. I like to think of this as 15 Minutes of Fame's black twin sister haha. The formula was pretty much the same, except this one wasn't as pigmented when wore alone. For these photos as well, I used 3 coats by itself on my pointer and ring fingers and 1 coat over Color Club Where's The Soiree on my middle and pinky fingers, all with topcoat.

The holo glitters didn't want to show up for me :( |

Overall, I think these are super pretty when you layer them because the glitter really shines through. Alone they kind of get a little too thick for my liking, so I'll probably wear them layered instead! I've only seen this collection at Sally Beauty other than online, so if you're looking to pick something up from this collection, I recommend going online or to Sally's!
