Orly Naughty or Nice Holiday Minis Swatches!

Hey loves!

I know many other bloggers have the hookups and get all this stuff as soon as it comes out in the big bottles and swatch way before I am right now, but I still wanted to post my own :)

I found this image of the set on Google:

I began with the gold glitter on the far left, Halo. Halo consists of silver hex glitters and gold micro glitters suspended in a clear base. Good for layering or by itself. Shown in my swatch is 3 coats on its own.



Next up, I decided to swatch the blue glitter, Angel Eyes. Angel Eyes consists of silver hex glitters and deep blue micro glitters all suspended in a clear base. Ideal for layering, as shown in this swatch is 3 coats and I didn't get coverage I prefer.



The other glitter gave me a fight I didn't feel like battling so I do not have a swatch for it, but it is called Devil May Care. It is a glitter that consists of gold hex glitters, littered with red micro glitters suspended in a clear base. From my experience with it, I recommend it as a layer polish over one of these reds in the collection.

I also didn't swatch Torrid. For some reason those two polishes just didn't want to cooperate with me! Torrid is a beautiful crimson shimmer red that appears to gleam with gold when it hits the light.

Next up is Unlawful. Unlawful is a flat red polish like any other. But this one was an amazing formula. Minimal infamous vampy polish spread during removal, which was surprising.

I love scarlet polishes!

Last but certainly not least, probably the first gold polish I actually like... Flare! Flare is beautiful. I'll post the pictures so you can see for yourself.

I recommend layering Halo over Flare for some drama, just gorgeous. This formula had virtually NO streaking like I find with most metallic polishes.

That's it for swatches for the night! :) Hope you like.
