I would LOVE LOVE LOVE a series of videos showcasing your collection, either creating swatchsticks or a spreadsheet or a database...just anything that would let me live vicariously through your massive polish collection! (Like when little kids get so much joy out of playing in their moms' makeup or wearing her heels & jewelry!!)😋
Heads up for people whose nails stain - some of the breathable polishes can stain if you don't wear base coat, including colors you might not expect to stain (like reds). Just something to keep in mind, they're still great polishes!
I would DEFINITELY watch a video or series of you organizing your collection, that sounds wonderful. If you end up using the swatches you could call it something like "Swatch Me Organize"
swatch sticks might be a great option, and you could even use them as wall decor/part of your backdrop! my other suggestion for cataloguing is to start with whatever new polishes you get to get back into the habit of recording what you have, and then over time you can just pick a few and add them to your catalogue whenever you're looking for something to do. oftentimes with big projects the idea is so overwhelming that it stops me from getting started, so i have to give myself permission to do it "out of order", so to speak.
They really have done beautiful breathable sets lately! It reminds me of their regular line a couple years back when they were doing all creme finishes in a nice color scheme haha!
@@KelliMarissa yes! I kind of wish they would go back to the one finish collections because lately there is always been an outlier that just doesn’t quite go with the rest of the set. Then again maybe that’s just my adhd liking things in nice boxes 🤣 Also my orly color box is out for delivery and I’ve been referring to today as “nail polish day” since like Wednesday 🤣
The name of this collection is perfect! Love the spicy fall tones and color story together. No fig deal is my favorite because I looooove deep vampy red-ish polishes!
I LOVE this color story. Beautiful fall collection. The bottom row to me looks so cozy like i could have it on while drinking hot chocolate by a warm fire if that makes sense haha.
I use Lacquergram too! It's great to be able to look at what I have when I'm not with my polishes. I've been on vacation for the past two weeks. We fly home tomorrow & I can't wait to paint my nails! 😅
I would LOVE to see you do a swatch stick video, or videos! That would be so super cool. Also, I find swatching very calming, so it could also be therapeutic.
I obviously have no where near the number of polishes you have lol but I use Airtable to track my polishes. The cool thing is you can have separate tables in each section and have them cross link to each other. So I have one for my polishes, one for nail stamping plates & one for my manicures. And then I can easily click on a manicure and see what polishes and played I used & vids versa. It makes it so easy to keep track and see what I’ve used & if I want to repeat a manicure, I know exactly what I used
I'd enjoy a swatching/cataloging video! I use swatch sticks, it's definitely helpful for keeping track and for picking out what to wear. It's nice to easily look at a topper swatch stick over a color swatch stick and see what it will look like without having to waste polish. And, whenever I get new polishes in the mail, I don't have to wait for when I do my next manicure to play with them, I can swatch them right away and get excited about how pretty they are :)
Orly is my favorite! These are perfect fall colors. I especially love the 2 greens and the last color. You always look beautiful, Kelli, but I LOVE your look today. The makeup and outfit looks so good on you! I would love to see a video of your collection!
When I saw this color palette I thought it was the most FALL of any fall collection this year. I didn't get them because I already have a lot of similar shades but if you don't have them, this is like the absolute perfect fall collection. And you can pair them up in fun ways like the orange + black for halloween, brown + yellow for thanksgiving, et.
I ordered the box set last night after wanting it since it launched here in the UK! As soon as I saw it I thought it was the perfect one-brand Autumn skittle set that I'd been longing/searching for! Id previously been mixing & matching with different brands to get the look of the changing colours of the forest & leaves, so I was so excited about this set! What you said about colours being perfect as a single or skittle manicure is so true! Orly has managed to do something very special with these ❤ My order has already been dispatched, so I'll be trying out the polishes soon!! 🥳😃 Thank you 🤗🥰😘
Mahogany is what comes to mind for me when I see Rooting For You. Also Yam It Up is not only perfect for the season it's just the best orange I've ever seen! Super wearable for when I'm not in a 'sear your eyeballs with color' kind of mood lol Wish I had the money, this collection is surprisingly good. The only Orly I currently own is your collection.
I had not thought about looking for an app to track my polishes until the question you shared. I just found one that seems pretty good. It’s called Laquergram.
This collection feels like a very cozy cabin in the woods in autumn, with falling leaves all around, under a soft blanket around a camp fire with a warm drink in your hands 🤗🥰🏕🪵🍁🍂🔥☕🧡
Just made my first Orly order and could not resist grabbing this collection for fall. My nails have really been struggling with breakage, ridges, and peeling, so I’m looking forward to the breathable lacquers and treatments so I can focus on my nail health😊❤️
Ooh yes you're gonna love it! I've been using the breathable polishes for the last few weeks (including now!) And I feel like my nails are growing so fast lol
I love all of these colours. I kind of wish Back for S’more was a grey-based navy instead of having two greens. Also, breathable polishes are great because they’re suitable to where during Ramadan!
Yess love that Orly makes a line that everyone can wear! ❤️ And I would love to see a more gray tone too but I truly love green so I don't think I can give up that second green in the collection LOL
I use AirTable to catalogue my polishes. it's nice because you can add a picture and all kinds of fields on which you can filter later on (like color, type, brand etc). and yes, a video about it would be super interesting!
Wearing Yam it Up and So excited to watch your review Kelli!!!! This collection is gorgeous!!!! And you know what is my first orly PR!!!🎉🎉🎉 how lucky to get this amazing color palette!!! 🤩🤩🤩 also, a nail friend told me about lacquergram and I finally had the will and time to input my collection but honestly it was stressful Ahahhaha 😅 and I have waaay less polishes than you…but the app is awesome! It has a tiny dice that is called unicorn to help you pick a random polish from your collection when you feel indecisive! Thank you again for the awesome review!
Thanks for another great swatch and review! ❤I would love to watch you catalogue your polishes! I only have around 700 shades, so I group by brand and collection. I did have a spreadsheet but I moved on from what and just have a notebook with a tally for each brand now. I also have a whole box of swatch sticks (different swatch rings for different brands) as well as the 20 shade wheels. I would recommend buying a tone of whatever swatch sticks you choose, because omg I cannot stand when the mold changes shape/size/length when I get news ones, it drives me crazy.
Like this one - but it’s really similar to a China glaze collection from a couple years back, and I have that one, so I don’t need it. That Fig one though …. Chef’s kiss 😘!!! Their color stories are great
I know exactly which app you're talking about! I downloaded it years ago on your recommendation and I absolutely loved it! I really hate that it isn't up anymore! It was kind of like Pinterest, but for your nail collection! As far as the Swatch sticks go, I absolutely love them and started doing that long before I started using the app. I also use a label maker with clear tape to label my Swatch sticks. They don't always fit on the handle of the Swatch sticks, but you only have to trim them up ever so slightly. It's a little time consuming, but it's worth it and I find it very cathartic. Also please do a Swatch stick video series where you watch your collection and possibly label them. I would absolutely love to see that!
@@KelliMarissa exactly! I also love that the letters will be in uniform size and neat unlike my handwriting and I can get them in clear so they don't stick out like a sore thumb and distract from the nail polish swatch color.
Back for S'more reminds me of one of my favorite polishes for the past decade from OPI, Here Today Aragon Tomorrow! I've had trouble finding a dupe that really has that nearly-black vibe, but that looks promising. 👀 I love No Fig Deal for how dark it is, too!
Beautiful colors! Great video Kelli! I put a basecoat on with Metamorphosis, and I got a bit of a blue tinge left behind. Should be gone next time around though! Their breathable formula is really a dream to polish with. I love it!
Ooh I didn't know Metamorphosis was a stainer! I guess that's the bright side to having such oily nail beds haha I'm really not prone to staining at all (even though my manis don't last too long!)
It was very time-consuming when I first did it for my collection, but I do use a spreadsheet that has a form linked to it, so I just fill out the form and it auto-populates the spreadsheet -- lol it's called The Varnish Vault. I like that also because I can generate data like trieds vs untrieds, collection by color percentage, etc. Another thing that was time-consuming at first but now that it's set up is not is I put glass cabochons on the tops of my bottles so I can pull open a Helmer drawer and see the colors easily. I just paint the cabochons with two coats of the polish (or one coat of a topper then do a black half and a white half), then attach with a glue dot. I used to do swatch sticks, but hundreds -- now it would be more than a thousand --swatch sticks were difficult to store and also hard to make sense of for me, visually.
I swatched mine in a little spiral-bound artist sketchbook. I can take it to the store with me when I'm looking for new shades, to make sure I don't end up with anything TOO similar.
I use swatch sticks sorted by colour, then labeled with a label maker. I used to use sharpie, but it doesn't last well... rubs off and/or fades in sunlight. Swatch sticks have the added benefit of being re-sortable if I want to change my filing system. Or if I ever rehome bottles.
Woohoo! I've been waiting for this review (even though I bought them a couple of weeks ago. 😅 I haven't had a chance to wear them!) They're so pretty! 😍
@@KelliMarissa Oh yes! These colours make me think of falling leaves and tasty autumnal goodies. I'm really into pumpkin spice things at the moment, I've got pumpkin spice chai tea, pumpkin spice hot chocolate, pumpkin spice scented soap, and these nail polishes go with that cosy feeling!
I'd love to watch a video of you cataloging your collection. I have around 500-600 bottles of polish, and I have them all on swatch sticks by either formula or color family, and I also have a spreadsheet listing the polishes and which swatch ring they're on.
@@KelliMarissa you have never failed me with your accurate swatches. What you say, is what we get. This is why it's important for me to see your videos. Now, please tell me.....which orange is better, ilnp pumpkin patch or ilnp carved?
There is a breathable topcoat that works well for this line. I typically will rotate the breathable polishes in between manicures or overlays and love how my nails feel after use. However keep in mind this is not a super long last or hardy-wear formula so doing dishes or yard work I will make a point to wear gloves if I'm not just doing short term manicure with this type of polish. This is a nice mellow collection and I love my In the Spirit Fall 2022 collection.
@@KelliMarissa I didn't either until I bought the In the Spirit Fall 2022 collection and was poking around on their website. I also use the top coat as a bare topper/treatment for both my fingernails and toenails to keep them looking nice without a bunch of fuss.
This collection is so pretty, I feel so inspired to do nail art with these breathable collections. I did pumpkins this time and they turned out adorable!!
OMG this is a amazing collection. Does the breathable line stain at all? Just curious, I seem to be prone to staining. I use swatch sticks, it took awhile to catch up on them at first but now I am pretty decent. I also use a notebook to swatch and write the deets on each polish, brand, name, any other features (ie - GITD, Magnetic, ect...) So when I do not have time to put labels on I can go back to my notebook and go to where I left off. I didn't start the notebook until 2022 so it wasn't full proof but has helped me not buy dupes as well as the swatch sticks.
Honestly if you're prone to staining I'd probably not wear most of them without a base, I do think the light colors are less likely to stain like grays or light nudes and pastel colors so that might be a good option to try! (I don't think the orange in this set would cause staining but don't quote me on that lol!)
This is such a pretty set for a skittle mani. I was debating on getting any of these colors (I still might lol). But Orly just had a sale on last years fall collection, (In the spirit) and I absolutely love that set!! I’m just not in the crème mood lately!
Google Sheets is how I catalogue mine. I had swatch sticks but I am in the process of moving everything to swatch rings, or for polishes that the rings don't fit on, I have clear plastic dots that I stick on the bottle tops. I find this makes it easier for me to find the colours/finishes that I'm looking for for a particular mani in my Helmer drawers. I'm up there in numbers too. I think I'm at around 1,400 - 1,600. I have added up all my totals in a while.
I love data entry and even I am scared by my collection (nowhere near 1,000 polishes). I think for me, the problem is that I want to be able to see the colors, almost like paint swatches, rather than nail swatches. And I haven't found any way to do that yet. Even the few apps that I've seen specifically for nail polish collections tend to show them in the bottle, rather than as swatches.
Yeah agreed, that's why I feel like getting a keychain of swatch sticks for each color might be the way to go even though it also seems incredibly daunting to do 🤣
@@KelliMarissa Someone should make a new nail inventory app, there's clearly a demand! With the ability to export to a text file or spreadsheet just in case.
so far the only thing from orly that i own is the orly bonder base coat, and i can confirm, the bottle is so easy to open even if it gets a little stuck from dried polish
Definitely a beautiful Fall collection! I probably don’t even have 100 polishes but I have swatch sticks. It’s so handy when you want to choose a shade to purchase or wear. They’re also fun to do and just look at them! I color coordinate except for LE polishes. They have their own section in order of time purchased. 😂
Love this collection. Swatch sticks are a good idea. I was thinking maybe take pictures and catalog them that way. You'd have to figure out how you would want them cataloged on the computer though. I don't know just an idea that's a work in progress.
Will you do some Autumn stamping video ideas for us? I’d like to see Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years. I have been stamping my natural nails for about six years, but I’m still not an expert and could use some good tips. I especially have difficulty using my non-dominate hand to look good.
Swatch sticks are definitely the way to to go. I have a much smaller collection only two or three hundred. I also have a very large space so I have them all on acrylic see-through shelves at my workspace. I'm super visual and a bottle doesn't always show what the color looks like so I put them on tips and applied the tips to the shelf. I can see how that would definitely would not work with a collection as large as yours. By the way I forgot I would definitely watch that swatching video even if it took several installments.
Honestly the more I think about it, the more I would love to have rings of swatch sticks for each brand or each color haha maybe time for a new series 👀
@@KelliMarissa LOVE LOVE LOVE your videos! I have close to 1000 polishes, and this is what I've done: rings of swatch sticks arranged by color (bottles of polishes are by brand), with sub-sets within each color. So, for example, with my blues, I have a ring with dark/navy blues, a ring with blues that lean teal, a ring with blues that swing blurple, a ring of light blues, a ring with blues that are not neatly categorized, etc.. THEN I put all of the blue rings together on one larger ring so the blues are all together. Granted, I started my swatch sticks/rings early on, and can't imagine how much time it would take to start from scratch. But it has definitely been helpful to have them organized in this way. I'd also love to see you Swatch With Me!
p.s. I write the brand/color with sharpie on the swatch sticks but it sometimes wipes off - not sure what to do differently on that... p.p.s. I also do swatch dots on the tops of bottles that I store in my ALEX drawers, I can see which bottles are which color.
Love this set! I keep forgetting to not use a base coat when using the breathable line! 🤦🏼♀️ I have a lot of that line for that reason! Lol 😂 I gotta remember next time!!
Honestly I forget pretty often too 😂 but I try to use the Breathable line a lot in the winter because that's when my nails feel the weakest, so I always remember to do it then LOL
If you want to keep physical swatches, which definitely makes sense given the drawbacks of photo records, maybe a filing system à la the old library catalogs, where each swatch has a little card talking about what it is. The swatch could even be painted on the card so they never get detached.
Hi Kelli, I hope you are doing well. My favorite of these is the No Fig Deal. I think it would look amazing with a holo glittery topper. You should do some more Gel polish reviews. It's been a while and I use Gel most of the time. Have a great day, hugs and love!
Love these colors! And LOVE the breathable polishes I own- I’m literally wearing Light My Campfire right meow. FYI I also have Kelli’s Constellation topping a couple of fingers, the combo is gorgeous! My favs from this collection are Yam it up and Caught off Gourd, perfect for fall! The swatch stick idea is great- I know a lot of us would love watching that 😂💕 I wish I had advice on this, but I think the Excel spreadsheet is the smartest, but it definitely sounds overwhelming.
I love this collection...yet, I only bought two, for now. I got Caught Off Gourd (just removed it) and am about to put on Yam It Up. I just stared using the Breathable line because my nails are so damaged form wearing press-on nails.
Ooh both gorgeous colors! I hope the polishes help your nail heal up soon, it's such a struggle to heal from press ons or acrylics but I know it'll happen!
if i had any more room for cremes, this collection would take it. honestly, i may pick it up if it goes on sale (how i’ve gotten the In The Spirit, Surrealist, and Momentary Wonders collections so far). i swatched everything this summer and keep up with it (500-ish plus about 60 of my own creations) and it does help looking over my swatches for similar colors when a collection comes out. i created an airtable but it’s a bit out of date with my entering newer ones i’ve added to my collection, and i also use Lacquergram, but have various shades not in their system and haven’t submitted all of those yet. it’s good for on-the-go checking when i’m not at home with my swatch sticks.
@@KelliMarissa I'm not going to lie. Towards the end I was having trouble telling blues from purples. 😅 I told myself I was only going to catalog two drawers and then powered through. You can do it!
A very quick way to "catalog" all of your polish quickly would be to line up several bottles at a time, grouping them by color and brand, and position the bottles so that you can see the label/color name. You can lay them in a row on their side and take a photo so that both the surface of the bottle (i.e. the color) and the name of the color are visible. You could then clip them together with a few groups per file. This is a one-time solution though, and isn't easy to add to. It would make it easier to then add said polishes into a spreadsheet though.
Kelli!! How fun would it be to go live and start doing your swatch sticks! I bought a label maker last year and never even set it up because... ADHD. But if you do live streams that would motivate me!!! We could all have a big swatch stick party together!
youre so right this color story is SO November!! quick q with the breathables, maybe you mentioned & i missed it but since you don't wear them with a base coat do they stain at all?
Honestly I'm not really prone to staining because my nails are oily so I haven't had any, but people have mentioned experiencing staining with some darker colors from this line!
I’m weirdly attached to my Airtable! I do think I got a bit too wild on polish types, so I’m probably going to casually rework that part of it. I’m also considering a swatch stick project… I also think the visual would be nice/helpful.
I would LOVE LOVE LOVE a series of videos showcasing your collection, either creating swatchsticks or a spreadsheet or a database...just anything that would let me live vicariously through your massive polish collection! (Like when little kids get so much joy out of playing in their moms' makeup or wearing her heels & jewelry!!)😋
Honestly the more I think about it, the more I think it could be a seriously fun activity lol 🤪
@@KelliMarissado iiiiit! We'll watch!

Orly’s fall collections this year we’re my two favorite lines. These are absolutely perfect!
I came to the comments to ask this question! Thank you. The only way my nails haven’t stained so far is two base coats.
That looks like a perfect skittle manicure for thanksgiving.
AGREED!!
I would DEFINITELY watch a video or series of you organizing your collection, that sounds wonderful. If you end up using the swatches you could call it something like "Swatch Me Organize"

Ooh that's actually a great point and great idea! Something I definitely struggle with too haha
that’s how i tackled mine - one brand at a time - about 20 swatch sticks a night
I wish this collection was available in the color pass... For what it's worth I love Lacquergram!❤
Oh yes I feel like they need a + Breathable option for colorpass!
Looking back on the last few collections, I’ve liked the colors in the breathable line better than the regular line.

I love Lacquergram and swatch sticks. One on my phone so I can look things up. The other near my polishes for a visual of all the colors 💅💙❤️💕💚

Ever since I started watching your videos, I am back to my addiction of nail polishes 💅I want to buy it all!
Haha its tough to resist such gorgeous polishes!!
The names of these are SPOT ON!!
I use Lacquergram too! It's great to be able to look at what I have when I'm not with my polishes.

Honestly same and same! I'm so glad they make this line especially in the wintertime when my nails feel SO brittle otherwise!
@KelliMarissa I have the same problem and it doesn't matter how much or what products I use. Even my Bliss Kiss nail oil doesn't help much.

Also, breathable polishes are great because they’re suitable to where during Ramadan!
Yess love that Orly makes a line that everyone can wear! ❤️ And I would love to see a more gray tone too but I truly love green so I don't think I can give up that second green in the collection LOL

And you know what is my first orly PR!!!🎉🎉🎉 how lucky to get this amazing color palette!!! 🤩🤩🤩 also, a nail friend told me about lacquergram and I finally had the will and time to input my collection but honestly it was stressful Ahahhaha 😅 and I have waaay less polishes than you…but the app is awesome! It has a tiny dice that is called unicorn to help you pick a random polish from your collection when you feel indecisive! Thank you again for the awesome review!
Ooh congrats on the PR, that's so exciting 😄
Omg as soon as I opened this pr package my jaw fell to the floor I’m so obsessed with this color scheme ❤❤❤❤❤ love ur swatches
Totally agree, they are stunning together!
@@KelliMarissa like slay
@@KelliMarissa fave orly collections: your collab and this one 🫡🫡🫡
this is such a beautiful collection of colors. Thanks for swatching as always!
I'm so glad you liked them too!
Perfect for fall 🍁🍂🍃
Definitely!!
Lacquergram is awesome for cataloging; however, they dont have a kot of indie polishes.
This collection just arrived, today!
Ooh perfect timing haha!!
The yellow & orange polishes were my faves, may pick them up for some stamping base colors
Ooh yes that would be so pretty for stamping!
This is a perfect Fall color story. Orly has done a great job this year.
Totally agree!!
Thanks for another great swatch and review! ❤I would love to watch you catalogue your polishes! I only have around 700 shades, so I group by brand and collection. I did have a spreadsheet but I moved on from what and just have a notebook with a tally for each brand now. I also have a whole box of swatch sticks (different swatch rings for different brands) as well as the 20 shade wheels. I would recommend buying a tone of whatever swatch sticks you choose, because omg I cannot stand when the mold changes shape/size/length when I get news ones, it drives me crazy.
Ooh yeah good point haha I'll have to buy in bulk!!
Ok just got this collection in PR (still can't believe I'm on their PR list😮) these are beautiful shades and perfect for fall
Omg!!! Sameee!!! How lucky right!!!! Congratulations to us!!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Ooh yay that's awesome!! 🥰🥰
@@Krappybutkutenailart congratulations 🎉
Like this one - but it’s really similar to a China glaze collection from a couple years back, and I have that one, so I don’t need it. That Fig one though …. Chef’s kiss 😘!!! Their color stories are great
Ooh yes I forgot about that CG one, very classic fall vibes!
I know exactly which app you're talking about! I downloaded it years ago on your recommendation and I absolutely loved it! I really hate that it isn't up anymore! It was kind of like Pinterest, but for your nail collection! As far as the Swatch sticks go, I absolutely love them and started doing that long before I started using the app. I also use a label maker with clear tape to label my Swatch sticks. They don't always fit on the handle of the Swatch sticks, but you only have to trim them up ever so slightly. It's a little time consuming, but it's worth it and I find it very cathartic. Also please do a Swatch stick video series where you watch your collection and possibly label them. I would absolutely love to see that!
Ooh yes a labelmaker is smart, then you don't have to worry about accidentally wiping off the name when you touch the swatch stick haha!
@@KelliMarissa exactly! I also love that the letters will be in uniform size and neat unlike my handwriting and I can get them in clear so they don't stick out like a sore thumb and distract from the nail polish swatch color.
Look at Orly, doing the work🤩 Tfs!
Always killing it haha!
Thank you for sharing. I used your link. Just ordered the bundle pack.
Ooh I bet you're gonna love them!!
Back for S'more reminds me of one of my favorite polishes for the past decade from OPI, Here Today Aragon Tomorrow! I've had trouble finding a dupe that really has that nearly-black vibe, but that looks promising. 👀 I love No Fig Deal for how dark it is, too!
Ooh wait I remember that OPI too! Such a pretty one!
Oh! No Fig Deal is so pretty!
It really is! (Quite a Fig Deal if you ask me 🤣 I'll see myself out 🤪)
Omg, I love the colors! I really want the thyme, no fig deal, the orange one also, love it! Great job as always.
Thanks so much! 🥰🥰
I love “rooting for you” 🤎
It's so pretty!
Beautiful colors! Great video Kelli! I put a basecoat on with Metamorphosis, and I got a bit of a blue tinge left behind. Should be gone next time around though! Their breathable formula is really a dream to polish with. I love it!
Ooh I didn't know Metamorphosis was a stainer! I guess that's the bright side to having such oily nail beds haha I'm really not prone to staining at all (even though my manis don't last too long!)
It was very time-consuming when I first did it for my collection, but I do use a spreadsheet that has a form linked to it, so I just fill out the form and it auto-populates the spreadsheet -- lol it's called The Varnish Vault. I like that also because I can generate data like trieds vs untrieds, collection by color percentage, etc. Another thing that was time-consuming at first but now that it's set up is not is I put glass cabochons on the tops of my bottles so I can pull open a Helmer drawer and see the colors easily. I just paint the cabochons with two coats of the polish (or one coat of a topper then do a black half and a white half), then attach with a glue dot. I used to do swatch sticks, but hundreds -- now it would be more than a thousand --swatch sticks were difficult to store and also hard to make sense of for me, visually.
Ooh it sounds like you've got a great organization system!!
I swatched mine in a little spiral-bound artist sketchbook. I can take it to the store with me when I'm looking for new shades, to make sure I don't end up with anything TOO similar.
Ooh that's smart! I do like swatching my new polishes in my bullet journal but I just do a monthly page for it so it's hard for comparisons haha
I use swatch sticks sorted by colour, then labeled with a label maker. I used to use sharpie, but it doesn't last well... rubs off and/or fades in sunlight. Swatch sticks have the added benefit of being re-sortable if I want to change my filing system. Or if I ever rehome bottles.
Ooh a label maker is a great idea!
Polishes are so beautiful. ❤
Agreed!!
This reminds me so much of their spring 2021 collection. Slight color changes but very similar color scheme lol
Ooh interesting take, I can see what you mean!
Woohoo! I've been waiting for this review (even though I bought them a couple of weeks ago. 😅 I haven't had a chance to wear them!) They're so pretty! 😍
Ooh yes time to do a nice fall/winter skittle hehe!!
@@KelliMarissa Oh yes! These colours make me think of falling leaves and tasty autumnal goodies. I'm really into pumpkin spice things at the moment, I've got pumpkin spice chai tea, pumpkin spice hot chocolate, pumpkin spice scented soap, and these nail polishes go with that cosy feeling!
I'd love to watch a video of you cataloging your collection. I have around 500-600 bottles of polish, and I have them all on swatch sticks by either formula or color family, and I also have a spreadsheet listing the polishes and which swatch ring they're on.
I think it could be a fun time (but it'll be a long one haha!)
Im happy you are finally switching these. I have seen others swatch them, but i really want to hear what you think.
Hope you enjoy!! 😅 Sorry it took so long, I feel like I've been so behind lately but I'm catching up!!
@@KelliMarissa you have never failed me with your accurate swatches. What you say, is what we get. This is why it's important for me to see your videos. Now, please tell me.....which orange is better, ilnp pumpkin patch or ilnp carved?
@@beeshippiemusica3164 it hurts me to say this because I LOVE Pumpkin Patch but Carved is just so much brighter and more eye catching!
There is a breathable topcoat that works well for this line. I typically will rotate the breathable polishes in between manicures or overlays and love how my nails feel after use. However keep in mind this is not a super long last or hardy-wear formula so doing dishes or yard work I will make a point to wear gloves if I'm not just doing short term manicure with this type of polish. This is a nice mellow collection and I love my In the Spirit Fall 2022 collection.
Ooh is it by Orly? I haven't tried a breathable top coat before, I don't think I knew they existed haha!
@@KelliMarissa I didn't either until I bought the In the Spirit Fall 2022 collection and was poking around on their website. I also use the top coat as a bare topper/treatment for both my fingernails and toenails to keep them looking nice without a bunch of fuss.
Love the colors from this collection. I love your videos.
Thank you so much! 🥰🥰
This collection is so pretty, I feel so inspired to do nail art with these breathable collections. I did pumpkins this time and they turned out adorable!!
Ooh yes I definitely want to do some pumpkin nail art soon!!
OMG this is a amazing collection. Does the breathable line stain at all? Just curious, I seem to be prone to staining. I use swatch sticks, it took awhile to catch up on them at first but now I am pretty decent. I also use a notebook to swatch and write the deets on each polish, brand, name, any other features (ie - GITD, Magnetic, ect...) So when I do not have time to put labels on I can go back to my notebook and go to where I left off. I didn't start the notebook until 2022 so it wasn't full proof but has helped me not buy dupes as well as the swatch sticks.
Honestly if you're prone to staining I'd probably not wear most of them without a base, I do think the light colors are less likely to stain like grays or light nudes and pastel colors so that might be a good option to try! (I don't think the orange in this set would cause staining but don't quote me on that lol!)
@@KelliMarissa thank you. It seems to be mostly dark greens and dark blues. :(
This is such a pretty set for a skittle mani. I was debating on getting any of these colors (I still might lol). But Orly just had a sale on last years fall collection, (In the spirit) and I absolutely love that set!! I’m just not in the crème mood lately!
Ooh yes I LOVED that set so much!!
These are beautiful! I don’t usually go for yellows, but I love that one too! Thanks for your review, I hadn’t seen these yet.
I'm glad you enjoyed it! 🥰🥰
Love the brown and cranberry shades!
Same!! ❤️❤️
OMG!!! Finally!!! Kelli!! I've been waiting for this one! THANK YOU! I already bought the collection, but I LOVE your swatch n reviews!
Oh gosh thank you so much 🥰 I hope you like them as much as I do!
Google Sheets is how I catalogue mine. I had swatch sticks but I am in the process of moving everything to swatch rings, or for polishes that the rings don't fit on, I have clear plastic dots that I stick on the bottle tops. I find this makes it easier for me to find the colours/finishes that I'm looking for for a particular mani in my Helmer drawers. I'm up there in numbers too. I think I'm at around 1,400 - 1,600. I have added up all my totals in a while.
It's tough for us nail polish collectors haha! So many pretty polishes to remember!
I love data entry and even I am scared by my collection (nowhere near 1,000 polishes). I think for me, the problem is that I want to be able to see the colors, almost like paint swatches, rather than nail swatches. And I haven't found any way to do that yet. Even the few apps that I've seen specifically for nail polish collections tend to show them in the bottle, rather than as swatches.
Yeah agreed, that's why I feel like getting a keychain of swatch sticks for each color might be the way to go even though it also seems incredibly daunting to do 🤣
@@KelliMarissa Someone should make a new nail inventory app, there's clearly a demand! With the ability to export to a text file or spreadsheet just in case.
I really like doing my swatch sticks! It’s nice to be able to put the stick over my nail when choosing my next polish😊
I find doing nail swatches for my polishes to be sooooo relaxing. Like doing crafts. I also experiment with nail art on nail swatches!
I have swatch sticks - I paint a new stick every time I get a new bottle.
so far the only thing from orly that i own is the orly bonder base coat, and i can confirm, the bottle is so easy to open even if it gets a little stuck from dried polish
I was just thinking this morning I wish every brand had a rubber cap lol some of my brands get so stuck!
Definitely a beautiful Fall collection! I probably don’t even have 100 polishes but I have swatch sticks. It’s so handy when you want to choose a shade to purchase or wear. They’re also fun to do and just look at them! I color coordinate except for LE polishes. They have their own section in order of time purchased. 😂
Ooh yes now I'm really getting onboard with the swatch stick idea haha!
Love this collection. Swatch sticks are a good idea. I was thinking maybe take pictures and catalog them that way. You'd have to figure out how you would want them cataloged on the computer though. I don't know just an idea that's a work in progress.
Ooh yeah maybe I need a whole album of bottle pics LOL!
@@KelliMarissa lol. If I work it out I'll let you know
Will you do some Autumn stamping video ideas for us? I’d like to see Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years. I have been stamping my natural nails for about six years, but I’m still not an expert and could use some good tips. I especially have difficulty using my non-dominate hand to look good.
I'll definitely do some stamping content soon!!
Swatch sticks are definitely the way to to go. I have a much smaller collection only two or three hundred. I also have a very large space so I have them all on acrylic see-through shelves at my workspace. I'm super visual and a bottle doesn't always show what the color looks like so I put them on tips and applied the tips to the shelf. I can see how that would definitely would not work with a collection as large as yours. By the way I forgot I would definitely watch that swatching video even if it took several installments.
Honestly the more I think about it, the more I would love to have rings of swatch sticks for each brand or each color haha maybe time for a new series 👀
@@KelliMarissa LOVE LOVE LOVE your videos! I have close to 1000 polishes, and this is what I've done: rings of swatch sticks arranged by color (bottles of polishes are by brand), with sub-sets within each color. So, for example, with my blues, I have a ring with dark/navy blues, a ring with blues that lean teal, a ring with blues that swing blurple, a ring of light blues, a ring with blues that are not neatly categorized, etc.. THEN I put all of the blue rings together on one larger ring so the blues are all together. Granted, I started my swatch sticks/rings early on, and can't imagine how much time it would take to start from scratch. But it has definitely been helpful to have them organized in this way. I'd also love to see you Swatch With Me!
p.s. I write the brand/color with sharpie on the swatch sticks but it sometimes wipes off - not sure what to do differently on that... p.p.s. I also do swatch dots on the tops of bottles that I store in my ALEX drawers, I can see which bottles are which color.
Love this set! I keep forgetting to not use a base coat when using the breathable line! 🤦🏼♀️ I have a lot of that line for that reason! Lol 😂 I gotta remember next time!!
Honestly I forget pretty often too 😂 but I try to use the Breathable line a lot in the winter because that's when my nails feel the weakest, so I always remember to do it then LOL
If you want to keep physical swatches, which definitely makes sense given the drawbacks of photo records, maybe a filing system à la the old library catalogs, where each swatch has a little card talking about what it is. The swatch could even be painted on the card so they never get detached.
Ooh that's a smart idea!
Sooo nice!
Agreed!!
Hi Kelli, I hope you are doing well. My favorite of these is the No Fig Deal. I think it would look amazing with a holo glittery topper. You should do some more Gel polish reviews. It's been a while and I use Gel most of the time. Have a great day, hugs and love!
It really has been a while! I've been kind of bored of my usual gel brands, maybe it's time to try a new one 👀
Love these colors! And LOVE the breathable polishes I own- I’m literally wearing Light My Campfire right meow. FYI I also have Kelli’s Constellation topping a couple of fingers, the combo is gorgeous!
My favs from this collection are Yam it up and Caught off Gourd, perfect for fall!
The swatch stick idea is great- I know a lot of us would love watching that 😂💕
I wish I had advice on this, but I think the Excel spreadsheet is the smartest, but it definitely sounds overwhelming.
😻
Haha yes I really should have thought of it years ago before my collection got out of control!!
I love this collection...yet, I only bought two, for now. I got Caught Off Gourd (just removed it) and am about to put on Yam It Up. I just stared using the Breathable line because my nails are so damaged form wearing press-on nails.
Ooh both gorgeous colors! I hope the polishes help your nail heal up soon, it's such a struggle to heal from press ons or acrylics but I know it'll happen!
if i had any more room for cremes, this collection would take it. honestly, i may pick it up if it goes on sale (how i’ve gotten the In The Spirit, Surrealist, and Momentary Wonders collections so far).
i swatched everything this summer and keep up with it (500-ish plus about 60 of my own creations) and it does help looking over my swatches for similar colors when a collection comes out. i created an airtable but it’s a bit out of date with my entering newer ones i’ve added to my collection, and i also use Lacquergram, but have various shades not in their system and haven’t submitted all of those yet. it’s good for on-the-go checking when i’m not at home with my swatch sticks.
Ooh you are much more organized than me LOL!
Yup right up my street
So many pretty colors!
That ending question is such funny timing. I'm almost done my Google spreadsheet cataloging my polish collection. Been sitting here about two hours. 😂
Omg! I am impressed haha it's so intimidating to start!!
@@KelliMarissa I'm not going to lie. Towards the end I was having trouble telling blues from purples. 😅 I told myself I was only going to catalog two drawers and then powered through. You can do it!
A very quick way to "catalog" all of your polish quickly would be to line up several bottles at a time, grouping them by color and brand, and position the bottles so that you can see the label/color name. You can lay them in a row on their side and take a photo so that both the surface of the bottle (i.e. the color) and the name of the color are visible. You could then clip them together with a few groups per file. This is a one-time solution though, and isn't easy to add to. It would make it easier to then add said polishes into a spreadsheet though.
An interesting idea but I think like you said it'd be tough to add to!
Kelli!! How fun would it be to go live and start doing your swatch sticks! I bought a label maker last year and never even set it up because... ADHD. But if you do live streams that would motivate me!!! We could all have a big swatch stick party together!
(also, I downloaded lacquergram but have done zero with it yet....)
Maybe I should do a video series on it! 👀😅
Love them all 😍😍😍
Me too!!
I love the colors 💓
Me tooo!!
LOVE this collection and wish I could get them all…it is so hard to choose just a few!! 😍
Totally agree haha!!
youre so right this color story is SO November!! quick q with the breathables, maybe you mentioned & i missed it but since you don't wear them with a base coat do they stain at all?
Honestly I'm not really prone to staining because my nails are oily so I haven't had any, but people have mentioned experiencing staining with some darker colors from this line!
Can you do a video with your favorite 1 coaters? ❤
Ooh yes I keep meaning to do one but it's so hard to remember which polishes are one coaters haha!
Gorgeous 😍
Glad you liked them!!
I’m weirdly attached to my Airtable! I do think I got a bit too wild on polish types, so I’m probably going to casually rework that part of it. I’m also considering a swatch stick project… I also think the visual would be nice/helpful.
Yes I love the idea of seeing all the colors at once haha!
