Sation Holiday Golightly Collection Review and Swatches

The wait is over! Some of you may have guessed yesterday's sneak peek of the nail art for tonight. It was based on the super simple Coewless Fair Isle Snowflake tutorial, and it's featuring three colors from the newest Sation collection, Holiday Golightly.

Colors used: Under the Miss-tletoe, I Love Yule, and Feliz Navi-Doll




The complete collection is six colors, and tonight I'll be showing you four of them. But first, here's the info from the press release.




Holidays are a time for all things fabulous: parties, presents, and polish! Miss Professional Nail (Miss) is ringing in the season with “Holiday Golightly,” a shimmering new collection of nail lacquers. These six sparklers are a great idea for fun stocking stuffers and to accessorize your New Year’s Eve look!

Miss’ Creative Director Staci Dao wanted to celebrate the joy of gift-giving (and receiving!) by reminding us to pamper ourselves and our loved ones this season. Silver screen icon Audrey Hepburn captured our hearts playing free-spirited fashionista Holly Golightly, whose love of shiny gems helped inspire Miss in creating this wish list of winter stunners.

From the timeless, Tiffany-inspired blue to unique reds and greens, these luxe shades will light up your holiday season: “Under the Miss-letoe,” a pearlescent pine green; “Feliz Navi-doll,” an icy crystalline grayish-white; “I Love Yule,” a velvety poinsettia red; “Let’s Mingle & Jingle,” a silver-spangled sapphire blue; “Holiday Golightly,” a glistening Robin’s egg blue, and “Stop Scrooging Around,” a gold-sparkled ruby wine. ‘Tis the season to channel our inner Holly Golightly and embrace the Miss mantra that “It’s the little pleasures that count...”

If you don’t the find the Holiday Collection under your tree, it will also be available online and in beauty supplies in late October.


I always enjoy a giggle at all the names Miss comes up with. I think my favorite is I Love Yule in that category. I'll let you be the judge as to which color is your favorite though.


Numero uno is Feliz Navi-Doll, shown with 4 coats. This polish is described as "an icy crystalline grayish-white", which is better than I could explain it. It's muy sheer, and you need at least cuatro coats to cover your whole nail and your VNL without a base colore. However, it works beautifully over a base coat of blanca. I layered it over Strumming My Nails (also a Sation) and really enjoyed that look. Layering it without a base color will give a softer finish however. Es muy bonita!

Next is Holiday Golightly. I see why this is the namesake of the collection, because it's unique to any other holiday collection I've seen since I started getting into nails. It's perfect though, and I'm really glad I got to try it. It's shown with 4 coats as well, and applies very sheer. Only the first layer is uneven though, and the rest smooth everything nicely. It's unlike the sky blue you might think it to be, in that a slight green tint makes it more teal than anything. If it didn't have shimmer in it, and if it weren't paired with the other colors of the collection, I'd venture to say it was a spring color!

The last shimmering polish I'm showing you today is Under the Miss-tletoe. (Oh Miss, so clever!) The perfect pine color with added shimmer to bring it out in a different way. The shimmer's a little blue. It's like a dewy pine tree on a sunny morning with a clear blue sky. The dew and the reflection from the sky could create this kind of look on the needles. I really like the way my nails look with this on!

The last color, I Love Yule, doesn't contain any shimmer. It's a 2-coat creme color. Santa's suit is a good comparison of this color. Or it could be the color under many Walmart shoppers' nails after Black Friday sales as it's a bit of a blood color. A brick blood color that looks fantastic against my skin color. I can't imagine it looking bad on many others'! It was really easy to work with for the nail art as well, whereas I wouldn't recommend using Under the Miss-tletoe for that. Honestly, shorter nails with less white on their nail showing could definitely just do one thin coat of this. I love that.

There are two other colors in the collection that I didn't share with you today: Let's Mingle and Jingle and Stop Scrooging Around. You can see those swatches over at Polish Art Addiction though.

I think my favorite for the color is Holiday Golightly, but for application I'd have to say I Love Yule. Pigmented colors always make me happiest!

You can pick up the collection right now at the Miss PN store for $5.00.
