This Simple Gift Idea Wins So Many Points Every Time I Give It

If you haven't tried Olive and June's Poppy manicure tool, you have not had a proper at-home manicure. The patented bottle handle lets you paint your nails with precision, even if you don't have the steadiest hand. This set has everything for a manicure: the aforementioned Poppy, cuticle serum, polish remover, clean-up brush, nail buffer, clippers, file, super-glossy topcoat, and six best-selling nail colors.

This pack of mini OPI nail polishes is for your friend who loves a statement-making moment. The polishes are bold and festive, with bright red, shimmery white, iridescent purple, and even black.

This one from Deborah Lippmann is all about the neutrals, with six nude and natural hues. The polishes are formulated with nourishing ingredients like evening primrose, biotin, keratin, nonychosine F, green tea extract, and aucoumea. The finish is the same glossy, long-lasting one you'd get with a gel manicure.

For the friend who loves a classic red manicure, they'll appreciate this trio of reds in different shades: a traditional one, a dark-wine color, and a black-cherry hue.
