Let’s be real — the only people who are easy to shop for are ourselves. If you’re like me and have a big circle of women on your gift list and they all have diverse interests, holiday shopping can be downright exhausting — which makes it extremely difficult if you’re trying to buy someone you love something that’s super-heartfelt. Not to mention that we’re constantly bombarded with a million products especially during this festive season.
How are you supposed to know what to buy for your BFFs/sister/mum?
With this season filled with tonnes of parties and family get togethers, yes wearing cute clothes are important, but most women can agree that having your nails painted in festive colours is just as important too. Enters limited edition Sally Hansen Miracle Gel™ “Merry Manicures” collection. Featuring 4 cheerful new shades, these gel polishes do not need a UV or LED lamp to dry. In other words, you can get your nails party-ready from the comfort of your own home! They are long-lasting, inexpensive, and boy are they gorgeous. Perfect Christmas gift? We think so too.
Without further ado, we present to you five christmas gift ideas using polishes from Sally Hansen’s recent collection.
For your loving mum: Jingle Red Rock (duo), $19.90
After working so hard this year – at both work and at home, Mum deserves to pamper her nails with a fresh coat of candy-cane red tone infused with tinsel-like shimmer. This shade comes in a duo pack that includes the Miracle Gel™ 2X Volume Top Coat to ensure your coloured nails last. Not only is red the colour of love (which is super apt for your Mum), but it’s also the colour of the season — meaning she can rock this colour with absolutely any outfit.
For your greyt grandmother: Gray’t Night, $16.90
She may or may not get the pun, but it doesn’t change the fact that she’s an amazing grandmother. This steely pale grey shade is reminiscent of a winter wonderland, and is perfect for your minimalist grandmother who prefers something less bold, but still subtly screams “Happy Holidays!”
For the super fit sister: Pink Prancer, $16.90
Be it cross fit, yoga or even taking time off work to climb a mountain, she’s done it all. This one’s for your favourite sister that’s always in the pink of health — so why not adorn pink nails for the season too? This shade is also perfect if it’s an elegant garden party she’s attending. Throw on a summery floral-print frock to complement this sweet candy shade of pink, and she’s good to go!
For your stylish BFF: Sleigh All Day (duo), $19.90
The BFF a.k.a fashionista is always sleighin’ it on her Instagram feed, so duh, wouldn’t you want her to stay gold? This colour’s a perfectly safe choice for the holidays, and is certainly far from boring. This chic metallic pewter offers a multi-faceted gleam that looks amazing from all angles (just like your bestie). And its metallic sheen makes it perfect whether it’s a party or a romantic dinner she’s off to.
