A holiday gift guide that’s perfect for the nail art connoisseur in your life

There’s always one member of the squad who has a perfect mani. Like how? How can you paint with your less dominant hand? How is your polish never chipped, do you even use your hands? Like, ever?

This gift guide is for the nail art connoisseur in your life, who knows their way around a polish, lacquer, at-home gel, watercolor nail technique, and decal.

Here’s a round-up of incredible nail gift ideas that will have your BFF ready for the new year. Hopefully, in return, your bestie can treat you to a mani on the next girl’s night in or maybe they can share their nail secrets because, seriously, we need our polish to be on point come 2017!
