The holidays are fast approaching, offering an opportune time to treat your loved ones (and yourself) to a salon-worthy manicure courtesy of these easy-to-use nail gift sets. But where exactly should you begin your hunt for the elusive perfect option? To help simplify your nail shopping experience, our beauty editor, Nicole Saunders, researched through reader-favorite retailers, like Amazon and Ulta, for top-rated classics and exciting new holiday drops. As a result, she found 22 impressive nail gift sets worth adding to your cart, and more than half of these selections cost $30 or less.

With so many long-lasting gel nail kits and dip powder options out there, they'll be grateful you helped keep them away from the salon for months on end. Whether they go strictly nude with their polishes, have a taste for classic reds, or even prefer a French tip, there's a nail gift set out there that's just waiting to get into (and onto) their hands.

Fans of more classic colors will be over the moon when they open up this polish duo, featuring an ultra-pigmented coral cherry and soft milky lilac hue curated by Manhattan-based nail brand Paintbox. These nail lacquers boast a 10-free formula, meaning they don’t contain the 10 common toxic ingredients that you may encounter in other polishes.

Graphic nails are trending, but getting them done at the salon is an additional expense, and your loved one can do better at home. Kalolary curated 12 nail polish pens that allow your giftee to switch up their otherwise demure manicure. Thanks to a refined tip, it's easier to draw custom motifs, such as flowers, polka dots, and abstract prints.

This five-piece gift set is ideal for someone always running late, no matter how early they get ready to go out. They'll get all the essentials to achieve popular dip powder nails without wasting time under pricey UV lights. Kiss promises their mani will last at least two weeks.

Do you know someone whose weakened nails could use some TLC? Nail Tek's three-step system can help reinforce split, cracked, and torn nails. The quick and easy-to-apply products also help strengthen weak and brittle nails and tips. The set includes a brush-on gel resin, nail filler powder, a mini nail file, and a buffer to smooth and shape the nails.

One of the best dip powder nail kits around, Azure’s gift set includes everything you need to create attention-grabbing nails this holiday season, including nail tools and an array of polishes: Think demure pink and white for a French manicure, neturals like taupe and nude, and glittery gold and peach.

You can gift your favorite beauty lover this at-home pro kit that includes everything they need (and more) for simple gel nails at-home. This impressive gift set features six gel nail polishes, nail primer, gel base coat, gel top coat, cuticle oil, glitter, decals, and an accessories kit.

This kit from Burts Bess contains everything you need to quench dry, thirsty cuticles and calluses, including their Honey & Grapeseed Oil Hand Cream, Coconut Foot Cream, Lemon Butter Cuticle Cream, Almond & Milk Hand Cream, Hand Salve, and Pomegranate Lip Balm.

This collection of reds is a must-have for any mani maven. The essential polish set includes six berry-inspired shades to satisfy her sweetest cravings all holiday season long. Plus, the nontoxic nail polishes have a 10-free formula, meaning they don't contain pesky ingredients in regular nail polish, such as formaldehyde and toluene.

Gel nail polishes can seem intimidating to DIY, but this kit gives you the perfect mini-sized shades and tools to create the look in seconds. It comes with a one-step gel nail polish that only requires 2 minutes of your time under the included UV lamp.

Don't leave all the attention to your fingers — take care of your toes, too! This kit has everything you need to pamper your little piggies, and comes with a variety of tools, ranging from a foot file and cuticle pusher, to up to six fantastic polishes.

Most nudes aren’t universally flattering, but Mented Cosmetics, a buzzy Black women-owned brand, created a nail gift set that caters to all complexions. For just $15, this trio of pink and neutral polishes is the perfect stocking stuffer this holiday season.

Healthy nails are the foundation for a good manicure, and Dermelect’s kit includes a few must-have pieces to help strengthen and nourish your nails. Beyond the nail and cuticle treatment, nail strengthener, and nail thickener, the set includes a ridge filler that is especially handy between your standing acrylic appointments.
