Is it weird to do a review of the Olive and June nail polish gift box for Hannukah in June? Yes, probably, but to be honest, I just recently remembered I even had it!
Then, one weekend, my daughter wanted to do a nail painting party and I figured that would be a great day to open my “8 Nights of Mani Magic” Hannukah calendar.
Doesn’t it just look so pretty and inviting?
Some initial background: Olive and June makes amazing nail polishes. I discovered them when the pandemic started and found nail polish made me feel more presentable… without having to change out of my yoga pants.

At this point, I have so many Olive & June nail polishes, I’ve stopped ordering them to use what I have.
BUT, in September 2021, Olive and June released their Hannukah and Christmas calendars for pre-order. I decided to buy the “8 Nights of Mani Magic” Hannukah calendar box as a gift for my sister.
My sister always does her nails and I thought this would be a fun birthday gift for her. She’d get mini nail polishes and accessories she could try without committing to a full bottle. Who cares if she’s not Jewish? This is 8 gifts in 1!
Unfortunately, the box didn’t ship until Nov. 18, arriving JUST in time for Hannukah but after my sister’s birthday.
I had no idea something that I ordered in September wouldn’t arrive for months!
What’s in the Hannukah Calendar box set?
I was intrigued to find out what was in my 8 Nights of Mani Magic calendar set.
It really was exciting to open each day to see what was inside. Here’s a sneak peak:
In the end, it contained mini nail polishes, mini super glossy top coat, nail stickers, nail polish remover, blue poppy, nail filers and cuticle treatments.
I haven’t used the stickers, poppy, or cuticle stuff (if you can’t tell by the photos, I still don’t know what to do to my cuticles), but overall, this is a really great set!
Would I buy it again?
If I had a friend to get a Hannukah gift for, absolutely! For $48, this box set was a great value and well-rounded in that you get more than just nail polish.
Just remember it won’t arrive until RIGHT before Hannukah starts so have the items shipped directly to the recipient. (Unless last year was hindered by COVID shipping issues, this may have been an anomaly, I’m not sure.)
I wish there was a separate but similar birthday gift box set I could get for my sister. But this turned into a fun gift to treat myself.
The mini polishes, top coat and nail polish remover have been well used already!
