They say it's the little things that count and with stocking season finally here, the hunt for cherished gifts that are compact enough to find a home in a giant sock is now on. 

When it comes to stocking fillers that meet the 'compact' yet valuable criteria, options can quickly become limiting. But fret not, we have the solution: nail polish.

Nail polishes make for the most perfect stocking fillers for obvious reasons. Not only are they small, but they are fun and a staple collectable for many beauty obsessives. As well as that, there is a wealth to choose from; metallics, dual chromes, glitters, shimmers, mattes, high glosses, the list goes on.
