It actually takes me sooooooo long to get through a bottle of J.HANNAH. I’ll admit to not being an everyday wearer of nail polish, but I love the Artichoke shade and wear only that shade, and like to paint my nails at work when I’m bored. The polish lasts quite a while painted on, so then the bottle itself ends up lasts for a good while.
That’s just to say - A set has the perfect amount of polish to use each a fair amount of times, and also the luxury of an assortment. With the holidays coming up (am I starting to say that a lot?), I thought the sparkly collab J.HANNAH did with the MET a couple years ago would be the perfect set to bring in. It’s always nice to end the year with sparkle.
This set comes with five polishes. There’s two different glitter polishes - one gold (Deco), one silver (Talisman) of course - and then there’s black (Onyx) & white Cameo, and Akoya, the shimmery seashelly cult classic of J.HANNAH. It was released in collaboration with the Met’s “About Time” exhibition, and the polishes are meant to be an exploration of the ornamental through palette, texture, and symbolism.

Since J.HANNAH considered painting the nails to be part of adorning the ‘handscape’ along with jewelry, the collaboration is a perfect blend of philosophy and execution.
