Jelly nails are taking over the beauty world! It’s not a new trend, but it has been popping up every few years. Now it’s more popular than ever!
These translucent, glass-like nails mimic the playful, colorful aesthetic of the jelly sandals we adored (but our feet hated) in the 90s. Jelly nails work with any season. Whether you choose a full set of sparkly pink nails or a more natural clear polish with a little glitter, jelly nails promise a bold statement.
What Are Jelly Nails?
Jelly nails are made using a translucent gel polish that gives them their signature candy-like look. They are typically applied over a clear or colored nail extension for their glassy, see-through effect.
Color and Design Options
The beauty of jelly nails is that you can do so much with them. You can choose from a rainbow of colors like bright pinks, lush greens, deep blues, and more. You can make them stand out even more by adding glitter, stickers, floral designs, or stars for an extra pop.
Application Process
We understand that applying jelly nails can be a bit more difficult than regular nail polish. Normally, you would have to add an extension to the nail with a clear tip, then add the clear-colored layer of nail gel. A UV or LED light is needed to cure each layer of polish.
Durability and Maintenance
Jelly nails last as long as most gel nails. They can last up to three weeks with proper care. To maintain their glossy look, keep your hands moisturized and where gloves whenever you clean with chemicals.
Removal Process
Like other gel nails, removal should be done at a salon so not much damage will be done to the natural nail. The process for at-home removal is soaking the nails in 100% acetone and gently taking off the polish. You can also buy acetone that has natural oils in it to save your nails from lots of damage.
