Jelly Nails: The Hottest Nail Trend of the Season Explained

If you've been scrolling through your social feeds lately, you've probably seen the latest nail craze that's popping up left, right, and centre: Jelly Nails!

Let's dive into everything you need to know about this delicious trend and why they're the must-have trend this season.

What Are Jelly Nails?

Jelly Nails, also known as "glass nails," are all about that see-through, jelly-like finish that gives your nails a playful and juicy look. Think of them as the nail equivalent of those nostalgic jelly sandals you rocked as a kid. They come in an array of bright, bold colours and can be customised with glitter, decals, or even ombre effects for an extra pop of personality.

Why Are Jelly Nails So Popular?

Vibrant Colours

Jelly Nails come in the most vibrant, eye-catching colours that scream fun. From neon pinks to electric blues, there's a shade for every mood and outfit.

Versatility

Whether you prefer short and sweet or long and dramatic, Jelly Nails can be tailored to your style. Plus, they look fab on all nail shapes (yes—we’re looking at you, nail biters!). 

Playful Vibes

The translucent effect gives your nails a playful, youthful vibe that's perfect for sunny days and beachy getaways.

Easy to Maintain

Jelly Nails are typically done with gel polish, making them durable and long-lasting. Say goodbye to frequent touch-ups!
