The Best Jelly Nail Polishes to Get the Y2K Trend at Home
We’re always on the lookout for the coolest nail-art trends, whether it’s a deconstructed french manicure or chrome nails. We personally are loving jelly nails right now as one of the hottest trends for the summer, and we’re not surprised this fun Y2K manicure is making a comeback. You’ve probably seen the trendy, translucent-looking nails all across Instagram and TikTok. If you’re wanting to achieve that look at home, we rounded up the best jelly nail polishes on the market in some of our favorite shades.
Jelly nail polishes should go on sheer without being too thin of a formula. They should have a high-shine finish and durability that compare to their opaque counterparts. We found plenty of colorful and vibrant shades that are a total vibe for the summer, whether you prefer bright hot pinks or something lavender. We even found a few with glitter and holographic effects for a truly glam vibe. Shop our top picks ahead.
