Jelly varnish is a bit like nail gloss. It does not cover completely, it lets light through, it gives a fresh and shiny color, like a layer of syrup placed on the nail. After the milky manicures and candy-style nails seen everywhere in K-Beauty, this finish is becoming one of summer’s prettiest trends.
Essence is already used to transforming low prices into real finds. The brand made an impression with its Lash Princess mascara, often cited among the best value for money, and its very accessible glosses. With its jelly varnish at 2.49 euros, it makes this glossy manicure much easier to adopt.
A gem for less than 3 euros for glossy nails
This jelly varnish gives a very shiny, semi-transparent finish and is more modern than a classic opaque varnish. The color remains light, the nail retains depth, and the result is reminiscent of the syrup manicures very popular in Korea. Three shades are available: Summer Splash, a soft plum pink, Candy Gloss, a poppier pink, and Sugar High, a very indulgent pink red. The detail that makes you want it even more is its fruity scent once dry. This jelly nail polish really meets the summer trend: low price, glossy effect, no hassle.
Why does this jelly varnish look more chic than a classic varnish?
This jelly varnish is popular because it immediately gives a brighter manicure, even on short nails. One coat creates a discreet, clean effect, two coats intensify the color, and a shiny top coat reinforces the candy look. It’s the kind of polish that you can wear with tanned skin, golden jewelry or a summer pedicure without the result being too busy. At less than 3 euros, this jelly polish becomes a real little find to slip into your fuel basket before the holidays.
How to obtain a beautiful jelly effect with this jelly varnish?
For a light finish, a coat of jelly varnish is enough. For a more colorful and glossy effect, two coats are prettier. A shiny top coat also helps to enhance the candy nail effect.
Which color to choose according to the desired result?
Summer Splash is the softest, with its easy-to-wear plum pink. Candy Gloss gives a more pop effect. Sugar High is the fruitiest, with its very summery pink red. The three shades keep the semi-transparent jelly varnish spirit.
Is this jelly polish suitable for short nails?
Yes, and that’s one of its big advantages. As the jelly varnish remains translucent and luminous, it visually lengthens the nail without making it too heavy. On short nails, the effect is fresh, clean and very trendy.
