Winter nails are officially entering their glossy, glassy era, and nothing delivers translucent depth quite like the brand-new Light Elegance P+ Jellies Collection. Whether you’re a nail professional looking to elevate your seasonal menu or a client searching for your next set, jelly shades offer endless possibilities with just the right touch of colour and glow.
In this guide, we’re sharing three pro-approved ways to wear your LE Jellies; all easy to recreate, highly customisable, and perfect for winter trends like cat eye, tortie, aura nails, chrome overlays, and more.
What Makes LE Jellies So Special?
Crafted with Light Elegance’s HEMA Monomer–free, pro-grade formulation, these Jellies apply beautifully sheer with buildable translucence. Think:
- Smooth, even application
- Glossy, glass-like finish
- Stunning colour with visible depth
- Safe, premium ingredients your clients can trust
This collection is releasing Friday 21st November at 6pm (UK & Ireland), with dispatch beginning Monday 24th; and you’ll want to be ready.
1. Layering Jellies in Nail Art
If you love soft depth and subtle tonal transitions, Jellies are a dream. Their sheer finish makes them perfect for:
- Tortie details
- Layered petals or abstract art
- Aura rings and diffused blends
- Layering over hand-painted lines for a softened effect
Because the colour remains translucent, every stroke builds dimension without becoming heavy or muddy. Professionals can create high-level looks quickly, ideal for busy winter schedules.
2. Layering Over Cat Eye for That Velvety Glow
Cat eye gels are already mesmerising, but pair them with a jelly overlay and they become next-level velvet. The Jellies shift the tone of your cat eye without covering the magnetic effect, allowing you to create:
- Soft aura cat eye
- Blue, green or fuchsia velvet nails
- Deepened winter tones
- Sheer magnetic gradients
This combo is trending heavily right now, especially in blue, moss, and berry tones.
Pro tip: Apply the cat eye, cure, then layer the Jelly on top to keep the magnetic effect shining through.
3. Layering Over Glitter for Luxe Sparkle
If you want nails that feel festive without going over the top, layering a Jelly over glitter creates a dimensional, gemstone-like effect.
Try:
- A Jelly over gold glitter for a honey-topaz base tone
- Fuchsia Jelly over pink glitter for raspberry quartz
- Ocean Jelly over silver for icy, winter-glass nails
This is a brilliant way to customise your existing glitters and bring new life to your clients’ favourite shades.
Pro tip: Choose glitters with fine texture for the smoothest finish and maximum shine. ButterBlings work amazingly for this!
