Every now and then a new makeup item or trend comes along that changes the way we use and purchase skin products. From revolutionary items like stick foundations and cream blushes, there are those products that come along now and then that really change our daily routines. This year’s trend might surprise you, but it’s all about jelly! Yes, that wiggly substance you think of eating as a child is incorporated into makeup for a super smooth, glossy finish.

“We are a nation of glow addicts, and jelly makeup formulas are the perfect choice for those of us who just can’t get enough radiance,” professional makeup artist Sara Hill told Refinery29. “Jelly formulas offer a juiciness that you just can’t get with powders and pressed formulas. You can achieve a fresh, ‘real’ skin look easily with these lightweight, malleable products as they’re much more sheer than traditional formulas, so everything looks healthy and dewy.”

These products are best applied with your fingers, which ultimately makes them super easy to use! If you like to use a setting powder or finishing product on your skin, make sure you’ve applied all the jelly products first so as to achieve the right look, and not minimize the glow impact.

If you want to stock up on some jelly products, try the FARSÁLI Jelly Beam Illuminator, Chantecaille Future Skin Foundation, Butter London Glazen Eye Gloss or the Winky Lux Flower Balm. Once you try these ultra slick products, you’ll never go back!
