Why social media's viral 'jelly beauty' trend could take years off your beauty look
Beauty fans have been raving about the most recent makeup trend - jelly beauty - and with brands such as e.l.f and Milk launching jelly formula products, we chat to experts about why this has become so popular Social media is great for getting inspiration for beauty and skincare buys, as well as tips and tricks for anti-ageing and how to change your routine to suit your skin. Now the latest 'jelly beauty' trend could help to keep you looking youthful for longer according to experts, due to being packed with skin-loving and hydrating ingredients. Several brands are launching jelly products, including e.l.f cosmetics relaunching the iconic Jelly Pop collection after a long-awaited return, as well as the cult favourite Milk Jelly Blush. It originates from Korean beauty and skincare, which has also had a surge in popularity in recent years, with beauty buffs searching K-Beauty more than ever. The hydrating formulas first gained a cult following, mostly from Gen Z, who took to TikTok to share their reviews. Now become a generational phenomenon, K-Beauty products and jelly formulas are everywhere. Zoe Budd, Founder of ZOBU Aesthetic Concierge and advanced aesthetic Facialist told Daily Mirror Jelly textures are having a moment "for a good reason" and said she layers high-impact jelly-style formulas rich in hyaluronic acid, snail mucin, tremella and peptides to flood skin with water, cushion fine lines and create that mirror-finish glow. "These jelly-texture ingredients not only hydrate deeply but also help firm, smooth and support the skin barrier which makes them brilliant for that soft-focus anti-ageing effect. The payoff is that skin looks plump, calm and luminous both on camera and in real life." e.l.f cosmetics most-requested product, the Jelly Pop Dew Primer (£10) is finally back for a limited time, and the sticky gel primer helps to keep makeup in plce while moisturising skin. Infused with vitamin E plus watermelon extract and a refreshing watermelon scent, it smooths skin's texture. Dr Jessica Halliley, Founder of Your Beauty Doctor noted that jelly-textured beauty products have become an instant hit "thanks to their playful, cooling and water-rich formulas that tap into our craving for dewy, youthful skin". She told Daily Mirror: "These hybrid gel-cream textures are typically infused with plumping ingredients like hyaluronic acid which delivers hydration, while visibly softening the appearance of fine lines." The expert said they're great for a quick 'boost' and from a skincare standpoint the water-based texture coupled with humectants could "help support skin firmness and dewiness". But said the "anti-ageing effect is essentially on a temporary surface level" and advised long-term skin changes would be required for "real regeneration". Milk Makeup Cooling Water Jelly Tint - Lip + Cheek Blush Stain (£22) has earned a cult status among beauty fans, who call it a "must have" for any makeup bag that people say leaves their skin looking healthy. Another viral favourite that has been hailed on TikTok by beauty fans is the fwee Lip & Cheek Blurry Pudding Pot (£16). A tinted balm for the lips and cheeks. The creamy, bouncy pudding-like texture glides on effortlessly. It can work as a matte lip tint or blush and the pigmented formula blurs to leave a subtle finish or can be layered to build colour.

And that price definitely isn't bad either. A jar of Brazilian Bum Bum body cream made with a caffeine-rich guarana extract formula to help smooth and tighten skin. People are in loooove with this stuff and some reviewers even just use it as, like, a perfume. Yeah, it smells that good thanks to the gorgeous aroma of pistachio, salted caramel, and vanilla. And a jar of Bum Bum body scrub reviewers are *obsessed* with because in true Sol de Janeiro fashion, it smells AMAZING — with the same pistachio, salted caramel, and vanilla combo as the famous cream. Plus, the crushed cupuacu seeds and sugar crystals will have rough skin (think elbows, knees, and shins) feeling as soft and luxurious as ever while adding a touch of ✨sparkle. ✨ A pretty as heck hydrating lip gloss with ~multidimensional~ sparkles for a lightweight, eye-catching pout. You can also wear it on your eyelids for a perfectly intergalactic look. A pack of nose pore patches that'll banish all the gunk and excess oil as you sleep. Your nose will be smoother than you could have ever dreamed of. Mane Club One Hit Wonder — a 10-in-1 spray that LITERALLY does it all, but won't cost you the price of 10 products. It'll help detangle, condition, take care of frizz, boost shine, hydrate, soften, smooth, prevent breakage, and provide heat protection (up to 445 degrees). A serious multitasker. A so-dang-good Coco & Eve foam self-tanner that'll deliver some jaw-droppingly magical results. Thor may be the god of thunder, but you, my friend, will be the bronze-y god/goddess of the sun, without even needing any sun. A K-Beauty zero sebum drying powder to help keep oil under control, whether it's on your face or in your hair. This stuff really said *Oily skin? Take a look around. Do you see her anywhere? NEWS FLASH, you're not gonna*. An E.l.f. color corrector that'll help camouflage discoloration, dark under-eye circles, blemishes, redness, and dark spots without caking up or creasing your flawless foundation and concealer. Mielle's (TikTok-famous) Rosemary Mint strengthening oil made with biotin and moisturizing oils like jojoba, rosemary, and mint that can help stimulate and nourish your scalp while also strengthening and promoting hair growth at the root. This magical potion will help prevent damage with a dash of faith, trust, and pixie dust. A hydrating eye stick to help reduce dark circles, lines, and puffiness while delivering moisture without oils. Sensitive skin friends, this one's for us. People may start to think your goldfish are Cosmo and Wanda because these results are jaw-dropping. And an under-eye brightener because you aren't sure if you'll ever actually not be exhausted, but you can def stop looking like it. It's ~enriched~ with shea butter and hyaluronic acid to give your dark circles a more radiant look. The pinkish tint helps balance out the blueish tint under your eyes, so A+ for this because the assignment = totally understood. A fabulous lip-plumping gloss set for some seriously luscious lips. Your pout will be juicy as heck. Ooh-la-luscious. Tape-in extensions that'll turn you into Rapunzel but without the magic flower Mother Gothel needed. It'll look like it's *literally* growing out of your head, so you can be all *why, yes, my hair did magically grow overnight*. You'll be able to do SO many styles — ponytails, buns, half up, half down; these babies can do it all. Or some gorgeous clip-in extensions from Luxy Hair so you can get the length without paying a professional to install 'em. So flawlessly beautiful with such incredible quality, you'll have to clear some space on your phone for all the selfies you'll take. I have these, and holy crap, they're incredible. I've been wearing clip-ins for over 10 years now and can confidently say that these are the best quality I've ever used. They're thick as heck, the band is strong, and they feel so silky and luxurious it's almost unbelievable. My hair is a dark burgundy red, and they don't sell that shade, so I got the chestnut brown shade and dyed them... several times. I didn't wanna pay a professional to dye them, and I had a very hard time getting the extensions the exact same shade as my hair. I dyed them three times before they matched my hair (no bleach involved), and even after being dyed again and again, they still feel just as gorgeous as they did when I first opened the package (witchcraft). They come with instructions for how to take proper care of them, and they look beautiful once installed. I wore two packs of the clip-ins for a photoshoot, and whew! They looked stunning! They're perfection, and if you're gonna spend money on clip-ins, I recommend you spend your coins on these ones. I don't think any other company's clip-ins will ever be good enough for me again. I love themmmm, I'm wearing this brand them from Luxy Hair for $235+ (available in three lengths, 35 colors, and two thicknesses). A Cosrx snail mucin serum to help improve skin hydration and soothe damaged skin. Yep, snail mucin is a Korean skincare product made from snail slime. Sounds ick, but your skin will totally fall in love the second you use it. Hmm, wonder if this is why SpongeBob had Gary the pet snail — skincare benefits. A pack of 240 pimple patches because a pimple is NOT ruining our day, babe! These patches use hydrocolloid material to help absorb all the gunk and tea tree oil and salicylic acid to speed up the pimple-healing process without picking or popping. Abracadabra, psh, what pimple? Reviewers are comparing these babies to the ever-so-popular Starface patches. An E.l.f. lip balm that'll have you like *wait, are we sure that this isn't Laneige in disguise?* These hydrating, nourishing balms are packed with ingredients your lips will ~love~ like shea butter and hyaluronic acid, and they'll give you an ever-so-sheer tint. Plus, you could get all five for, like, the same price as ONE of the name-brand ones. And their Glow Reviver melting lip balm, which not only comes in the most stunning shades, but it'll slick your pout DOWN with some deliciously buttery moisture without the sticky feeling. And that shine?! To die for. 😍 Promising review: "Diva, stop letting these influencers sway you into spending your hard-earned (and scarce) beans on $20–$30 subpar lip balms — you're paying for the brand, and the quality is questionable. E.l.f. KNOCKED THEM OUTTA THE PARK WITH THIS! SO BUTTERY, SO YUMMY, SOOOOOOO MUCH PRODUCT!!!!! I wasn't expecting the tube to be so generous in size, by far the biggest amount I've seen from the market. The flavors are divine, the color payoff is even better than Summer Fridays… and it's only $9, you cannot go wrong. I just can't fathom any balm being priced above $12, E.l.f. always hits and barely misses. 🩷💋" —SONIAGet it from Amazon for $9 (available in six colors). A piercing bump solution so you can help stop that little bump on your nose piercing that's tripled in size in two weeks from growing annnnyyyy more. Before you totally ditch your new piercing, let this stuff help heal and reduce the size of your keloid! I know, I know, I get 'em too, and yes, they can be terrifying to look at. A jar of Truly Beauty boob polish made of an acai and retinol concoction that'll help smooth your skin, reduce the appearance of fine lines and stretch marks, and brighten, firm, and tighten your chest skin. Bestie, I'm sure your tatas already look *absolutely amazing*, but if you've ever been intrigued by these beautiful jars at Ulta, (🙋🏽♀️🙋🏽♀️🙋🏽♀️) give this a try! And if anyone compliments your boobs, you can be like "oh yeah, I just had 'em polished." Lottabody's super fluffy mousse — a lightweight option that'll help your curls air-dry into some super perfect hair. If you want tamed frizz, defined curls, and soft wraps, look no further, your fairy godmother has arrived, and she's surprisingly a bottle of mousse with coconut oil in it. A bottle of Meltdown acne oil for anyone with acne-prone skin. This reviewer fave helps reduce acne, redness, and inflammation, and fades acne scars, all while preventing future breakouts. It also keeps you hydrated with rosehip oil and is cruelty-free! Mix this into your moisturizer, wear it under makeup, or use it as a spot treatment — this stuff is super versatile! A pack of two tongue scrapers so your breath can be extraaaaa fresh. You won't believe how clean your tongue is or how much gunk it removes. A wart-removing gel infused with ~salicylic acid~ that'll help to dry out your lil' blemishes and get 'em outta here. This no-drip gel formula also comes with waterproof patches to keep them hidden and prevent them from spreading. People will def think you did some sort of witchcraft, but whatever, at least those annoying warts will *poof* away! An illuminating moisturizer by L'Oreal to help enhance your skin's natural summer ✨glow.✨ It's a perfect, lightweight alternative to heavy foundations that just make you feel suuuuuper hot on those lovely 95-degree days. Joesoef's sulfur soap that'll help with some of your skincare woes, like acne, blackheads, and clogged pores. Sulfur, *a key ingredient in this lil' miracle bar*, is an antibacterial and anti-fungal that'll help you say hakuna matata to all of your skincare problems. A sulfate-free biotin shampoo with tons of 5-star ratings from people swearing by its effectiveness. It works on all hair types, including dyed hair, and it can help stimulate hair growth and make your hair look thicker with regular use. An Anua heartleaf pore-clearing cleansing oil that's perfect for all skin types and will effectively get rid of makeup residue, blackheads, and sebum while also helping prevent your pores from clogging up. In fact, it works *so* well, some reviewers say you can actually see the gunk and oil leave your face. You'll be kinda grossed out by the ick seeping out of your pores while also being totally in love with the results. Blackheads, be gone! An Ogx leave-in conditioning cream to apply to your towel-dried hair for a magic trick. *Voila*, defined, bouncy curls that'll put a little extra pep in your step because of the way your curls bounce when you walk. A mattifying, waterproof On Til' Dawn One/Size setting spray that Beyoncé used at her Renaissance concert in the pouring rain at her DC show — and Queen B's face was still beat to *absolute perfection* through the downpour. Yeah, this stuff has magic in it for sure, sign me up. And a One/Size blurring setting powder, which I'm, like, 98% sure Fiona and Cordelia Goode from AHS: Coven conjured up. Silky smooth, poreless-looking, matte skin for up to 14 hours?! Where's the cauldron that this was made in? A bottle of professional-grade callus-removing gel that'll quickly get rid of all that thick, hard skin. Holy guacamole, these results! Mind-blowing and magical. Nars soft matte foundation, aka the best thing to ever happen to oily skin. This stuff is shine-, transfer-, and sweat-proof, will last up to 16 hours, contains *top notch* oil absorbing powers, I mean ~powders~, and is OXIDIZATION RESISTANT!! Dreams do come true. A lightweight, suuuper gentle Cosrx mild gel cleanser that'll help remove skin impurities while simultaneously strengthening your skin's protective barrier. Your skin has *slightly* acidic natural pH levels that this low pH cleanser will balance out better than peanut butter balances out jelly. A match made in heaven: this stuff and your gorgeous skin. A roll-on after-shave treatment because shaving seems great — ya know, the super smooth legs you can't stop touching — but you also know the razor bumps are on their way. This'll help you prevent AND get rid of those pesky suckers. Plus, it'll do the same for ingrown hairs, so you won't have to deal with the beach-day annoyance of a pus-filled bump. A nail veil concealer that'll help smooth and hide any imperfections (if you even have any, you perfect little human, you). This sheer, buildable polish will have your nails looking like you just came fresh out of a salon. A bottle of Paula's Choice Salicylic Acid Exfoliant to help unclog and diminish large pores. This leave-on, fragrance-free exfoliant is gentle enough for all skin types and exfoliates dead skin cells, leaving you looking fresh and hydrated.
