Korean Gel Nails: The Next Big Nail Trend?

Updated: Apr 23




I talk about Japanese gels quite often and that's because they are my go to when it comes to gels and creating nail art. But there has be this new wave of nail obsession and that is with Korean gels. How do they compare to your every day gel nail at salons and what makes them popular? Today, I want to share what I have learned about Korean gel nail products, why I love them, and a few recommendations of my Korean gel brands.


Much like Japanese gels, Korean gels are premium quality nail products. Korean gel nails promotes quality nail products that are all about high shine, long-lasting glam, and promoting healthy nails. I guess you can think of it like their skin care routines - they are carefully thought out and crafted. These soak-off gels focuses on quality ingredients and innovative technology to give you the most fabulous nails.



When it comes to Korean gel nails versus your salon gel polishes, the comparisons are so very different. Your everyday salon gel polish is a hybrid of gels and polish whereas Korean gels are a true gel making them more durable and having more structure. Korean gels come with a variety of consistencies, thanks to their premium resin formulations. Plus, certain brand may offer free of harmful chemicals like formaldehyde and toluene, making them a safer choice for you and your nails.


Sure, Korean gel nail products might come with a slightly higher price tag, but trust me, they're worth every penny and the packagings are oh so cute. The great thing about Korean gels, are a lot of their brands are versatile, meaning there are so many brands out there to fit your needs. You have brands like Izemi, which to me concentrates more on healthy structure gels. They have a great line of products that can help you with your nail extensions. Fgel is also a great brand, known for elegantly-packaged bottled gel polish that is cosmetic-grade and non-toxic. Lastly another great brand is HoHoLee. Specializing in premium damage-free and peel-off gels, HoHoLee's residue-free formula provides weeks of shine.



Korean nail trends are always ahead of the curve, setting the stage for what's hot in the nail world. From adorable bows to 3D nail art and magnetic gels, they're constantly pushing the boundaries of creativity. And the best part? Most of these stunning looks are done on natural nails, giving you the perfect canvas to express yourself. Have you seen the trending magnetic heart trend??
