💅 Nail Art Trends You Need to Know in 2025 | Jenico The Nail

Nail art has become one of the most creative forms of self-expression—just like fashion or makeup. In 2025, we’re seeing fresh trends emerge that blend elegant color palettes with innovative materials such as magnetic gel polish, shiny glitter gel, and cat eye gel. Whether you’re a professional nail artist or someone who loves doing nails at home, these trends are easy to wear and surprisingly versatile.


🎨 1. Clean Lines & Minimalist Nail Art

Minimalist nail art remains a customer favorite this year. Thin metallic lines, negative space, and single-color accents work perfectly for daily wear and business environments.
This kind of design looks best when paired with:

  • nude gel polish bases

  • soft glitter top coats

  • neutral cat eye accents

It’s simple, modern, and elegant.


🌌 2. Magnetic Nails with Cat Eye Effects

One trend that’s getting a lot of attention on Instagram and TikTok is magnetic cat eye gel. With a small magnet, you can create light-reflecting patterns that move when your hands move.
Cat eye nails are perfect for:

  • evening events

  • high-end salon menus

  • eye-catching video content

💡 Tip: Deep emerald, velvet purple and silver-beam magnetic gels are currently the most requested colors in salons.


✨ 3. Full Shiny Glitter Nails

Glitter used to be considered “too much” for everyday use, but not anymore. The latest shiny glitter gel formulas use ultra-fine reflective powders that create a clean and almost “diamond-like” effect—without the chunky texture.
These gels stay popular across both B2C and B2B markets because they:

  • photograph well (important for brand promotion)

  • last up to 3–4 weeks

  • combine perfectly with other UV gel polishes

Try using glitter on just two accent nails for a more subtle look.


💖 4. Soft Jelly Gel Colors

For spring and summer, soft jelly gels are becoming a must-have. These translucent tones are perfect for layering and work beautifully with foil effect gel polish or floral nail stickers.

Popular in Japan and growing fast in western markets, jelly gels are ideal for:

  • bridal nail sets

  • soft feminine looks

  • K-style / Korean nail designs
