Stronger Nails

We believe a healthy well manicured nails have always helped enhance the beauty of the hands. Usually People tend to neglect their nails even though hands are always in plain sight. So we have put together some of the main tips to get strong and healthy nails.

Moisturize your nails and hands using a moisturizer to keep the skin as well as the nail in great condition. To soften and moisturize your cuticles use a cuticle moisturizer and allow the moisture to penetrate the skin as well as the nails.

To protect your nails whether plain or with nail polish on, apply a good quality top coat which promotes strong nails. This way your nails will not only grow stronger but they will look more beautiful due to the shiny finish.

Give your nails a lovely shape by filing them uniformly using a nail file. After using a nail file use a nail buffer to smooth out any rough edges your nails might have developed after filing.

Eat healthy which will offer your body all the nutrients it needs. Biotin-rich foods are essential for healthy, strong nails so try to incorporate them into your everyday diet. If you think you are not getting all the nutrients your body needs take vitamin supplements.

Avoid using too much your nail polish remover as this products strips the nails from essential oils and moisture causing them to loose their strength and start to peel or chip. Limit the use of an acetone-free nail polish remover to about twice a month if possible to avoid damaging the nails.

Use gloves whenever you are using chemicals around the house doing chores or in the garden to avoid those chemical from affecting your skin as well as your nails. Dry, brittle nails are not sexy so try to use plastic gloves every time.

  5. This is wonderful advice! Never thought about the nail polish remover... Funny reading this right now - I've actually decided to give my nails a breather by not wearing polish for the past couple weeks. Also, when I apply my moisturizer after showering (Kiel's Creme de Corps) I always begin with the back of my hands and work the cream up my arm... I think it has contributed to younger looking hands...
