Nails Nails Nails

1. To keep your nails hydrated, rub a small amount of petroleum jelly into your cuticle and the skin surrounding your nails every evening before you go to bed or whenever your nails feel dry.
2. Wear rubber gloves whenever you do housework or wash dishes. Most household chores, from gardening to scrubbing the bathroom to washing dishes, are murderous on your nails. To protect your digits from dirt and harsh cleaners, cover them with vinyl gloves whenever it’s chore time. And for extra hand softness, apply hand cream before you put on the rubber gloves.
3. When pushing back your cuticles (it is not necessary to cut them) come in at a 45-degree angle and be very gentle. Otherwise the cuticle will become damaged, weakening the entire nail,
4. Dry your hands for at least two minutes after doing the dishes, taking a bath/shower, etc. Also dry your toes thoroughly after swimming or showering.
5. Add a glass of milk and a hard-boiled egg to your daily diet. Rich in zinc, they’ll do wonders for your nails, especially if your nails are spotted with white, a sign of low zinc intake.

What are Natural ways to Take care of your nails?

In my experience I've done a lot of nails. I like doing them its a creative outlet and I encourage you to take it up, back to the point, ere are items and products you have laying about your house that help your nails stay healthy.The first thing I want to talk about is LEMONS! Lemons are great for your nails, they hydrate! All you have to do is lay lemon slices over your nails or put your nails in lemon juice, this hardens, moisturizes and soften cuticles all at the same time! Another thing that some people might have lying around is denture cleaners, The free edge of your nails can get noticeably yellow if you don't clean them everyday and if you wear a bit of polish. Take a bowl of warm water and put the denture cleaner in it, put your hands in the water for a while and this makes the free edge of your nails VERY white. One more thing is milk, If you soak your hands in milk everyday It softens your cuticles and hands!
I'll be doing a tutorial on nail care on my youtube channel very soon.
