]]>Hot water has a drying effect on our nails, hair and skin. Shower in as cool water as you can handle, don’t leave your hands under the hot faucet for ages, and try to avoid soaking your hands in water as much as possible (always wear gloves when tackling the washing up).
If you’re tempted to start some spring cleaning, make sure you wear gloves when handling any household cleaning products and chemicals. Many of the traditional cleaners can weaken and even split nails, so gloves are a must, and if you can stick with homemade cleaners created from natural products such as lemon juice, vinegar and bicarbonate of soda.
If you’re constantly getting your gel manicure touched up or applying layers of polish at home, your nails will suffer. Just like our skin needs some sun exposure for vitamin D, it’s a good idea to let your nails ‘breathe’ every now and again so they can heal and strengthen. You can apply a clear strengthening polish, to boost their healing process during this time.

]]>Marketed as a skin oil for stretch marks and scars, Bio-Oil contains some amazing vitamins and essential nutrients which will feed and replenish hair, skin and nails. Simply rub one or two drops into your nails, leave to sink in for around five minutes, and then follow up with your favorite hand cream.
Most health care and beauty stores should sell pure almond oil. Often used as a skin massage oil or a hair conditioning product, almond oil is also great at strengthening weak nails. Apply up to three times daily to see a difference in under a week, as your nails transform from weak and brittle to super strong and shiny!
Beloved by the ancient Greeks for its nourishing properties, olive oil is a great option if you want to dip a toe in the nail oil trend, as it’s likely you’ll already have some in the kitchen. To make it super nourishing, whisk some into some coconut oil to create a more solid ‘mask’ which can sit on your nails for five to ten minutes. Gently rinse off (with warm, not hot, water) and massage your nails to see the difference this can make to their shine and condition.
Nail oils are a relatively cheap and easy way to improve the health and look of your nails, so check one of these oils out and see the difference it can make for you.
