Nail’s shape, it’s strength and it’s look reflects your persona in a way and shows how hygienic and self-caring you are. We hear and read a lot about how to do manicures and pedicures and various other techniques to maintain beautiful nails, today let me tell you a little more in depth about how to get beautiful nails that are also strong.
First things first, what goes in shows out , i.e to say diet plays a very important role in having good nails. So if your nails are somewhat brittle and break easily then it may be due to the fact that you are lacking some or most of the important elements needed to be included in your diet to make your nails healthy. You should have food that have a good content of biotin(improves the strength of your nails), zinc, magnesium( essential to various functions of cell synthesis), calcium( great for nails as well as bones), iron and also drink lots of water to keep the toxins out of your system.
It is also recommended that you visit a nutritionist and ask about from which sources you can get these elements viz. Amino Acids and extra L-Cysteine, L-Methionine, Silica, B complex, Vitamin A and C, Iron, etc.
Yes, you’ve heard me right , the remover that you use for removing your nail paints can play a major role in making or breaking your nails, i.e to say that you should use removers of popular brands and investing in them will help you save your nails from breakage. Read the labels before buying any remover and keep away from removers which dries out your upper nail’s layer like those containing formaldehyde, acetone or nathacrylate.
Wearing nails having sharp edges are more vulnerable to breakage . It’s best to grow nails faster about 3/8ths and have them rectangular with rounded edged so that they stay on and don’t break easily.
It best to use a base coat or a non-stain polish, so that the color polish that you are going to apply on top doesn’t stain your nails . Especially when using nail art acrylic colors, it’s must that you DO NO USE THEM DIRECTLY on nail surfaces.
Nails are 10 times more porous than the skin surface of our body and hence more prone to breakage. So every time you use soap or water in your hands and if your nails are really soft and brittle, it’s best to use some hand cream on your nails too, so that they remain hard and strong.
While using emery boards, choose one’s as per your nail’s condition. Too rough emery boards can cause further damage to softer and brittle nails. Do not forget to buff, again do not buff too much if your nails are soft.
If you have the habit of getting involved in cooking and cleaning and such stuff, do not forget to wear gloves ,as these will save you from the harsh soap chemicals and the time and again use of water.
These are for extra care and also regular pampering of nails plus they keep your nails healthy and strong too. Use of cuticle oil or cream specially formulated to keep nail cuticles healthy are a good investment. Plus u can as well use nail strengthener conditioners with CF Formulas Hydrating Creme Masque as a conditioner. They are fabulous in keeping your nails healthy and strong.
