Why this worksAs temperatures drop, nails can become brittle and prone to breakage. A focused nail care routine helps to nourish and strengthen them, preventing damage. Incorporating moisturising and strengthening products will keep your nails flexible and resilient.

The ritual, step by step

  1. Cleanse Your Nails Start with a gentle nail cleanser to remove dirt and oils. This prepares your nails for the treatments to follow, ensuring better absorption of nourishing ingredients.
  2. Moisturise Cuticles Apply cuticle oil to keep your cuticles hydrated and prevent hangnails. Gently massage the oil into your cuticles to improve circulation and promote healthy nail growth.
  3. Apply Strengthening Base Coat Choose a strengthening base coat that contains proteins or vitamins. This forms a protective barrier and reinforces your nails, helping them resist breaking and splitting.
  4. Limit Exposure to Water Try to reduce prolonged exposure to water, especially when washing dishes or swimming. Water can weaken the nails, making them more susceptible to damage.
  5. Regularly File and Shape Keep your nails at a manageable length by regularly filing and shaping them. This prevents snagging and breakage, which can occur with uneven edges.

Where people go wrong

A common mistake is skipping cuticle care, which can lead to dryness and breakage. People also tend to ignore nail filing, leaving nails prone to splitting. Lastly, overexposure to water without protection can weaken nails significantly.

The pro moveConsider using a nail strengthener or treatment once a week for added resilience.
