Why this worksNail health is often overlooked, but just like skin, nails need proper care to stay strong. Seasonal changes can lead to dryness and brittleness, so adapting your routine can prevent damage. A few simple steps can greatly improve nail strength and appearance.

The ritual, step by step

  1. Moisturise Regularly Apply a nourishing cuticle oil to your nails and surrounding skin daily. This helps to prevent dryness and keeps your cuticles healthy, which is essential for nail growth.
  2. Use a Gentle Nail File When shaping your nails, always use a fine-grit nail file. This prevents snagging and splitting, which can occur when using harsh tools. File in one direction to reduce damage.
  3. Limit Exposure to Water Prolonged exposure to water, especially in colder months, can weaken your nails. Wear gloves when doing chores or washing dishes to keep them protected from moisture.
  4. Choose the Right Nail Polish Opt for breathable nail polishes that allow moisture to escape. Avoid harsh chemicals in polishes and removers, as they can dry out your nails over time.
  5. Take Breaks from Polish Give your nails a breather by skipping nail polish for a week or two. This allows them to recover from any potential damage and keeps them looking healthy.

Where people go wrong

Many people forget to moisturise their cuticles, leading to dryness and cracks. Using rough files can cause splits and damage. Additionally, neglecting to protect nails from water can weaken them over time. Don't forget to take breaks from polish to maintain nail health.

The pro moveConsider using a nail strengthener for an extra boost in durability, especially during harsh weather.
