Hoi allemaal,
today is all about nail care! J Ik ben al een tijd bezig met het
krijgen van sterkere en lange nagels, en vandaag heb ik een aantal tips &
tricks voor jullie samengesteld, die mij hebben geholpen om mijn nagels sterker
te maken. Voor mijn blog moet ik veel nagellak testen. Dit kan je nagels
snel uitdrogen, maar nu beginnen mijn nagels er eindelijk gezonder uit te zien.
Lees verder voor mijn tips & tricks!
Stop biting and picking your nails.
Yess, I know it's hard, but you have to stop touching them, to prevent them from breaking any further!
Slip into a
pair of warm winter gloves, before going outside!
Those cold winter days can quickly dry out your nails, so make sure to
wear some gloves when you go outside. Also make sure to apply a nail oil during those cold winter days ;) The past weeks, I've been using the nourishing nail oil from herome that you can see in the picture nearby. this is a treatment that prevents your nails from breaking and drying out. It's also a great treatment to take care of your cuticles!
Avoid to much water.
I know it sound strange but your nails will become weaker when they're constantly in the water. Make sure to wear some gloves the next time you are cleaning the kitchen.
It’s very important to keep a nail file with you, to prevent
further damage when your nails are weak. If you want to grow your nails, it's better to start filling them once a week, instead of using scissors.
Nail
strengtheners
Nail strengtheners are very useful to make your nails look strong and healthy. Especially if the quality of your nails is not as good
as it should be. The best thing to do at that point, is wearing less polish. But that's hard if you have a nail polish addiction, like I have! :) You can still
wear nail polish, but make sure to apply a nail strengthner under your base
coat to protect your natural nails. I recommend using the Opi Nail envy strengtheners. The polishes from Opi are more expensive then other regular polishes, but the quality is amazing, so they are worth the price :)
Base and Top coats
Always wear a base coat to protect your nails! It's smart to apply a top coat when you've finished your manicure, to prevent your nails from breaking of. You can also apply the topcoat at the very tips of your nails. Right now I'm using the Oxy power base and top coat from Herome! I'm very pleased with the quality of those two polishes and I love using them to finish my manicure!
Swipe away
the old nail polish
Do not wear polish longer than 7 days. Make sure to remove old polish one week after applying it, and give your nails a break to prevent them from drying out!
It's hard when you have to take pictures of your nails, every single day, but don't use to much polish. I also don't recommend a nail polish remover with acetone.
Don't peel off old polish
Picking away chipped nail polish will always led to nail damage. Don't apply to much polish on your nails, this causes chipping polish. Apply 2 very thin coats instead of 1 big layer of nail polish. Let your nails dry completely between each layer, this will help keeping the polish in place even longer. Make sure to wait at least 2 minutes while each layer of polish is drying.
I hope that you've

I also keep one of those cuticle trimmer things to get rid of rough skin around my nail bed because it drives me crazy once I notice it.
