Hands are our calling card, and well-groomed nails can highlight our personality and style. Proper hand and nail care not only improves their appearance but also affects our well-being and confidence. Have you ever wondered how to achieve that perfect effect everyone dreams of? Today, we will share some proven tips and our personal experiences on caring for hands and nails.
Why is hand and nail care important?
Hands are exposed to many external factors – from detergents to changing weather conditions. All of this can lead to dry skin and weakened nails. Well-groomed hands and nails are not just about aesthetics but also health. Regular care can prevent many problems, such as brittle nails or cracking cuticles.
Basic care principles
1. Moisturizing – the key to success
Regular moisturizing of hand skin is essential. It’s worth investing in high-quality moisturizing creams that will protect the skin from moisture loss. We personally recommend creams with shea butter or aloe, which perfectly regenerate dry skin.
2. Protection against external factors
In winter, when the temperature drops, don’t forget gloves. In summer, it’s worth applying a UV filter cream to protect the skin from the harmful effects of sunlight.
3. Regular manicure
Regular visits to a beautician can work wonders. A professional manicure not only improves the appearance of our hands but also helps maintain healthy nails. Remember, you don’t always have to opt for colorful polish – a classic manicure with clear polish also looks elegant and neat.
How to achieve a perfect effect at home?
We don’t always have time for a visit to the beautician, but that doesn’t mean we have to give up beautiful nails. Here are a few steps to help you achieve a perfect effect in the comfort of your home.
1. Preparing the nails
Start by removing old polish and gently filing the nails. It’s important to use a file with the right grit that won’t damage the nail plate.
2. Softening cuticles
Soak your hands in warm water with olive oil or a special cuticle softening solution. This will make it easier to push back and remove them.
3. Polishing and care
Use a nail buffer to give them shine. Then apply a conditioner or base coat that will strengthen the nail plate.
4. Painting
Choose your favorite nail polish color and apply it, starting from the center of the nail. Remember to use thin layers and wait for each to dry well.
5. Finishing
Finally, apply a top coat that will extend the polish’s durability and give the nails a beautiful shine.
