7 tips for home nail care！
by Alice on Sep.08, 2009, under Beauty Guide, Nail Care & Polish
Most women unfortunately think that good looking nails can only be gained by incredibly good genetic luck or by regular visits to an expensive salon. Not so! You can own beautiful nails by some regular and simple home nail care. Following are some tips for reference:
1. Do your manicure after you take a shower, bath or after wash the dishes, because these activities have removed all the dirt from under the nail.
2. Nail polish thinner can be used to thin out nail polish that has become too thick. Keep the polish in the refrigerator to make it last longer.
3. Try not to use nail polish remover more than once a week. Nail polish remover causes the nails to dry out. Dry nails will crack and split more easily than nails that are well hydrated.
4. A top coat or sealer is a liquid that is applied over the nail polish. Any clear nail polish can be used as a top coat or sealer. This will minimize chipping or cracking of the nail. On natural nails, a clear coat can be used every day for seven days to give the nail protection and keep the moisture in.
5. After washing your hands, apply a cream or lotion. Hands and nails tend to get dried out from soaps and cleansers. You should try to keep your hands and cuticles well lubricated, with a moisturizer such as Aquaphor, Moisturel, Vaseline. You should use an oil or moisturizer at bedtime every night.
6. Sometimes nail polish, dirt and bacteria can stain the nails. This can be removed by using a Q-tip or an orangewood stick with a cotton tip. Soak the cotton in 10 parts water mixed with 1 part bleach, then rub the nail where the stain is. This will remove most stains from the nails. Scrub under the nails with a nail brush or toothbrush with soap or bleach solution to remove stains under the nails.
7. A vitamin called biotin makes nails stronger in animals. Some studies suggest that it may help strengthen human nails. Biotin is available at health food stores.
