Natural Nail Care

The best nail care I find is applying warm oil on nails after you clip and file them. Or whatever you do to it as your regular routine.

  1. Heat about 1 tsp of vegetable oil lightly. Like 10 sec in microwave. It should be just warm and NOT hot.
  2. Take the cotton balls or like make-up remover swabs. Apply gently the warm oil onto the nails using the cotton balls.
  3. Keep 2 mins. Then wash/ wipe*.

The nails will feel healthy, moisturized and perked up! There is usually no time for this right. Alternatively what you can also do is, after the routine mani/pedi or nail clipping, moisturize the nails with your regular body lotion. It helps.

* If using this on toes, then clean well. You don’t want to slip off those from lovely heels!
