By following the Finger Nail Care Tips below, you are sure to see a big improvement in the appearance and health of your fingernails.
Daily Tips
- By regularly pushing up the cuticles with an orange stick, more of the nail plate will be visible, which will ultimately make your nails look longer.
(How to push up the cuticles? - please click here) - By filing your nails correctly, instead of using nail clippers, your nails will strengthen and can be easily formed into a shape that you desire.
(How to use a file? - please click here) - It is very important to keep your nails clean by washing them regularly, especially after doing outdoor activities.
- Wear gloves when gardening or washing dishes to protect your nails from bacteria as well as helping prevent your hands from drying out by harmful detergents and sunlight.
- When removing nail polish with cotton wool, try to avoid rubbing too hard, as this will put too much pressure on the nails.
- Try not to use your nails as a tool to perform other tasks as this often leads to nails splitting and tearing.
- Apply hand cream as often as you can, eg. each time after washing your hands.
