It’s beauty confession time – when I’m stressed, I bite my nails. I know it’s wrong, I know it’s ruinous, but I just can’t help myself. The result is weak, sad- looking fingernails in desperate need of rescue. The key to getting them strong and healthy is to use a specialist treatment or strengthener. once your nails are looking good, you can paint them in one of this season’s hot berry shades.
Here’s some handy advice from the experts at Revitanail:
How do I know if I need to use a nail strengthener?
Strengtheners can be used by anyone, but are especially useful if nails are weak or brittle with a tendency to split and chip.
How do they work?
Revitanail’s Nail Strengthener is fortified with calcium gel to support and protect weak nails against dehydration – one of the major causes of weak, brittle nails.
Why is it important to rest your nails between strengthening programmes?
You need to avoid “over-strengthening” your nails. Nails that are too hard will shatter due to the loss of flexibility.
What causes weak nails?
They’re due to a number of factors, from age to diet to climate. The biggest culprit, however, is water. Nails absorb up to 25% of their weight in water and then contract when they dry out. It’s this process that makes them brittle. The key is to avoid harsh detergents and soapy water. It also helps if you use cuticle oil regularly and moisturise with a hand-and-nail cream.
