Do your nails end up breaking a lot? Here are 2 home remedies to help strengthen brittle nails and promote growth
Whether you eat your nails or just the lack of vitamins in your system that leads to brittle nails, nobody loves nails that break off even before they are shaped into the right shape. While eating a healthy diet is paramount to healthy nails, you can even resort to home remedies if you want quick results. While gel nails have replaced a good home manicure, it doesn’t solve the problem of weak nails. To ensure that your manicure looks healthy and that you have strong nails, here are the top 2 home remedies to try.
Vaseline | Vitamin E – night treatment
There is very little difference between dry nails and a dry nail bed. If your cuticles are extremely dry, it means that your nails are not receiving enough moisture as they should, resulting in constant breakage. To counteract this, all you need to do is take petroleum jelly, popularly known as petroleum jelly, and mix 2-3 vitamin E capsules in it. As a personal trick, I like to make a small container out of the mixture and use it every night before bed. Make sure you only apply the mixture to the cuticles and avoid the nails. Use this home remedy for 2 months and you will see the difference for yourself!
Soak the lemon
Lemon was the one ingredient that everyone has a love-hate relationship with. While some love it for their home remedies, others hate the fact that it contains many acidic properties. However, when it comes to your nails, it definitely works wonders. The acidity helps lighten the nails, remove stains, and strengthen them at the same time. The vitamin C content is what your nails need. All you have to do is rub a lemon wedge directly on your nails every other day or use a cotton pad filled with lemon juice on your nails. Do this every other day for 5 minutes and follow the home remedies above. You will see your nails strengthen in no time!
