Suffering from brittle, weakened nails? Luckily enough mother nature has all the perfect, natural ingredients out there for you to use in the comfort of your home. These are the best oils to use in order to achieve beautiful nails.
Olive oil
Renowned for its nutritious properties, olive oil can be used in any beauty treatments. Warm enough oil and pour it in a bowl, then place your fingertips in the bowl for 10 minutes. The oil will penetrate the skin and nails and nourish them. Repeat daily for 2-3 weeks in order to achieve strong nails.
Coconut oil
Not only does it smell like the heavens, but it’s one of the best home remedies for nail strengthening! Apply a generous amount of lukewarm coconut oil directly to your nails and gently massage in for 5 minutes. Massaging will improve blood circulation in the nail bed.
Argan oil
It protects and hydrates the nail plate, while softening cuticles and any tough skin around the nail. Use a drop or two on each finger nail and massage into the cuticles. Repeat as needed.
Tips
Mix in a few teaspoons of lemon juice to any of these warm oils and soak your hands for 10 minutes before going to bed. Regular treatment will guarantee stronger, brighter nails
Expose your nails to sunlight at least a few minutes a day, as this will ensure vitamin D intake needed for healthy nails
