The Best Polish for Strengthening Your Nails: the Belweder Keratin Nail Hardening Polish!

Nails can suffer many assaults caused by the cold, excessive use of detergent or chemical products, the consumption of certain foods… 

Here are some of the main causes of weak, damaged, soft, ridged or splitting nails: 

  1. Nails are particularly sensitive to cold; they easily become dry and brittle in winter because extreme temperatures disrupt the natural balance between moisture and dryness that nails need to stay healthy. The loss of moisture makes the nails softer and more fragile, so they split more easily. 
  2. The excessive use of chemical products such as detergents can damage the structure of the nails and make them more prone to breakage. 
  3. The cleansing agents found in soaps and harsh nail polish removers can damage the cuticle (the protective covering) that surrounds the nail. This means the nail loses its natural protection against bacteria and other external factors, making it more fragile and sensitive. 
  4. Eating foods rich in refined sugars or saturated fats can weaken our immune system and lead to a loss of the essential nutrients found in the nails that maintain their strength and elasticity. 
  5. Certain conditions such as psoriasis and diabetes can be an aggravating factor. 
  6. A chronic lack of vitamins B5/B7 is associated with the formation of soft, splitting nails. 

The Keratin Nail Hardening Polish from Belweder is ideal for caring for damaged nails, thanks to its unique properties – which make it a highly effective product, formulated with top-quality ingredients. Rich in keratin, which strengthens and protects the nails and prevents breakage; keratin is a protein very similar to the one our hair and nails naturally produce. It helps to rebuild damaged nails by supplying essential nutrients, and also improves their texture and appearance by moisturising and repairing them.  

This treatment polish also contains essential vitamins such as vitamin E, B5 and B7, which improve the quality of the nails. Its finish gives nails a professional, polished look: semi-opaque, it acts like a plaster and camouflages breaks, ridges …
