The ten commandments for taking care of your nails

The ten commandments for taking care of your nails

They say the eyes are the mirror of the soul, but so are the nails! Indeed, the condition of your hands and nails says a lot about your lifestyle, your health, how well you look after yourself and the effect you want to make on others …  

Stressed about exams? You might bite your nails. 

Tired and short of magnesium? Your nails might split into layers. 

Do you smoke? Your nails might turn yellow. 

Are you the sophisticated type? Your nails may be beautifully manicured and need specific care. 

Do you use a lot of detergent products? Your nails might be weakened and brittle. 

 

Here is all our advice for taking care of your nails and showing healthy hands to those around you

# 1 Wear rubber gloves before every dish-washing session, use of detergent products or any contact with water

# 2 Garden with gloves to avoid the risk of cuts and torn hangnails that can become infected

# 3 Use a gentle acetone-free remover to take off your nail polish, such as our NAIL POLISH REMOVER Sweet Orange Essential Oil.

# 4 Don’t cut your cuticles, but become a fan of our EXPRESS EXFOLIATING GEL
Cuticles (a favourite of our beloved Instagrammer @storymum)

# 5 Give yourself a quick manicure at home regularly, thanks to our NAIL CARE KIT: EXPRESS MANICURE ROUTINE AT HOME

# 6 Depending on your concerns, use one of our treatment polishes: the BITTER NAIL POLISH Bitten Nails, the HARDENING POLISH Nails Keratin (to repair and camouflage ridges and breaks in your nails), the STRENGTHENING TREATMENT POLISH Nails AHA (to strengthen weakened, splitting, brittle, ridged nails), the STRENGTHENING TREATMENT POLISH Nails Ceramides (to strengthen weakened, splitting, brittle, ridged nails), the VITAMIN-ENRICHED TREATMENT POLISH Nails (for weakened, dry, brittle nails), the ULTRA-SHINE POLISH Nails Diamond Powder (to reinforce the structure and achieve strong, smooth, glossy nails) 

# 7 Renew your treatment polish every two days. 

# 8 Moisturise your nails and cuticles with our care products: the REGENERATING SERUM WITH MYRRH EXTRACT (perfect for nails damaged by false nails, injuries or nail biting) & the NOURISHING NAIL AND CUTICLE OIL (ideal for moisturising, nourishing, regenerating and protecting nails while softening the cuticles). These two products will effectively complement the action of your treatment polish.
