Autumn Nail Care Routine

Change of season means a change in your nail care routine. The cooler, drier weather can have an impact on the health and appearance of your nails. 💅

Here are some essential autumn nail care tips to help you keep your nails beautiful and strong throughout the season. 🍂

The drop in humidity during autumn can lead to dry and brittle nails. The best way to avoid this is to keep your cuticles well hydrated by using cuticle oil and nail serum. Lock in moisture and prevent your nails drying out by applying a rich hand and foot cream daily. You can even apply balm on your feet at bed time and wear socks at night and this will act as a hydrated mask. 🦶

Maintain your nails at a good length and shape to prevent breakages and to keep your nails looking neat. Avoid harsh filing and use the correct nail file grit to avoid weakening the nails.

Always wear gloves when doing household chores or gardening to shield your nails from harsh chemicals and dirt. Also avoid soaking your nails in water for prolonged periods of time which can dehydrate the skin and nails.

Avoid using nails as tools to open containers or perform tasks that could lead to chipping or breakages.

When wearing nail strengthener be sure to choose one without formaldehyde because this ingredient can make nails brittle over time. 😀
