A lot of people understand that keeping your nails hydrated is important , but some people will ask why? Hydration helps your nails bend , preventing breakage which keeps your extensions lasting longer instead of peeling and breaking off. Hydration moisturizes and nourishes natural nail plate which makes it more bendable. It prevents hangnails and keeps your skin and nail bed moisturized and smooth to touch. A great beauty tip to keep your your nails healthy! One of the best ways to keep your cuticle and skin around it hydrated is to use conditioning oil like almond oil or coconut oil. If you don’t have either ,another great option is olive oil. Most people have it so no excuses The oil has to be applied at least 3 times a day to help your nails stay hydrated. I would imagine most people don’t like oily hands especially in the middle of the day. A quick and helpful tip would be to apply moisturizing lotion on your hands and nails right after you’ve applied oil to soak it up right away. Beautiful, healthy hands and no grease. Hydration is essential for healthy and beautiful nails.
