During the summer months, we often give skincare and hair care first priority, but our nails also need to be taken care of. Nails may get dry from the strong summer heat, humidity, and sun exposure, becoming brittle, fragile, and more vulnerable to injury. In addition to improving your look, proper nail care guarantees improved cleanliness and general nail health.
Your nails need moisture to be strong, just like the rest of your body. Include water-rich fruits in your diet, such as cucumbers, strawberries, and watermelon, and drink enough water each day. Remember to often use a moisturizing hand lotion or cuticle oil to seal in moisture and avoid drying out.
Overexposure to the sun may damage your nails by causing discolouration, dryness, or breaking. To protect your hands and nails from damaging UV rays, use a broad-spectrum sunscreen before spending a lot of time outside.
Despite their potential for style, long nails are more likely to break during summer activities. In addition to preventing breaking, having short, well-shaped nails encourages improved cleanliness and stronger nails overall.
Exfoliating your nails encourages healthy nail development and helps get rid of dead skin. Exfoliate the nail area and cuticles with a soft brush or a mild scrape. This little step keeps the nail beds nice and clean while increasing circulation.
Over time, frequent nail paint application may weaken your nails. Between manicures, let them have a few days without polish so they may heal and become stronger. A polish break lowers the chance of breakage and discoloration.
Maintaining strong, gorgeous, and healthy nails during the summer may be achieved with a little more attention. No matter the occasion, you can make sure your nails are summer-ready by moisturizing, shielding them from the heat, maintaining their neatness, exfoliating, and giving them paint breaks.
