5 mistakes not to make with your nails
Our nails are truly miniature works of art. And like any work of art, it is important to take care of it. Here are 5 things to avoid to be glamorous to the end of your nails! Discover without further delay the gestures to avoid to have healthy nails.
1. forgetting to apply a base
This is a recurring mistake that we have all made. Not applying base before applying nail polish is the best way to weaken them. It is therefore very strongly recommended to apply a transparent base, so that the pigments of the varnish do not have any harmful effects on your nails and so that they are reinforced.
2. using a nail polish remover containing acetone
Always pay attention to the composition of your nail polish remover and avoid using one that contains acetone. It is a component that is much too aggressive. In addition to irritating your skin, acetone weakens your nails.
3. cut your cuticles
Here is a habit that is also very common and should be banned. Without cuticles, the contours of the nails no longer have any protection. In addition, when they grow back, the cuticles have a scaly and unattractive appearance. We therefore avoid cutting them, we prefer to push them back!
4. push back dry cuticles
Push back your cuticles. For the well-being of your hands, be sure to soften them well before proceeding with this step. For this, you can perform a hand bath beforehand. Then, the cuticles can be pushed back with a wooden stick more easily and painlessly.
5. forgetting to disinfect your manicure equipment
Hygiene is essential: the outline and underside of our nails are breeding grounds for bacteria. It is therefore very important to disinfect all your beauty utensils, and precisely there of manicure, before taking care of our hands.
