4 HABITS THAT ARE RUINING YOUR MANICURE

4 HABITS THAT ARE RUINING YOUR MANICURE

 

You make the effort to keep your manicure appointments but are you sometimes unwittingly undoing our good work? In our experience there are four main culprits that we all often do without thinking, recognise any………?

 

LONG BATHS

Your nails hate water, and they especially hate hot water. If you enjoy a good soak just remember to keep your hands out of the water as much as possible, a glass of wine is the perfect excuse!

 

DOING THE DISHES

Again, water! But also this time, a whole host of other chemicals too. When you’re busy it’s tempting not to glove up for quick cleaning jobs, but please do. Once water and chemicals penetrate your manicure, it really is game over for pristine digits.

 

NIBBLING AT YOUR CUTICLES

Your cuticles do actually have a job to do, and an important one. Healthy cuticles protect new nail grown and well moisturised ones are a perfect accompaniment to a manicure. Keeping cuticles soft will stop the temptation to nibble so applying oil every day is a must.

 

USING YOUR NAILS AS TOOLS

This one is the worst! Use anything but your nails to open that can!
