Our nails are regularly confronted with external aggressions which end up making them dry, damaged and weakened. The use of detergents filled with chemicals, the frequent application of semi-permanent varnish, the application of gel or resin false nails are all factors which can alter the quality of the nails.
Using a strengthening agent is essential to solving the problem of weak nails. Although there are special products to harden them, we are going to offer a very simple and economical remedy so that you can create your own nail hardener.IngredientsFor a 10 ml bottle10 drops of lemon essential oil2 ml of castor vegetable oil3 ml of avocado vegetable oil.
Instructions
For fast and long-lasting results you need to be regular and apply this natural nail hardener every day or every other day. I also had very positive feedback after a workshop to make this recipe organized during the zero waste picnic tour. To properly penetrate the treatment into the nail, simply take 1 to 2 drops of the treatment and apply it in circular movements on the nail for 1 minute.
Essential oil point: only use this treatment in the evening, lemon essential oil is part of the family of so-called photosensitizing essential oils, which are citrus essential oils, so it could leave stains on your skin. Citrus essential oils should not be applied up to 6 hours before sun exposure.
