Best nail masks
Beautiful and neat nails are the pride of any woman and a testament to her health. Lack of vitamins and minerals primarily affects the nails, turning them into brittle and exfoliating. Homemade nail masks will help get rid of this problem.
How to make nail masks
With the help of homemade masks, you can solve many problems with the nail plates. To prepare them, you will need simple, natural products found in every home. After a few days, you will see the first results:
- The color of the nails will improve.
- The nail plates will stop flaking and breaking off.
- They will grow better.
- Burrs will stop.
- Coverage at manicure will lie evenly and for a long time.
Achieving a sustainable improvement in the condition of nails is possible only with regular use of masks. They need to be done weekly, after cleaning the nails from the old coating. It is imperative to wash your hands with antibacterial soap before lowering your fingers into a bath with a medicinal composition.
To soften the cuticle, it is recommended to hold the hands for a while in a decoction of herbs before each mask. This will soften the cuticles and soften the skin. During the mask, you need to lower your fingertips completely into the bath with the prepared product so that the beneficial substances spread along the entire length of the nail plate.
The duration of exposure to the mask should be at least a quarter of an hour. Then the product is washed off with warm water or herbal decoction.
Masks for nail growth
A wide variety of formulations can be used to stimulate the growth of the nail plates. As a result of their influence, the nail plates will become moisturized and even. The composition has a beneficial effect on the skin around the nails.
To prepare a mask with olive and calendula oil, heat 100 ml of olive oil and 2 large spoons in a water bath oils from calendula. When the oil mixture reaches a comfortable temperature for the fingers, the fingers are immersed in it for 10 minutes. After that, massage your fingers, paying special attention to the periungual area. It is recommended to leave this mask overnight, wearing cloth gloves on the brushes. In the morning, the remaining oil should be blotted with napkins. The oil composition saturates the nails with useful vitamin E, soothes and softens the skin. If there are lesions on the skin, then calendula oil disinfects them and promotes a quick recovery.
Other mask, which promotes nail growth, is made with honey and glycerin. Mix them in equal proportions and apply this mixture to hands and nails. The mixture is left to act overnight, and in the morning the hands are rinsed with warm water.
Masks for strengthening nails
A mask with hot ground pepper will help to make nails strong. For such a mask, mix a small spoonful of ground hot pepper and a large spoonful of cream of a greasy consistency. Add 15 ml of water to the mixture. The composition is heated in a water bath and applied to the nails for 20 minutes. The mask, due to the presence of red pepper in the composition, has a warming effect, so it can be done once a month.
You can make a mask with heated beeswax every day. Heat a small spoonful of beeswax in a water bath, mix with hard-boiled yolk and add 2 small tablespoons of peach oil. The mass is applied to the nails all night, wearing gloves on top.
