A lot of women tend to forget about their nails because of their very hectic schedule. What every woman should know is that no matter how busy you get with work and family, you should still find the time to care for your nails at home. No matter how much effort you put into selecting your clothes and creating the perfect outfit, you will still not be able to create the right image if your nails look unkempt.

Some women neglect their nails because they are too busy. They do not have the time to go to a salon to have their nails done. Other women neglect their nails because they do not have the extra money to spend for a manicure at a salon. If that is the case for you then you can always care for your nails at home. Doing your own manicure at home is a lot cheaper and you can do it at your own convenient time.

You do not just paint your nails with some nail polish when you give yourself a manicure at home. You also have to make sure that you take good care of your nails at home. You can do this by first exfoliating the dead skin on the sides of your nails and your hands. You can buy an exfoliating scrub or you can make one yourself out of ingredients found around the house. To make an exfoliating scrub for your nails at home, you just need to mix one tablespoon of olive oil and some salt. Just rub the mixture all over your hands and nails to get rid of all the dead skin. This will be a bit messy so be sure to prepare some towels when you exfoliate your nails at home.

After exfoliating, wash your hands and make sure all of the oil and salt are removed. Once that is done, you can start to manicure your nails at home. You can start by cutting the nails to your desired length and then shaping your nails at home. When you shape your nails at home, you can use a nail file or an emery board. Make sure to file your nails in only one direction. Filing your nails in two directions will damage your nails and cause them to split or break.

After cutting and filing your nails at home, you can apply the nail color that you have chosen. You can also just leave your nails bare if you are not a fan of colored nails. After that you can apply some moisturizer and your hands and your nails will be feeling very moisturized and clean. You can care for your nails at home every week without having to spend a lot of money at the salon.

Making Your Brittle Nails Stronger

If you have always wanted long glamorous natural nails, or even medium length nails, you might be frustrated when your nails peel, chip, fray, split or just break off as soon as they get close to the length you want.

Some people have ridges in their nails that grow out as part of the nail then cause issues when they become exposed at the nail tip. Otherwise simply have very brittle delicate nails that seem impossible to grow or keep all at one length.

Well, most of us don't have the luxury of living like a pampered princess, and we have to use our hands to cook, clean, wash dishes, do our hair, type and all of the other infinite tasks that require us to put our nails in danger of becoming damaged. However, there are a few things you can do to keep your hands and nails looking well groomed and beautiful while still living a normal life. By watching your diet and following specific care tips, you can make your brittle nails stronger and help them to grow longer.

Nail Care and Maintenance

Wear Gloves - Water is your nail's biggest enemy. Feeling your hands in warm soapy water is one of the best feelings, but you might notice that when you are done washing dishes, shampooing your hair or washing your dog, your nail polish might be peeled off or you'll see more frays and splits in your nails. Nails are made up of layers of proteins. So when your hands are soaked in water for a long period of time, the water molecules actually get in between the layers and cause them to split apart. The best thing you can do is to wear gloves to avoid having your hands having prolonged contact in water. At least do this until you have followed all of the other tips and see a marked improvement in the condition of your nails.

Moisturize - If you aren't into wearing gloves, at least make sure that before and after you submerge your hands in water that you keep your hands, nails and cuticles well moisturized. Using cuticle oil is also a great idea toward improving the condition of your nails as they grow out.

Keep them Short - While you are working on the general condition of your nails, it is a good idea to keep them at a shorter length. Try cutting or filing them to where they just barely peek over the tips of your fingers and keep them at this length. A shorter length allows your healthy nail to grow out completely so that no part of the nail is brittle or damaged. Like having split ends in your hair, if the end of your nail is damaged, it can split down and cause damage to the healthy new growth of nail. Keep your nails cut short until you see that they are growing strong with no blemishes from the cuticle to the tip.

Filing (Not Sawing) - A common activity that can cause a great deal of damage to your nail is improper filing. Don't saw across your nail back and forth. Run the file across the tip of your nail in one direction only. Sawing your nail actually creates fraying along the tip which leads to damage that splits up the length of the nail. Also make sure that you use a file with a fine or medium grain. Files with a coarse grain can be damaging to your nails, and are mainly used for toes and calluses, not your delicate nails.

Bare Nails are Better - This may seem counter intuitive, but wearing nail polish can actually be bad for your nails. This is mainly due to the chemicals in nail polish and in nail polish remover. Most nail polishes contain Tourmaline and Formaldehyde, two ingredients that are harsh for your overall health, but also harsh on your nails. Nail polish remover sometimes contains acetone. This ingredient is also very drying and harmful to nails and can cause terrible brittleness.

Since part of the glamor of well groomed nails is the ability to wear beautiful nail colors, not wearing polish might not be the most appealing option. At least look for polish and polish remover that is more naturally based and that does not contain these harmful ingredients.

Healthy Nail Diet

Nails can provide insight into your overall health and whether or not you are getting the proper vitamins and nutrients in your diet. As in life in general, proper nutrition leads to healthy skin, hair, teeth and nails. A diet rich in calcium, protein, omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids, and vitamin A and biotin will lead to healthy fast growing nails and hair. Biotin promotes healthy cell growth, vitamin A helps the body to process protein. Liver and other red meats can be a great source of biotin and vitamin A, plus protein.

Also, as in life, make sure that you drink plenty of water every day to keep your body properly hydrated. It seems strange, but your body responds to lack of water much like a plant. If a plant does not get enough water, you'll quickly see the leaves dry out and shrivel up. Our hair, nails and skin respond in the same way.

Improve your diet and take proper care of your nails, and you should see drastic improvement in the condition and quality of your nails.

Ten Tips for Strong and Healthy Nails

By : AleexxpuNkreaNk grEzIkraYa, at : 0:22 - 07/06/2012

Strong nails are a sign of good health. Doing things to improve nail strength often improves our overall health as well. Plus, even one nail with a chip, a split or an outright hangnail can cause us hours of obsession as we pick and gnaw away at it. Strong nails can help us to look and feel good. If nail strength is your goal, these ten tips are your recipe.


1. Give your nails time to breath. Though leaving nails without care or polish for too long can cause them to break and otherwise spilt or be wavy, letting them have regular time without polish can help them look great.

2. Eat beans. Protein is a great way to get strong nails. Try a Bean Burrito at Taco Bell and watch your nails grow stronger – plus your hair will be shinier and it is good for your health in general.

3. Keep a clear coat of polish on your nails when you don’t feel like doing a full-on manicure. Look for something that is strengthening for nails like the many options available by Sally Hansen at Walgreens or SallyHansen.

4. Use a nail polish remover without acetone or formaldehyde as these are drying. Use acetate-based polishes instead. And if possible, don’t remove your polish more than twice a month.

5. File your nails in one direction. When filing your nails into your desired shape, try to primary file the top of the nail in one direction.

6. Don’t bite. Your nails, that is. Biting nails causes them to be nonexistent, unattractive and jagged. It typically does not have a long term effect on nails (http://naildesigniwik.blogspot.com/).

7. Wear rubber gloves when you are working a lot in soap and water or harsh chemicals. This is a good way to protect.

8. Keep your nails (and yourself) moisturized. Apply a hand moisturizer daily (Eucerin Plus Intensive Repair Hand Crème is a great lotion that dries quickly to make hands silky, available at Walgreens) and massage them into your fingernails as well.

9. Take vitamins to improve your nail strength. B Vitamin Biotin was found to strengthen horses hooves and, in later studies, people too. Zinc is also a good way to strengthen nails.

10. Tap your nails on your desk. You know the tapping that you do that can show people you’re impatient or bored? According to Lady’s Home Journal, it stimulates growth, making them stronger.

Make it Fun: Making your nails stronger is also a great way to express how you’re
feeling. Pick your color of choice, add studs or paint your initials or a message onto your nails. It is a way to pamper and express too.

To prevent the dreaded bubbles from forming in your polish, roll the bottle between your palms instead of shaking it. It works!

Apply a base and top coat and push back your cuticles in addition to your color polish when giving yourself a manicure.

Deep orange is a hot fall hue though deep purple is our recurring favorite.
