If the skin around your nails has become dry and often cracks after cold weather, this is not a reason to change your nail file every three days. Most often, the reason is a broken lipid barrier and slow blood flow in small capillaries. Many people immediately grab nippers or aggressive removers, but this only injures the matrix and thins the nail plate from the inside. It will soon get warmer, and you will want to wear open sandals and light jewelry. Now is the time to start home care, and within 7-10 days the skin around your nails will become smooth and even.
What to do:
- After a warm shower, when the skin is still steamed and slightly damp, apply a drop of oil to your fingertips.
- Massage the base of each nail in a circular motion for 1.5–2 minutes, applying gentle pressure with the pads, moving from the little finger to the big toe.
- For precise distribution, use an orange stick or glass pusher.
- The tool carefully distributes the composition over the side rollers without scratching or damaging delicate skin.
- Pay attention to the areas near the nail bed and the free edge, where hangnails appear most often and take the longest to heal.
This method restores natural protection, initiates tissue nutrition and helps the oil penetrate deep into the plate rather than remain on the surface.
After only 3-4 days, the cracks heal, and after 7-10 days the nails gain density, stop flaking and look well-groomed without additional coating.
