Beautiful nails don’t just happen. At times, you need to give them a hand to keep them thriving. |
With all the abuse we put our nails through during normal activities, not to mention manicure products, it is no wonder that they can dry and become brittle. If you’re looking to keep your nails healthy, then it is important to keep them regularly conditioned. The recipe of this homemade nail conditioner that I want to share with you came to me from an excited friend that said I had to try this because it was the best thing she ever did for her nails. Let me tell you that once I mixed up a batch and starting using, I also thought it was awesome for helping suffering nails.
With a combination of four nourishing oils of argan, grape seed, almond and olive, the nails receive deep conditioning to solve the brittleness problem. The geranium essential oil also helps lubricate for keeping that intensive moisturizing treatment going even longer. It also has antibacterial and healing properties like honey that is also added to this recipe for healthier nails and cuticles while the lemon juice helps brighten the nail bed.
I do hope that you give this homemade nail conditioner a shot because you really will be surprised at the way your nails will respond. You also might want to try my DIY Moisturizing Nail Oil recipe, which is another winner in my opinion.
