Get Beautiful Nails at Home!

Don't have the time and/or money to hit the spa every week to get your nails done? Check out our tips to get beautiful healthy nails in the comfort of your own home!

1) Those pesky cuticles can really be a hassle. Try gently pushing them back with your fingers after every time you wash your hands. Your cuticles will be a bit softer when wet. If you do this regularly, you'll never have to worry about cuticles again!

3) Be sure to moisturize! Applying lotion daily (especially in the winter months) is crucial.

4) Eat a healthy diet. Simple things like drinking lots of water and making sure to get your daily recommended intake of calcium are very effective in nail health.
