Get Stronger Nails Using Petroleum Jelly
We've all wanted stronger nails, right? Considering all the things they go through during the day. Petroleum jelly is cheap- and you can get it at pretty much every drugstore.
Steps
- Wash your hands. Not just rinse, actually WASH them. This is the first step to the road of stronger nails.
- Don't skimp on the petroleum jelly! Put a big ol' glob on all your nails!
- Rub, rub, rub! Use your index finger to rub all that petroleum jelly around. Pay special attention to these areas: Cuticles, and where you find those pesky hangnails!
- Leave on for 3-5 minutes. This leaves time to let the petroleum jelly soak in and gets its full strengthening power!
- Rinse. Make sure you get ALL of the petroleum jelly off.
- Enjoy!
Tips
- You could also press your cuticles back with a cotton swab.
- Do this right before bed, because that also gives it time to strengthen your nails.
- You only need to do this about once every 2-3 weeks.
Warnings
- Do not do this too often. It makes your nails sting. Only once every 2-3 weeks.
Things You'll Need
