Take Care of Your Hands and Nails
Do your nails have weird-looking cuticles or do hands feel as hard as a pumice rock? Maybe it's because you give your hands too much stress or that your nails are not properly cared for.
Steps
- Gather up all of the things you need and place them near the sink, just in case you spill something.
- Soak a cotton ball with nail polish remover. Remove all the leftover polish with this. If you don't have any nail polish on right now, please proceed on with the next step.
- Take the bowl of sudsy water and soak your fingers for 5 minutes.
- When you are done, take one of the washcloths (see Things You'll Need) and gently push back your cuticles.
- Get the nail cutters and shape your nails into a U-shape. Cut off any hangnails.
- Soak your nails in the lemon juice (Things You'll Need) for about 5 minutes. This cure will make your fingernails healthy.
- Apply the lotion onto your hands and then take the two washcloths and cover your hands with them for 7 minutes. They should feel soft and refreshed afterwards.
- Buff your nails or polish them.
Warnings
- Do not cut your cuticles because that can lead to an infection.
- Remember- the more jagged your cuticles are when you push them back, the more jagged they will be when they grow back.
- Make sure you do not have any aids as you dip them in lemon juice as this can lead to slower healing, an infection and pain.
