How to Strengthen Nails After Removing Gel or Acrylics
Removing gel or acrylic nails often leaves natural nails weak, brittle, and prone to breakage. To repair damage, focus on hydrating with oils like argan and jojoba oil, and use nail-strengthening treatments like ISDIN Si-Nails to restore thickness and durability. Regular application of nail hardeners can help prevent future damage.
Best Home Remedies for Nail Growth
Natural oils like argan, coconut, and castor oil are highly effective for promoting nail growth. Argan oil hydrates and nourishes, while coconut oil strengthens and protects the nail bed. Apply these oils directly to nails daily to see visible improvements in growth and strength over time.
Why Are My Nails Peeling and How Can I Fix It?
Peeling nails often result from dryness or overuse of harsh nail products. To fix this, incorporate nail strengtheners like ISDIN Si-Nails and supplements to strengthen nails like Viviscal and HairMax. Focus on moisturizing nails and cuticles with natural oils like jojoba or almond oil. Reducing exposure to water and using gloves while cleaning can also help prevent further peeling.
How to Keep Cuticles Healthy and Hydrated
Dry, cracked cuticles can weaken nails and lead to discomfort. To keep them healthy, use a nourishing oil like argan or olive oil to hydrate daily. For extra care, try cuticle creams rich in vitamin E. Avoid cutting cuticles too aggressively, as it can cause damage and infections.

stronger, healthier nails. Although VIviscal is a hair supplement, it ca help strengthen

Why are my nails brittle and weak?

contribute to weak nails. Using treatments like ISDIN Si-Nails and
strengthening supplements can help restore nail health.

focus on internal support through supplements like HairMax. Ensure your nails
stay hydrated and avoid over-filing or excessive use of nail polish.
What causes peeling and ridges in nails?

overuse of nail products. They can also be signs of internal diseases like
psoriasis so it is good to get them evaluated by a dermatologist. Allergic
reaction to toluene and formaldehyde in nail polish can also do this. Consider

hyaluronic acid to improve nail texture and smooth ridges.

essential nutrients for nail growth.

overall health of your nails, preventing further splitting and cracking.
However, existing cracks may need time to grow out while using the product
consistently.What should I add to my diet to strengthen nails?
To strengthen your nails, include foods rich in biotin (eggs, almonds), zinc
(nuts, seeds), omega-3 fatty acids (salmon, flaxseeds), and iron (leafy greens,
lentils). These nutrients help improve nail strength, prevent brittleness, and
support healthy growth.Which natural oils can help dry nails?
Argan oil is excellent for dry nails due to its rich vitamin E content, which
nourishes and hydrates. Jojoba oil mimics the skin’s natural oils, helping with
absorption and moisture retention. Coconut oil is also effective, sealing in
hydration and protecting nails from splitting and dryness.
