Superguide to recover your nails –

Do you pay attention to your nails? But really pay attention, in addition to checking if the enamel is up to date. Paint nails regularly (even if at home) camouflages and makes it easier to ignore the injuries you may have earned from opening boxes, doing workouts, taking care of the house… But it’s crucial to pay attention to changes in the shape, texture or color your nails, as they often show what’s going on inside your body — and some changes can be indicative of more serious health issues.

Here are the solutions to some common problems that damage your nails:

YOU HIT DURING TRAINING

It sounds silly, but if you’ve scraped your nails during a tough workout (such as crossfit), you may have acquired certain marks of discoloration that won’t go away. Known as leukonychiathis condition means that you have caused trauma to the nail matrix.

If you’re sure you didn’t do anything to get them, in rare cases they can also be indicative of kidney disease. See a doctor if you have other symptoms.

Look for a serum or cream that increases the hydration of your cuticles and nail base. Over time, your nails will grow stronger. We indicate the Granado Cuticle Cream.

YOU HAVE A NUTRIENT DEFICIENCY

If your nails are thin and curve inward like a spoon, you may be iron deficient. Call of koilonychia, this condition can also be caused by aging, blood loss (such as during menstruation), pregnancy, and a poor diet. For starters, pay attention to your iron intake. In addition to meat,eguminous as beans, lentils, peas and chickpeas are rich in iron and they also help to strengthen the organism in the fight against diseases”, says the doctor and vice president of the Colégio Brasileiro de Medicina do Estilo de Vida, Livia Salome.

In addition to increasing your iron intake and decreasing your intake of processed foods, talk to your doctor about supplementation to see if this applies to you. Another great nutrient is biotin, which strengthens nails and even helps with growth. try the NewLabVita supplement.

O CLIMATE IS COLD

As the cold weather increases, you may notice your nails suffering, as the combination of low humidity and increased water temperatures (who doesn’t usually leave the bath warmer in the cold?) causes the natural hydration of the nails to go to the environment . With this, you may notice lines near the cuticles and flaking on the nails.

Exfoliate and moisturize your nails like you do your skin. O TsMADDT’s kit brings a complete line of gentle exfoliants to not damage your nails. Don’t forget to moisturize right after the process and don’t exceed the mark of 2 times a week, to give the nails time to recover between exfoliations.

YOU DON’T LEAVE GEL NAILS ALONE

They are great because they don’t need to be touched up as often as regular nail polishes and last for at least 2 weeks, but doing it too often can damage your nails as soaking them in the remover solution dehydrates the nail and the gel formulation can even thin the natural keratin layer. This, in the long run, makes your nails break much more easily.

how to fix

Leave a spacing of 2 to 4 weeks between one gel enamelling and another. “A quarantine is an excellent time to do this ‘detox’. Undoubtedly, the continuous use of nail polish leaves the nails weak and increases the likelihood of developing some mycosis. When we have nail polish continuously we cannot hydrate the nail plate, this makes the nails more fragile and brittle. Fungi, which cause mycoses, are opportunistic and proliferate in humid and stuffy environments. With the continuous use of enamel we, in a way, muffle the nails and we are more vulnerable to this disease”, explains the dermatologist Fabiana Seidlfrom Rio de Janeiro.

In the interval when your nails are not wearing nail polish, reinforce the keratin layer with a specific product for this, such as Keratin Strengthener 4Free, by Blant.
