Hand and nail hacks that you need in your life

Your hands are one of the first things a person sees when they meet you, and the last thing you want is for them to see fingers and nails that leave little to be desired.

 

To ensure you are red carpet ready (you never know!), you should give the following seven hacks a go:

 

1. Slather them in moisturiser before wrapping a hot towel around them to heal cracks.

 

2. Whiten nails by scrubbing whitening toothpaste onto them before rinsing off.

 

3. Massage coconut oil into your nails and cuticles for a soft and supple look.

 

4. Rub cuticle oil around your nails before removing your polish to stop it staining your fingers.

 

5. Don’t rub your nail when trying to remove polish. Instead, soak a cotton pad and hold on the area before pulling it off.

 

6. Push your cuticles back after you’ve had a shower so that they are softer and less likely to become damaged.

 

7. Exfoliate and soothe your cuticles rather than cutting them.
