Hottest Winter Nails

If you don’t have extra time on your hands, or for your hands as it were, then you can approximate the health benefits of a salon treatment at home the old-fashioned way. Grab a jar of Vaseline Intensive Care - the jelly, not the lotion - and a pair of soft cotton gloves. Before you hit the sheets at night, slather on the jelly, sheath your jelly-covered hands with the cloth gloves, and snuggle into a cozy warm bed.
The heat from your body trapped both under the sheets and within the gloves plus the 8+ hours of sleep reveal soft, smooth hands the following morning and no time wasted at a salon.
Like we said, winter air can be very dry. Even indoors it can be difficult to escape the dry winter chill. Fight back with a humidifier that adds humidity to the air. This may not only help keep nails healthy, it can be a good way to avoid dry skin, too!

If venturing out into cold, dry weather for extended periods of time protect your hands by wearing gloves - preferably ones made of leather or cotton that help lock in moisture and are less prone to irritating sensitive skin than wool. Also make sure you wear rubber or latex gloves when washing dishes or scrubbing down the house to avoid drying out your hands and nails from abrasive soaps, chemicals and cleaners.
