Nail Strength: Best Nail Strengthener & Expert Tips
Are you dreaming of long, resilient nails that defy breakage and splitting? Achieving #nailgoals might seem like a distant fantasy, but fear not! We’ve consulted with our seasoned nail technicians to compile a comprehensive guide on how to strengthen your nails effectively. From the best nail strengtheners and nail hardeners to file grit, nail repair treatments and more. Say goodbye to weak, brittle nails and hello to a stronger, healthier manicure.
1. Invest in a Soft Nail File:
Opting for a softer nail file, like the OPI Flex File 220/280, helps prevent tears and snags on your nails, resulting in a smoother finish that is less likely to break down the line.
2. Consider Collagen Supplementation:
Strong and healthy nails start from the inside out. Trying out a collagen supplement, like Glow Pure Collagen Powder, can help improve overall nail strength, flexibility and longevity. Collagen contains various amino acids which are essential for nail growth. The amino acids add nutrients and oxygen to tissues in the nail beds and nail roots.
3. Meet Your Nail Hero – OPI Nail Envy:
OPI’s nail strengthener, Nail Envy is arguably considered the best nail strengthener polish in the game. And now with their new 9-free, vegan, nail hardener formula, Nail Envy strengthens and protects nails with Tri-Flex Technology™ in just 1 week, when used as directed. Nail Envy also comes in a variety of colours, so you won’t need to sacrifice a normal colour manicure while nursing your nails back to health.
This coupled with the OPI nail repair products, like the innovative nail serum OPI Repair Mode, are a great treatment for damaged nails wanting to get some strength and flexibility back.
4. Nail Shape Matters:
What nail shape works for you really depends on your natural cuticle and finger shape. Ensuring your nails follow your cuticle shape as they grow out, will help for easy strength and growth. Find out what nail shape is best for you here.
5. Prioritize Moisturization:
Dry hands and skin can lead to dry, brittle and inflexible nails. When our hands and nails are lusciously moisturized, our nails are healthier and bend without breaking, resulting in longer, stronger nails and a better looking manicure!
For the ultimate hand hydration pamper session, start with the OPI Pro Spa Exfoliating Scrub to get rid of dead skin, followed by our fav hydration essentials, the OPI Pro Spa Softening Gloves and OPI Pro Spa Hand, Nail and Cuticle Cream.
6. Healthy Cuticles, Healthy Nails:
Cuticle care, cuticle care, cuticle care! We can’t say this enough. Put down the scary tools and stop picking, trimming, or manipulating your cuticles in any way.
Use a daily cuticle oil, like OPI Pro Spa Cuticle Oil and a moisturizer, like the OPI Pro Spa Hand, Nail and Cuticle Cream, to keep your nails healthy. Remember, dry nails equals brittle, breakable nails.
By following these expert tips and incorporating quality products like, OPI Nail Envy nail strengthener as a fingernail strengthener or toenail strengthener, you’ll be well on your way to achieving enviable nail strength. Say hello to resilient, beautiful nails that stand the test of time.
