Here's How:
1. Avoid picking at the cuticles. This can be as addictive as nail biting and can contribute to hangnails.
2. Use cuticle oil or cream to keep the skin supple around the nails. Dry cuticles contribute to hangnails.
3. The minute you see a hangnail, snip it off with a pair of nail scissors. (carefully)
4. Nighttime is the perfect time to baby those cuticles. Even a little lip balm massaged into the area will work wonders as you sleep.
5. Petroleum jelly is another good moisturizer for your cuticles. The fats in the jelly penetrate the layers of skin while the jelly forms a film preventing air from drying out the skin.
6. Vitamin E oil is another great method of healing hangnails quickly.
7. If you can stand it after applying your moisturizer before going to bed wear cotton gloves to help seal in the moisture.
So take care of your cuticles and keep them well moisturized to prevent those nasty little hangnails!
Until next time please have a great nail polish day. (✿◠‿◠)
