In winter, nails and hand skin are subjected to additional stress due to cold weather, dry indoor air and vitamin deficiencies. These factors can lead to nail brittleness, loss of nail shine and dry cuticles. To keep your nails healthy and beautiful during the cold season, we have prepared for you effective tips that will help you prevent damage and keep them in great shape. 

Regular moisturising

In winter, your nails and cuticles need intensive moisturising. Use oils and creams that contain vitamins A, E and nourishing ingredients such as shea butter or almond oil.

Tip: Apply cuticle oil before bedtime and wear cotton gloves for better absorption.

Cold air dries your skin and nails a lot, making them brittle. Always wear gloves before going outdoors, especially if the temperature is below freezing.

Tip: Avoid synthetic gloves as they create a greenhouse effect. It is better to choose woollen or cotton gloves.

Nourishing baths are an easy way to strengthen your nails. Use warm oil (olive or coconut oil) with a few drops of lemon juice added. This strengthens your nails and improves their colour.

Recipe: Mix 2 tablespoons of oil and 5 drops of lemon juice. Soak your nails in the warm mixture for 10-15 minutes, then blot with a paper towel.

Choose soft nailfiles for your nails

Nails become more brittle in winter, so it's important to use glass or ceramic nail files. These minimise the risk of splitting and damage.

Tip: File your nails in one direction, avoiding chaotic movements.

Strengthening your nails starts from the inside out. Add foods rich in biotin (eggs, nuts, bananas), calcium (dairy products) and omega-3 fatty acids (fish, avocados) to your diet.

Global Fashion's gentle nourishing nail and cuticle oil is the perfect solution for brittle, damaged nails and dry skin. After just a few applications, it effectively softens cuticles and revitalises the nail plate, restoring its health and shine. The formula of the oil is saturated with vitamins, natural oils and unique mastic resin, which makes it an indispensable assistant in hand care.

Cuticle oil provides intensive moisturisation and nourishment to the skin around the nails thanks to a balanced complex of vitamins and minerals. It effectively eliminates inflammation, irritation and flaking, leaving the skin soft and smooth. It also improves cuticle elasticity, helping to maintain its well-groomed appearance. The light and pleasant fragrance makes nail care a real pleasure. The handy brush allows you to apply the oil evenly, thoroughly treating each area around the nails.

Massage candle for nails and cuticles Global Fashion, 30 ml

This clever candle has a pleasant fragrance and a soft texture that turns into a massage oil when heated. It is ideal for dry skin with flaking, tightness and wrinkles.

1. Avoid hot water. Frequent hand washing in hot water dries the skin and cuticles. Use warm water and moisturiser immediately after the treatment.

2. Drink more water. Humidity drops in winter, which leads to dehydration of the body. This affects the condition of your nails.

3. Use humidifiers. They help maintain healthy indoor humidity, preventing your skin and nails from drying out.

Winter nail care is not only about protecting your nails from the cold, but also a comprehensive approach that includes moisturising, nourishing and choosing the right products. By following these simple recommendations, you can enjoy strong and beautiful nails even in the coldest season!
