Just like the rest of our faces and bodies your Hands , Feet & Nails need
looking after. Your cuticles (the bit of skin around the top of your nails) can
become dry, split and over grown. Nails can be dry, brittle and dehydrated. Skin
can become chapped, dry, dehydrated, sun-damaged, pigmented and aged.
It is
therefore important to moisturise and protect your hands and nails with creams
and SPF's.
Feet will need extra attention and products to deal with hard
calloused, rough, thick skin that accumulates on the heels. Left untreated
(especiallly in winter as they are usually hidden away in socks and boots) this
skin builds up becoming unsightly, cracked and sometimes painful.
Manicures and pedicures are generally recommended at 4-6 week intervals to keep
your skin and nails in good order.
Gel polish lasts longer than ordinary
lacquer, usually up to 14days, but it does need to be removed professionally.
Never pick or peel gel polish off as this will cause damage to your natural
nail.
