Beautiful Nails with Iodine and Vita C
Most young girls and women want beautiful nails, and to that end most of us spend a small fortune on products that promise us the lovely talons that we crave. Quite a few of us realise that there is no nail strengthening miracle serum for our poor neglected looking hands, and to that end we spend a further fortune at nail salons, in the pursuit of well groomed appendages.
I had heard of using iodine over 20 years ago, however we didn’t have access to clear iodine or the internet, so I continued to spend on products that were having no effect, and yes visiting nail salons for a quick fix when in need of it.
I do use iodine now, and for the first time in my life, I can say that I have the nails that I have been striving for most of my adult life. Yes, you do have to wear gloves when doing the washing up, but then again once you see your nails growing strong, you make it a priority to use the latex!
Buy a bottle iodine, if you are fortunate enough to be able to get it from a local store or pharmacy that is great, if not buy a few bottles off the internet, non de colourised iodine is fine, as most people have soluble vitamin c in the bathroom cabinet, if not they are so cheap to buy.
Once you have bought your iodine, or received it from your preferred internet seller, just pop a few of the vitamin c tablets into the neck of the bottle and shake it up. It may take a day or two to clear. Once your iodine is clear, apply the iodine to the nails from the cuticle to the tip every day for a week, (I use an old eye shadow brush) then three times a week for two weeks. By the third week you will notice a difference in your nail strength and condition, and you should be able to go into maintenance mode using the iodine once or twice weekly.
So Ladies…………………well groomed hands for a small price, you too can finally stop hiding your hands and nails in embarrassment! Enjoy!
