Strong nails throughout the summer
Share
In the summer, nails endure extra stress. Sun, swimming, and sandy beaches can make nails thinner and more brittle. With the right care, they can remain strong during this period.
What stresses nails in summer
Moisture from water and sun can alternately dry out nails and cuticles. Walking barefoot more often and sand also cause extra wear. The result is often brittle edges or a thinner nail structure.
Helpful care
- Regularly use a nourishing nail oil or cream on your cuticles.
- Let your nails rest occasionally without polish.
- Choose a nourishing base coat under your polish.
- Trim nails straight to prevent breakage.
The OPI Nature Strong line combines color with nourishing ingredients and is well-suited for nails that need extra attention in the summer.
