It may seem like a discreet and innocuous tool, but nail clippers actually have some surprising little uses. In addition to maintaining your nails, they’re so practical and versatile that they’ll come in handy in unexpected ways. It’s time to explore their hidden facets and take advantage of them every day.
A must-have for healthy nails
We agree, nail clippers are a care accessory that has been specially designed to provide a precise and clean cut to fingernails and toenails. But, we must admit, we often use them inappropriately, without choosing the right time. However, know this: proper use can make all the difference. Ideally, you should cut your nails after taking a bath or shower. Why? Since they are a little softer under the effect of water, cutting is easier and the risk of breakage is reduced. Conversely, when they are dry, the cut can be uneven and cracks can appear.
Care ritual: For those who prefer natural options, there’s a simple trick to moisturize your nails and make them stronger. Simply apply a drop of almond or coconut oil to each nail just before clipping them. Gently spread it over all your nails, including the cuticles. You’ll see, with this little routine, your nails will become more supple and strong.
