Castor oil for nails

There are real legends about the properties of castor oil, and the range of its action is not limited to caring for naughty curls, overdried epidermis or nails; a herbal remedy is often used in medicine to normalize the functioning of the gastrointestinal tract. However, let's return to the field of beauty and talk about the effect "castor oil" has on the nail plate and the thin skin around it - the cuticle.

It is the method of obtaining the composition that allows you to save a useful complex of trace elements and fatty acids in the structure of the oil.

The cold-pressed plant product is of high quality and recognizable consumer qualities: high density and viscosity of the substance.

There is nothing more beautiful than well-groomed female hands, and it is especially pleasant to watch natural nails with soft cuticles without additional coverage, you must admit that such a phenomenon is quite rare. Modern women's duties expose the surface of the nail plate to real stress, plus sometimes malnutrition adds an unhealthy shine to our nails, and the lack of free time makes us forget about the problem of unhealthy nails.

Castor oil comes to the rescue - an affordable and budgetary analogue to expensive procedures and a full-fledged care kit for nails and hands for both women and men.

Thick aromatic castor oil of natural origin is a product for the health of nails and thin skin - cuticles, which allows you to reach incredible heights in daily home care:

• Castor oil helps to grow healthy and long plates faster due to the presence of useful fatty acids in the complex.
• Castor oil softens the cuticle - the skin around the nail, saturating it and nourishing it with a complex of lipid acids, which makes it easy to move it away from the nail and give the hands a well-groomed, finished look.
• In addition to stimulating the growth of the stratum corneum, castor oil has a firming effect and makes the structure of keratinized skin even denser, stronger and gives a pleasant surface shine.
• Brittle nails after regular use of castor extract become dense and strong, they cease to break treacherously and spoil the appearance of nails.
• "Castor oil" has an antiseptic property and is appropriate for use on the surface of toenails. In addition to disinfecting functions, it helps to fight the already formed fungus as an additional factor.

The use of castor oil is not limited to hair (curls on the head, eyebrows and eyelashes), it perfectly copes with dry skin on the hands and restores the structure of the nail, moisturizes the cuticle and stimulates the growth of the nail plate.

It is advisable to use a herbal product according to some simple recommendations that will help to slightly simplify the process of applying the oil and achieve greater effect from its regular use.

Apply preheated oil to the cleansed surface of the skin of the hands and nails with massage movements. Pay special attention to the cuticle and nail area - rub the oil for a minute for additional stimulation of the skin and nail. Heated oil has better penetrating properties and has a beneficial effect on the epidermis.

Leave the oil to soak into the skin of the hands and the keratinized structure of the nails for a period of 10-15 minutes; the remains of the product can be blotted with a dry cloth or towel in order to complete the daily procedure completely.

For best results, leave the oil on your hands overnight. - put on cotton mittens on oiled hands and nails, leave the indelible mask until the morning.

See below for details.

To neutralize the negative effects of nail polish remover or the procedure for removing gel polish from the surface of the nail, apply castor oil to the cleaned plates after removing one or another coating and leave it overnight. This will allow you to strengthen and restore them even for such a short period.

The use of castor oil is possible as part of a weekly or more frequent care mask: heat the herbal composition to a pleasantly warm temperature and add a couple of drops of iodine. Dip your fingers in the resulting mixture and leave them for a period of 5 minutes. Then dry the plate and fingers with a dry towel or tissue.

Taking care of the feet and the horny plate on them is considered more difficult, but for castor oil this is not a problem either. The structure of the plate on the legs repeats the one on the hands, so caring for it consists of the same rules.

For application, use a cotton swab dipped in the composition, and it is not necessary to be limited only to nail care: apply castor agent warmed up in a water bath or in the palms of your hands over the entire foot, paying attention to dry surfaces (for example, the heel). A small massage will allow you to relax and enhance the nutritional properties of the herbal product.

In addition to the mask for home spa care mentioned above, there are several more time-tested and women's recipes.

The simplest homemade mask for growing and strengthening nails is based on water: take half a liter of liquid and add a couple of teaspoons of castor extract there, mix the mixture thoroughly and dip your hands into it.

To achieve an additional effect, it is useful to add a drop of iodine, a teaspoon of iodized sea salt, essential oil.

Home SPA will be an excellent solution for dry skin in the hands; in addition, such a procedure is budgetary in its cost and pleasant for a lady who decided to treat herself a little.

Castor oil is said to be a panacea for many problems associated with hair, skin and even the horny plate. Recall that it is a keratinized layer of skin cells, which are based on keratin, or protein.

Consumers talk about the main advantage of the castor product - its availability. It is easy to buy high-quality oil in a pharmacy, and its cost is ridiculous compared to the range of its actions.

You can use a herbal remedy to care for the surface of the plate at least every day; it is especially convenient to do this at night and wrap your hands in cotton gloves for amazing and long-lasting results.

Cuticle care is also important, because it primarily speaks of the grooming of women's hands. Women with castor oil on their nails claim that the cuticle becomes more pliable and easier to remove - just move it away from the plate, you don’t even have to cut it.
