Working in the garden and a beautiful manicure sometimes seem incompatible concepts, because as a result of constant contact of hands with the ground, the coating inevitably chips off, and nails break.
It would seem that the solution is obvious, and it consists of using gloves, but not everyone is comfortable doing work with something like mittens on their hands.
Instead of this uncomfortable option, take a look at other, equally effective ways to keep your manicure safe and sound.
Soap under nails
Before you begin, scratch a bar of soap so that it fills the space under your nails. This will protect your nails from dirt, and even if dirt gets under the nail plate, it will be easy to remove. You can also use this method for toenails if you wear open shoes.
Liquid gloves
To make homemade liquid gloves, apply liquid soap to your hands and let it dry. This will create a protective layer that will help preserve your manicure and prevent damage to your nails. However, if you happen to come into contact with water, you will need to repeat the procedure.
Lemon remedy
Sometimes, no matter how well we protect our hands, the cuticles and skin become dark due to dirt, which cannot be corrected with regular soap.
In this case, try using lemon juice, applying it to the “affected” areas – lemon has long been famous for its whitening properties.
