Dr. Nature's remedies for brittle nails

Remedies for brittle nails can be made at home

Remedies for brittle nails do not have to come in pretty-looking bottles or cost a fortune to work wonders, they can be made at home

Olive and almonds
A teaspoon of olive oil mixed with a few drops of lemon juice will make a potent yet very easy DIY remedy that, if used at least twice a week, will help you transform your brittle, easy to chip nails into perfect ones. Massage it into your nails thoroughly, let it soak in, then slip soft manicure gloves on and let the mixture work its magic overnight.
Sea beauty
Mix together two teaspoons of fine sea salt with two drops each of lemon juice or oil, frankincense oil, myrrh oil and wheat germ oil. Pour this mixture into a bowl of warm water, then soak your hands and keep them soaked for about 10 to 15 minutes. Repeat twice a week.
Tea tree
A teaspoon of Tea Tree oil with a couple of drops of Vitamin E won’t only help you have stronger, healthier nails but will prevent nail fungus as well as successfully treating any existing infection. Rub it in as described above as often as you can and it won’t be long before you start seeing results.
