Brighten and lighten nails with this natural whitening treatment.
Better than a pair of little white gloves. Olive oil is very effective in treating brittle nails.
Here's what you do:
Warm the olive oil in saucepan over low heat. Dip your nails in the oil for 5 to 10 minutes. After dipping, massage each nail individually. Massage your hands using the remaining oil. Gently push back the cuticles with an orangewood stick and shape the nails using an emery board. Blot any excess oil. Rub the nails with the lemon juice to whiten them.
You'll need:
* 1/4 cup olive oil
* 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
Personal Polish
A fun way to mix up your own nail color.
Color Chemistry is easy. With some white nail polish as a base and eye shadow in any color, you can make custom-colored nail polish to match all your favorite outfits. Unless, of course, you favorite is plaid.
Here's what you do:
[1] Crumble some or all of the eye shadow into the envelope. Crush it into a fine powder. [2] Snip a corner off the envelope to make a tiny funnel. Open the nail polish bottle and slowly add the eye shadow powder to the polish, stirring with the applicator brush until you reach the desired color. You may need to cap the bottle and shake, shake, shake to get everything blended together. [3] Paint those paws and let dry. Makes one bottle of polish.
You'll need:
* Eye shadow
* Paper envelope
* Bottle of white nail polish
