In short, our nails are put to the test every day. To give them the care they deserve, there are several effective and natural solutions to adopt. So, to pamper your damaged, brittle, split nails, there’s nothing like a warm olive oil bath a few times a month. The same goes for hot salted water. You can also make your own homemade hand cream with a few natural ingredients. One potato, two cabbage leaves, three spoonfuls of porridge, and you’re done. Apply this to deeply moisturize your nails. For the lazy ones, there’s no need to bother with all these products. Just a few drops of Vaseline will make your nails strong and beautiful! And strong nails mean healthy cuticles, which is the promise of the new manicure trend called Nail Slugging.

On TikTok, when a beauty tip appears, it can be used almost endlessly to pamper our face, hair, and nails. This is notably the case of Slugging (see below). That’s all it took for all the nalistas to get back into it and try the experiment, launched on the Chinese platform. The result? Millions and millions of video tutorials illustrating the method and the products used. But what exactly is it? A beauty technique straight from Korea, slugging consists of coating the face, the hair and now the hands with Vaseline to make them more beautiful than ever. In short, we love it at Deavita.net. Because a classic French manicure is not complete if you forget to take care of your hands. In this case, try out nail slugging!

Adopting the nail slugging technique at home couldn’t be easier! All you need is two ultra-moisturizing and nourishing products like cuticle oil and Vaseline, available in the nail polish aisles. A thick, moisturizing cream will also do the trick. Start by massaging your cuticles using the oil, then follow up with a good coat of Vaseline. To seal in the benefits of the products used, put on gloves. The idea is to work around the nails to nourish them. As for the massage, it favours the absorption of the oil and the cream. Do this ritual before going to bed to say goodbye to dry skin, damaged cuticles and brittle nails the next day!
