Wintertime is right around the corner, and if you’re anything like me, that means one thing: time to overhaul the beauty regimen.
Cold air and drying winds mean that it’s primetime for nice, rich moisturizers, and clever DIY lip-balms like this chocolatey concoction. It also means that it’s time to start taking serious care of your nails, because they are going to get brittle and jagged faster than you can say “sweater weather.”
Of course, one solution is to just trim them short for the winter season to curtail any breakage before it even happens. But if you like keeping your nails on the longer side so that you can enjoy adorable polish art like this cute rainbow manicure, you’re going to need to double-down on the nail care.
There are a couple of different reasons for this. One is self-explanatory: The more nail you have, the more maintenance required to keep it from breaking. The other reason? Nail polish and nail polish remover can both be tough on your nails, no matter how gentle you are with them.
So what’s a fashion-conscious girl to do? Well, the nail artist behind popular YouTube channel cutepolish has a few genius idea for keeping your nails long and strong, even when the winter winds are raging.
