Nega nohtov. Nail Care

Vas zanima, kako skrbim za svoje nohte? Potem pa berite naprej.
Would you like to know how I take care of my nails? Then read on ... 

Ta "postopek" se je izkazal pri meni za najbolj uspešnega, ker so se mi nohti končno nehali cepiti, ampak mislim, da ima pri tem največ prstov vmes olje. Takole poskrbim za njih približno enkrat na teden in zaenkrat so srečni. 
This routine seems to be the most successful when it comes to my nails and I think that the oil has the most to do with it. I do this once a week and nails seem to be happy.


Najprej odstranim odvečen lak z Afroditim ali Dependovim odstranjevalcem laka. Zadnje čase večkrat z Dependovim, ker mi ustreza predvsem zato, ker nohtov ne izsuši, porabi pa se ga izredno malo. Zgleda nekako oljnat. 
Firstly I remove all the nail polish with Afrodita or Depend nail polish remover. Lately I use the Depend one - it's great because it doesn't dry out my nails and I don't use it much. It seems a bit oily.

In potem moji nohti zgledajo takole ... Na zelo dober dan. 
And then my nails look like that ... On a very good day. 

Za piljenje uporabljam najprej stekleno pilico, potem pa še blok pilico, da nohte zaprem in niso "razcefrani". 
Then I use glass file and after that block file to close my nails and stop splitting.

Potem je na vrsti piling ...
After that there's piling time ... 

Nato pa je na vrsti čudežni kompletek. No, pri Dependu so ga tako poimenovali, ampak jaz se kar strinjam z njimi.
And then there's the miracle kit. Well, Depend named it that way and when it comes to me, it deserves the name.

Piling, olje in kremo za obnohtno kožico se lahko kupi tudi posebej v stekleničkah, ki so tako velike kot njihovi laki za nohte, kar je super, ker vsakič res ne bi rada kupovala celega kompleta. Čeprav ga še nisem porabila v 3 mesecih (pa sem si od tega 1 cel mesec vsak dan mazala nohte z oljem). 
Piling, oil and cuticle cream can be bought separately in smaller bottles - just as big as their nail polish. That's great because I wouldn't want to buy the whole kit every time, even though I haven't used the products up in 3 months (and I used the oil every day for one whole month).

Začnem s "čistilcem, ki ga pustim na nohtih 5 minut ... 
I start with the cleanser and leave it on nails for 5 minutes ...

... potem pa ga nežno zdrgnem s krtačko - najprej brez vode, nato pa še pod tekočo vodo. 
... then I gently brush it off my nails - without water first and then under running water.

Potem pride na vrsto še tale palčka ... 
Then I use this stick ...

... kadar se mudi, pa korak s čistilcem preskočim in obnohtno kožico omehčam kar z Essence svinčnikom.
... but when I'm in a hurry I skip the cleanser step and soften the cuticles with Essence pencil.

Ko so nohti popiljeni in urejeni, pa uporabim Dependovo mira olje.Tole olje jaz krivim za to, da so moji nohti močnejši in se ne cepijo več. 1 mesec sem mazala nohte z njim res vsak večer in že po parih dneh se je opazilo razliko, ki še zdaj ni popustila. Pa nič ne škodi, da lepo diši - nekoliko po citrusih. 
When my nails are almost done, I use Depend myrrh oil. And I think that's the product that's guilty for my nails being stronger and not split. I used it every night for one month and there was a difference after a few days. As another plus - it smells nice, a bit like citrus fruits.

Nato uporabim še kremo za obnohtno kožico, ki prav tako lepo diši. Na koncu pa še kremo za roke.
Then I use cuticle cream that smells just as nice. And hand cream in the end.

In to je to. Čez nekaj časa jih namažem z lakom za nohte, včasih jim pa pustim malo dihati.
And that's it. I use nail polish after a while or just let them breathe a little.

Kako pa ve skrbite za svoje nohte? Imate tudi kakšne probleme z razcepljenimi konicami in kako to urejate? 
And how do you take care of your nails? Do you have any problems with split ends and how do you deal with it?
