Nail Stregthener

I've been battling dry brittle nails all fall and winter.  They break, tear, peel & split!  The cuticles are all dry and hang nails everywhere....ugh.  Pretty image, huh?  Oh come on, I know I'm not the only one going through this! I've had it, so I've been researching nail strengtheners.

There are acrylic nails, acrylic tips, nail hardeners, gel applications and many more.  After much research, I still couldn't figure out what I needed to do.  So I paid a visit to the local salon supply store.  I won't say which one, since the girl that worked their gave me some advice that could get her in trouble. 

You see, she looked at my nails and said to apply Lamisil cream.  That's right...the anti fungal cream for athletes foot.  Can you believe it!  She said her small son had athletes foot and she applied this to his feet every night and noticed her nails and cuticles starting to improve.  She asked her Doctor and he said that the cream has a "steroid" in that was helping her nail beds to improve.

Hey, it's worth a try right?  I picked some up and I'm going to give it a try!  Now I've looked all over that tube to see what "steroid" it may have in the ingredients and to be honest, I can't read that little bitty writing!  Oh well, I'll let you know how it goes!
