Why this worksAs the weather cools, our nails can become dry and brittle. Incorporating nourishing treatments helps maintain moisture and keeps your nails looking vibrant. Seasonal colours and textures also enhance the festive spirit of October.

The ritual, step by step

  1. Start with a Soak Begin by soaking your nails in warm, soapy water for about 5-10 minutes. This softens the cuticles and prepares your nails for treatment.
  2. Exfoliate Your Cuticles Gently push back and exfoliate your cuticles using a soft cuticle remover or scrub. This step helps remove dead skin and encourages healthy nail growth.
  3. Moisturise with Oils Apply a nourishing cuticle oil to hydrate your cuticles and nails. Massage it in gently to increase blood flow and moisture retention.
  4. Choose Seasonal Colours Opt for warm, autumnal nail polish shades like deep reds, oranges, or browns. These colours not only reflect the season but also bring a warm glow to your nails.
  5. Seal with a Top Coat Finish off your manicure with a glossy top coat to protect your polish and add shine. This also helps to prolong the life of your nail treatment.

Where people go wrong

Many people skip the soak, thinking it's unnecessary, but it’s key for softening nails. Also, over-exfoliating can irritate the skin, so be gentle. Finally, don’t forget the top coat, as it’s essential for durability.

The pro moveConsider using a warm, scented cuticle oil for an added sensory experience while you pamper yourself.
