We appreciate getting drenched in rain and showers, and the monsoon season brings a respite from the summer heat. Even though it provides relief from the oppressive summer heat, rain also spreads a lot of bacterial and viral diseases. The most important thing is to keep your nails clean and short as the monsoon season sees an increase in the population of dangerous microorganisms. We provide some nail hygiene advice.
- nail biting: Even if you don’t usually cut your nails, you should do so frequently during the monsoon season to prevent the build-up of bacteria. Keep your nails short as long nails become brittle and break easily due to moisture and humidity.
- Keep nails dry Always keep your finger and toe nails dry during the rainy season. Since moisture makes your hands and feet sweat more, you must wash and dry them frequently to get rid of any contaminants. Closed leather shoes should be avoided in favor of open or strappy shoes as they can lead to fungal infections. Before putting on socks and shoes, it is wise to use an anti-fungal powder to prevent any skin problems.
- Avoid painting your nails: Women enjoy applying different shades of nail polish, but it is advised to avoid doing so during the monsoon season and instead let your nails breathe. If parabens are essential, choose paraben-free nail paints and invest in a nail polish remover that also contains vitamins A, C and E, which are important for treating cuticle and nail issues.
- Soak Your Nails: In monsoon season, it is important to soak hands and feet in warm water with salt and a mild shampoo. It cleans the nails of all debris and germs while killing dangerous bacteria. Soaked nails also help to soften the skin. Don’t forget to dry them properly after soaking.
