Summer Nail Care in Malta: 5 Tips for Healthy Nails
Summer in Malta is for relaxing, not worrying about your nails. Sun, sea water, swimming pools and frequent travel can affect both your hands and your manicure. Follow these simple nail-care tips to keep your nails looking healthy and beautiful throughout the season.
Why Do Your Nails Need Extra Care During Summer?
Malta’s heat, strong sunshine, sea water and swimming pools can leave the nails, hands and cuticles feeling dry.
Regular hydration and a few simple precautions can help protect your manicure and maintain the appearance of your natural nails while you enjoy your holiday.
1. Hydrate Your Hands and Cuticles Every Day
Sun exposure, air conditioning, chlorine and salt water can make your hands and cuticles feel dry.
Apply hand cream or cuticle oil every day, especially after washing your hands or spending time at the beach or pool.
- Apply hand cream daily
- Massage cuticle oil around each nail
- Reapply after swimming or washing your hands
Protect Your Nails During Your Holiday
2. Don’t Use Your Nails as Tools
Opening cans, lifting labels or scratching hard surfaces with your nails can cause chips, cracks and breakage. Use the appropriate tool instead of putting pressure on your manicure.
3. Take Care Around Pools and the Sea
Rinse your hands with fresh water after swimming. Dry your nails properly and avoid leaving them wet for long periods, especially if they are already weak or damaged.
JUICIOSAS BEAUTY TIP
Give your nails a little care after every beach or pool day.
Rinse, dry and moisturise your hands and cuticles to help keep your manicure looking fresh for longer.
4. Protect Your Hands From the Sun
Your hands are regularly exposed to the sun but are often forgotten when applying sun protection.
Apply sunscreen to the backs of your hands and reapply it after swimming or washing. Continue using hand cream and cuticle oil to maintain hydration.
5. Always Carry a Mini Nail Kit
A small nail-care kit can help you manage minor chips or dryness while you are away from home.
- Nail file
- Hand cream
- Cuticle oil
