Ingredients Needed
- Olive oil
- Castor oil
- Sweet almond oil
- Bitter almond oil
- Vitamin E capsule
- Essential oil – Optional
Choose high-quality ingredients to boost the effectiveness and safety of your DIY beauty products. Also, where an essential oil is included in my recipes, I utilize either of two types of essential oils: pure if added in drops, or diluted if mixed in grams—For diluted essential oil, mix 1 gram (0.035 oz) of pure essential oil with 100 grams (3.5 oz) of sweet almond oil or jojoba oil.
Tools Needed
- Stainless steel cup
- Tablespoon
- Teaspoon
- Wooden popsicle
- Small funnel
- Small, glass nail oil bottle with brush lid to store the DIY Natural Nail Growth Oil
Prior to use, ensure that both your utensils and containers are properly cleaned and disinfected. Wash them with warm soapy water, dry with a tissue, and then sanitize by spraying with 70% medical alcohol. Wipe them clean and let them air dry before use.
Steps: DIY Natural Nail Growth Oil
1- Start by adding 1 tablespoon (15 milliliters or 0.5 US fluid ounces) of olive oil into the cup.
2- Add 1 teaspoon (5 milliliters or 0.17 US fl oz) of castor oil.
3- Add 1 teaspoon (5 milliliters or 0.17 US fl oz) of sweet almond oil.
4- Add 1 teaspoon (5 milliliters or 0.17 US fl oz) of bitter almond oil. Exercise caution with the bitter almond oil; excess amounts may not be suitable for the skin. It’s recommended to adhere to the specified measurements to maintain the balance and safety of the DIY Natural Nail Growth Oil.
5- Cut the vitamin E capsule, and squeeze its contents into the cup.
6- With a popsicle, stir the contents for 2 minutes, to achieve a homogeneous mixture.
7- As an optional step, and to give the DIY Natural Nail Growth Oil a nice scent, you can add 5 drops of an essential oil. Here, I am adding patchouli.
8- Mix again.
9- Using a small funnel, pour the oil mix into the glass bottle.
10- Seal the bottle with its brush lid, then shake it against your palm for a minute or 2.
11- The DIY Natural Nail Growth Oil is now done!
How To Use: DIY Natural Nail Growth Oil
To maximize the benefits of DIY Natural Nail Growth Oil, follow this step-by-step method that combines soaking and daily oil application:
Part 1: Weekly Nail Soaking
- Prepare a nail-soaking solution by mixing freshly squeezed lemon juice with crushed garlic in a small bowl. Ensure the mixture is well combined.
- Submerge your nails in the lemon juice and garlic solution, ensuring they are fully immersed. Allow them to soak for 15 minutes. This weekly soaking helps cleanse and nourish the nails.
- After the soaking period, remove your nails from the mixture and pat them dry with a clean towel. Do not wash them. Let them rest for 15 minutes, allowing them to absorb the benefits of the lemon juice and garlic. Repeat this soaking step once a week.
Part 2: Daily Oil Application
- On a daily basis, apply DIY Natural Nail Growth Oil to your nails and cuticles. Take a small amount of the oil and gently massage it into each nail and the surrounding cuticles.
- Use circular motions during the massage to stimulate blood circulation and promote nutrient absorption. The DIY Natural Nail Growth Oil nourishes and strengthens the nails.
- Leave the oil on your nails for as long as possible, ideally for at least 30 minutes. For more intensive treatment, you can leave it on overnight.
- For optimal results, apply the DIY Natural Nail Growth Oil daily or more frequently, depending on your preference and the needs of your nails. Consistency is key to achieving noticeable improvements in nail strength and growth.
By following this method, which includes weekly nail soaking and daily oil application, you provide your nails with a rejuvenating treatment. The weekly soaking with lemon juice and garlic helps cleanse and prepare the nails, while the daily application of DIY Natural Nail Growth Oil nourishes and promotes healthier nail growth. Enjoy the journey towards stronger, more beautiful nails with this effective DIY approach!
