<\/a><\/p>\nMy Nail Strengthener \u2014Simply Pure\u2122 nail oil<\/h2>\n
When I created Simply Pure\u2122 hydrating oil<\/a>\u00a0in 2012, I didn’t track my progress. That was a big oops.<\/p>\n I just didn’t know that something miraculous would happen.<\/p>\n When I hosted my first “Let’s Get Naked” Challenge<\/a> on Facebook in January, 2013, my fans encouraged me to “go naked” with them.<\/p>\n I had been using a soak off gel overlay for about 9 months and I was getting a little tired of the time it took to reapply\u2014mostly because every time I removed my polish, it started to dissolve the gel.<\/p>\n Most people think I must have strong nails. This couldn’t be farther from the truth.<\/p>\n My nails are really thin!\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n Most of my life starting in college, I’ve used a hard gel overlay to give my nails the added strength they required to grow long.<\/p>\n After the birth of my 4th child, I was too tired to keep up with the gel maintenance.<\/p>\n I cut my nails short, let the hard gel grow out (because it’s very difficult to dissolve it with acetone), and stopped painting my nails. This was the biggest mistake I made<\/a> as a mother.<\/p>\n Caring for my nails was my sanctuary\u2014it gave me quiet time and it helped me feel prettier. And I gave it all up.<\/p>\n Since I wasn’t ready to go back to hard gel, when my fans asked me to “go naked”, I felt like it would be a great\u00a0opportunity\u00a0to go back to using Simply\u00a0Pure\u2122<\/a> hydrating oil\u00a0as my only nail strengthener and document the growth process.<\/p>\n Simply Pure\u2122 hydrating oil\u00a0AND<\/strong><\/em> weekly manicures allow my super thin nails to grow without breaking.<\/p>\n \u0003\u0003I rehydrate with Simply Pure\u2122 by doing an overnight hydration treatment<\/a>, then remove dirt and surface oil with rubbing alcohol before applying a new manicure using the Fab 5 Method.\u0003\u0003<\/p>\n \u0003\u00031.)<\/strong> Pure Nail Oil\u2122 gives my nails flexibility<\/strong> to bend when I whack them against something hard. \u0003\u0003<\/strong><\/p>\n 2.)
