My Nail Strengthener —Simply Pure™ nail oil

When I created Simply Pure™ hydrating oil in 2012, I didn’t track my progress. That was a big oops.

I just didn’t know that something miraculous would happen.

Let’s Get Naked!

When I hosted my first “Let’s Get Naked” Challenge on Facebook in January, 2013, my fans encouraged me to “go naked” with them.

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—mostly because every time I removed my polish, it started to dissolve the gel.

But Your Nails Are Strong

Most people think I must have strong nails. This couldn’t be farther from the truth.

My nails are really thin! 

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.

My Greatest Mistake

After the birth of my 4th child, I was too tired to keep up with the gel maintenance.

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 as a mother.

Caring for my nails was my sanctuary—it gave me quiet time and it helped me feel prettier. And I gave it all up.

The Challenge

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 opportunity to go back to using Simply Pure™ hydrating oil as my only nail strengthener and document the growth process.

It Takes Two to Tango

Simply Pure™ hydrating oil AND weekly manicures allow my super thin nails to grow without breaking.

I rehydrate with Simply Pure™ by doing an overnight hydration treatment, then remove dirt and surface oil with rubbing alcohol before applying a new manicure using the Fab 5 Method.

The Fab 5 Method

  •  2 base coat wraps
  •  2 color coats
  •  1 top coat wrap

1.) Pure Nail Oil™ gives my nails flexibility to bend when I whack them against something hard. 

2.) The Fab 5 layers actually strengthen and protect my nails with 8 layers of polish—5 on top and 3 below. For more info about the polish wrapping, click here.
