Barb, it's a word that hurts!
Tear, drill distress, don't tear, tickle!
Every year during the barbed season, my friends around me start arranging vitamin ABCDE....A frenzy of supplements, bottles and cans are not less bought, and the barbs are not good.
The reason is that the direction is wrong......
The number one enemy of barbs is dryness!Dry!Dry!
This small patch around the nail**, unlike all parts of the body**, lacks sweat glands and sebaceous glands and is prone to dehydration;The stratum corneum around the nail is generally only moisturized by "rubbing" a small amount of oil secreted by ** next to it.
Under this premise, if you wash your hands too frequently and repeatedly rub physically, it will destroy the already poor oil layer on the surface of the periungual**, so that the stratum corneum will dry and peel off due to water evaporation, forming the so-called "barbs".
To put it simply, long barbs are not due to a lack of vitamins, but to dryness caused by a lack of oil around the nails**
01.Seasonal influences.
After autumn and winter, the relative humidity of the air will decrease, which indirectly causes dryness.
At this time, the protective effect of the stratum corneum will decrease, become rough, and if it is more severe, it will be prone to barbs.
02.Excessive friction.
Frequent moving, housework or manual labor, etc., the hands are constantly rubbed, and barbs are more likely to occur.
03.Frequent use of cleaning products.
Frequent use of alkaline products such as soap, hand sanitizer, and dish soap will not only remove the oil on the surface, but also cause the stratum corneum to lose its protection, and the original moisture of the stratum corneum will evaporate excessively, resulting in barbs.
Step 1: Prune.
If the barb has been formed, it is not recommended to treat it violently, whether it is pulling, pulling or biting, it is easy to damage the normal ** of the root and surrounding of the barb, and pain and bleeding will also expand the scope of the injury and increase the risk of infection.
Therefore, it is more reasonable to use nail clippers or a special barb trimmer to cut off the warped part.
Step 2: Moisturize.
Don't forget to take care of your hands after trimming the barbs or washing your hands.
Moisturizers, moisturizers or hand creams are important for people who are prone to dryness and barbs. They help maintain normal barrier function, reduce water loss, and alleviate dryness.
After washing your hands, before going to bed, or when you feel dry, you can reapply, and you don't need to strictly limit the number of uses.
If the barbing problem is more severe, or if you find the hand cream uncomfortable, you can use finger edge oil alone to give more detailed care around the nails.
If you have a better solution to the barbs, please leave a message in the comments!
