White Iodine for nail strength

user-pic
Okay everybody I waited until I received my package of white iodine before telling you about it.  I ran across this information last week and decided to try it for myself.  All the comments I read by ladies that have tried white iodine for nail strength promise it works!  Supposedly it binds the protein in your finger nails and this causes them to become stronger and grow.  White iodine is a First Aid antiseptic just the same as the red one we all remember as a kid only it's clear not white.  After reading many post on regimen and testimonials of how the different ladies applied this product to their nails, I decided to hook-up mine the Cynthia Washington way!

Treatment for damaged or weak nails


I took an old bottle of cuticle nail oil I hadn't used in a while, emptied the oil washed the bottle & nail brush with soft soap and let dry.  Some ladies used a brush from an old bottle of nail polish cleaned it with nail polish remover and used that to apply the iodine.  First I added two almost full droppers of white iodine to the bottle (see photo gallery).  Then added 2 1/2 dropper of evoo, 1/2 dropper of Jamaican black castor oil and 5 drops of vitamin E oil.  Tonight will be my second application; the first night I used straight white iodine I couldn't wait yall, anyway about an hour after applying the iodine I warmed my evoo concoction and soaked my nails for 15 minutes.  Keep in mind the first week you should apply the iodine to your naked nails.  I'm so excited and can't wait to see the results!  So come on and join me, it would be great to hear what your results will be as well.

Here's how to use it, coat your nails with a thin layer of the white iodine every night for one week to naked nails.  Apply 3x a week for a month, then once a month thereafter.  It will be easy for me to slide this into my regular routine, and I will apply it over my nail polish for the 3x a week application at bed time.  I will apply to my naked nails monthly until I reach my goal of nails as hard as wood! 

Important note it is essential to use olive oil or castor oil either in a mixture like the one I made or just message one or both of these oils into your cuticles after each application as the iodine is very drying.
