Pretty Your Nails Save Your Skin

You may need to be more aggressive with sunscreen and antioxidant use on your hands than you have been in the past. For women who regularly go to tanning salons and dry their nails with UV light, the look of the polish is flawless, but it's intense UV light exposure and could up the risk of skin cancer on your hands. Solutions: yes, now and then air dry if you have the time, or simple fan use for polish setting that that doesn't involve light activation, and most importantly start thinking of how to reverse sun damage on the hands. This could be done with anti-oxidant use or laser IPL treatments. Most potent anti-oxidants to consider: Vit C, coffee-berry, green tea.
