Have your ever given up on applying nail polish just because you thought your nails were not long enough to be pretty? Well, we’ll show you that your are wrong and that there are some ways listed below, to make the nails growing faster.

Your nails typically grow of an inch per month, however, it could be less or more depending on hormones, seasons (more fragile during the Winter). However, the growth can be modified depending mostly on your lifestyle.

• Eat healthy and drink a lot of water each day: proritize protein-rich food as well as bean, fish, nuts, soya, Vitamin E, fish oil… You’ll be surprised of how your way of eating and staying hydrated influence the growth of your nails (and your hair!)
• Trim your nails regularly (we recommend you to do it every 2 weeks, but it can be more if your nails tend to grow quickly.
• Minimise the use of chemical products such as doing too many Shellac manis/pedis as the UV light can be a bit harmful for the nails if used too often.
• Keep a regular nail grooming as it can ecourage the grwoth and reducing the breakage. For example, keep your nails clean. Moisturise your hands (especially during the Winter) and cuticles, avoid to bit your nail. Have you tried our Nourishing Cuticle Oil? A real treat for your nails!

Bel-Air Restaurants

A relative newcomer to the London food scene. Bel-air is shaking up to cities lunch options with its sunshine on a plate. Inspired by the Californian fresh eating ethos, not everything on the menu is vegan or even vegetarian, but a good selection is. And the freshness and ever changing options are exciting and flavour packed.  Even Jamie Oliver is a big fan!

With three locations already, we are praying they move west so we can enjoy these delights every day.  Paul St EC2A, The Cheesegrater EC3V, New Fetter Lane EC4A www.bel-air.co
