This party season: pamper those paws

11 Nov 2010 05:00 AM | Posted by bh'sOlivia

Nothing can ruin your party mojo quicker than rough hands or a muddled mani, which is why you need to ensure you have a few pampering party essentials on hand (pardon the pun).

So let me introduce you to a gift you’ll be gagging to get your hands (there’s that pun again!) on this holiday season. The Revitanail Christmas Gift Set is packed full of the products your hands and feet pine for most – including products to look after weak, damaged nails (hello Nail Strengthener and Nourishing Oil!) – so that you can rock a party pink polish, no sweat.

Also included in the Gift Set are Revitanail Hand & Nail Cream and Dr. LeWinn’s Revitalising Hand & Foot Polish: this dream team keeps both hands and feet looking healthy and feeling super soft.

So go on, spoil someone with this sensational gift set this Christmas, or take pity on a friend with a less-than marvellous mani!

What’s your secret to happy hands and nice nails?

Revitanail is my favourite for growing beautiful strong, long nails and I love Clarins Hand Treatment for soft and moisturised hands. I will be wanting the Revitanail Set for Christmas so I can try the products I haven't used before.

I love my Parafin wax treatments...
But also rubbing my hands in thick rich moisteriser and placing cotton gloves on my hands and leaving it over night always wake up with luxouriously soft hands...

I love to slather on some body lotion or cream (no need for feet specific cream) on my feet, put on a pair of socks before i go to bed.

Keeping my nails a short length so I don't have to worry about them too much keeps them looking better nowadays than if I try to grow them all the same length and a bit longer (as I do a lot of washing and they get water and detergent on them a lot, as well as a big passion of mine which is gardening).

I also find that during the summer months my nails grow quicker - so the summer season itself is bit of a secret to happy nails!

Regards to products available, I've falled head-over-heels for the Sally Hansen Nail Sheilds. They spruce up my hands and make my nails heaps healthier too. I also slather handcream every night before bed - I'm currently using the Trilogy one but I adore the Jurlique one and also the Neostrata one which is awesome!

I don't have a secret but I wish I did - my hands and nails are always trashed. Sometimes I just smear a really rich moisturiser - something like Body Shop Body Butter - all over them in a thick layer and sit there watching TV while it sinks in. Gross, but it does help.

Revitanail is so expensive though, I'd love to get it but can't justify spending that much on it.. I know it works great though, heard a lot of good things about it from friends!
My way to keep my hands and nails pretty is ALWAYS use gloves when washing dishes, use hand cream every night, and definitely ALWAYS use a base and top coat! Also, I try not to get lazy these days and actually make time once a week to treat my nails to a nice manicure..

Lordy, my hands are always a mess. Nursing = bad for hands. There's no point using anything moisturising at work, as it gets washed straight off.

Every night I apply cuticle oil and slather beautiful and luxurious hand cream (L'Occitane, Crabtree & Evelyn or Jurlique) before I go to bed. Use handcream regularly throughout the day. I have handcream in nearly every room of my home as well as in my handbag.

What a great gift set! Perfect for my mum who I'm currently trying to advise in the art of hand & nail maintenance.

Sunscreen is essential on hands and feet in addition to a pampering with scented hand cream of course......and a regular trim. My nails tend to grow too quickly so I must be doing something right:)

I trim my nails often and use hand cream daily. Sometimes I apply Vaseline to the knuckles, which deeply moisturises them, though doesn't look very nice at all haha

Even though I hate cutting my nails, keeping them short means they're always even and a nice shape. And I use my lovely face scrub on the backs of my hands in the shower - they need an occasional pamper too!

I apply hand cream after every hand wash and keep my nails in proper shape.

A nice handcream when needed, regular DIY mani's help keep my hands and nails in order. the Revitanial kit here sounds like a good ides and great gift. I like the Dr Lewinns hand cream, greatto see it in the pack. Sadly my toes are suffering at the moment and i'm not to happy because summer and Christmas are creeping up fast and i'd love to sport some nice colours.
