Have you noticed that your nails have taken on a yellow tint, and you’re wondering what’s going on?

Don’t panic, you’re not alone! This problem can have many causes, often easy to identify.

Once the cause of your yellow nails has been identified, take action! In this post, Maryton will tell you some suitable and simple solutions to regain healthy and shiny nails.

1. Specific creams and oils: nourish and protect

Sometimes, yellow nails are fragile and damaged. Moisturizing and strengthening them is essential to prevent them from yellowing further. Here are some essential products:

• Keratin-enriched creams: These creams strengthen the structure of the nail and prevent stains.
• Fortifying oils (castor, argan): Apply a few drops every evening to deeply nourish the nails and stimulate their regrowth.

Bonus: Lightly massage your nails after application to allow the product to penetrate well and activate blood circulation. In addition, when trimming your nails, be sure to use a professional manicure kit to protect your nails to avoid infection caused by inferior products.

2. Specific products against yellow nails

If you are looking for quick and effective solutions, here are some products specially designed to treat yellow nails:

• Treat fungal infections with antifungals: In case of infection, opt for an antifungal cream or a treatment varnish available in pharmacies (such as Excilor or Ciclopirox).
• Whitening varnishes: They mask yellow stains and strengthen keratin.
