BRITTLE NAILS
Horsetail contains minerals that may help with weak and brittle fingernails and white spots in the nails. Reportedly, simply taking Horsetail extract daily and soaking the brittle nails into Horsetail infusion may strengthen and repair the nails. To make Horsetail infusion, steep 2 teaspoons of dried herb in a boiling cup of water for 10 minutes. Let it cool down and soak the nails for about 20 minutes. After 20 minutes of soaking, pat dry the nails and apply a mixture of equal parts of lukewarm extra virgin olive oil and lemon juice thoroughly. Wrap your fingers with fine cotton cloth for overnight. Repeat this remedy for at least 3-4 times a week.
