Take care of your nails in the monsoon
While long nails look beautiful and can be alluring, it is also important to keep it clean, especially during the monsoon to avoid getting ill. So, trim your nails or opt for shorter lengths so that it is easier to keep clean and hygienic. The humidity and damp weather can cause infectious bacteria to germinate. So wash your hands after each time you go out and also remember to dry them well. Sprinkle anti-fungal powder or talcum powder around your fingernails to prevent an infection.
