-
Good evening, and thank you for joining us.
-
Tonight I'm with my sister, Astrid,
-
and I will take care of her hands
-
using natural and homemade products.
-
So I will speak french from time to time.
-
First I will cleanse your hands
-
with a purifying lotion.
-
And then I'll have a closer look.
-
So I'm using purifying water.
-
And now let's have a closer look at these hands.
-
Alright, no red spots.
-
And a beautiful skin.
-
Alright.
-
No scars.
-
A very smooth skin.
-
Perfect.
-
Good, and now let's have a look
-
at these bitten nails.
-
A tiny scar here...
-
It's been there for a long time ? (yes)
-
Here as well.
-
Alright it's not so bad.
-
A bit of castor oil will do.
-
Good.
-
First, we will exfoliate your hands,
-
and to gently exfoliate the skin
-
I'm going to use some honey
-
and some organic sugar.
-
And here we go.
-
This is buckthorn honey.
-
(buckthorn honey, I guess ?)
-
And it will moisturize the skin.
-
A bit more.
-
And that should be enough.
-
Perfect.
-
There.
-
And here we go.
-
It will remove dead skin
-
and make the hands softer.
-
On the other side.
-
Gently...
-
And in the water...
-
Alright.
-
Wiping the water off gently...
-
Perfect.
-
Perfect,
-
and now I will take care of your nails.
-
And first I'm going to gently push back the cuticles.
-
Let's start with the smaller one...
-
And it shouldn't be painful at all,
-
Otherwise let me know.
-
There is not that much to push back.
-
And this will allow the nails
-
to look a bit longer
-
and healthier.
-
Alright.
-
The thumb...
-
And... this one looks good.
-
Perfect.
-
Now I will massage your fingertips with castor oil.
-
This is castor oil and
-
it's very good for the nails,
-
the hair, the lashes,
-
it helps them grow faster and stronger.
-
Here we go.
-
This is a very thick oil
-
(very thick)
-
and greasy.
-
So we won't use a lot.
-
And now I'm going to gently massage the nails.
-
The forefinger...
-
and the thumb.
-
It's very easy to do this at home as well.
-
Especially if you tend to bite your nails.
-
You can do this a few times a week.
-
And it's very good for you.
-
A castor oil bottle can last a very long time.
-
This one is done.
-
And the other...
-
Same here, I'm going to gently massage the fingertips.
-
Third finger...
-
And we're almost done.
-
Last finger...
-
Perfect.
-
I'm just going to check if the oil was properly absorbed
-
on each finger.
-
Perfect...
-
And on this one...
-
No oil left as well.
-
Perfect.
-
Alright.
-
And now we're going to take care of the skin.
-
I will combine raw shea butter
-
with and rosewood essential oil.
-
(So, shea butter and rosewood essential oil)
-
which is one of the best oils for the skin.
-
So...
-
Sweet orange...
-
Eucalyptus...
-
Peppermint...
-
Thyme...
-
Lavender...
-
Cryptomeria...
-
Rose...
-
Rosewood.
-
And here we go.
-
So, a bit of shea butter.
-
We don't need a lot.
-
That should be enough.
-
And, a few drops of essential oil.
-
1, 2, 3, 4.... 5.
-
Stiring together...
-
To make it homogeneous.
-
And here we go.
-
It might seem thick, but it's going to melt
-
with the skin's warmth.
-
(it looks a bit thick but it's going to melt
-
because the skin is warm)
-
And I'm going to massage the hand
-
by doing circles.
-
With a bit of pressure
-
but not too much.
-
Same on this one.
-
Circular movements with a bit of pressure.
-
It should never be painful.
-
And same for the fingers...
-
Massaging the whole finger.
-
Same on the other side...
-
Circular movements on each finger.
-
Shea butter will nourish the skin
-
(shea butter is very nourishing)
-
and the massage will stimulate the blood flow.
-
Last one...
-
And same on the other side,
-
I'm going to open the palm.
-
And massage every finger.
-
There.
-
And now, I will wipe off the shea butter
-
with a towel.
-
And I will do this gently.
-
This step is still part of the massage,
-
so it must be relaxing.
-
And let's have a look...
-
Perfect.
-
Brand new hands.
-
Good.
-
I hope you found that you found this video relaxing
-
and as always
-
we wish you a very good night.
