curry stained nails

I’m surprised this is not a more talked about topic because a Gel Polish manicure is hella expensive and no one wants their cute summer colors stained with curry!

I’ve actually considered eating my roti and curry with a fork and knife because of this issue. I don’t want to choose between having cute stain free nails and eating curry. It’s not fair!    

 I have not found anything that works really well other than using nail polish remover to wipe nails down with right after I am done eating. I did some research and found some tips. Let me know if any of these work for you.

 1.      Soak your fingers in lemon juice for about ten minutes. The lemon juice works as a natural astringent and bleach that lifts the stain off of your nails. Buffing your nails will also help remove the stain.

 2.      You can also rub potato on your nails to remove slight stains

 3.      Rub your fingers and nails with vinegar and cleanse them with water

 4.      Take teaspoonful of table salt and few drops of olive oil and mix well. Apply it on your nails for 10-15 min and rinse. This natural remedy isn’t just great to get rid of yellow stains, it also moisturizes your cuticles

 5.      Use Nail Brite to scrub off stain
