The Hidden Dangers Lurking Under Your Nails

It’s not just about looks...what’s hiding under your nails can seriously impact your health.

Underneath that glossy manicure, a whole host of harmful microorganisms could be thriving. Here’s what you need to know:

Fungal infections: like onychomycosis can creep in, turning nails yellow, thick, and crumbly.

Bacterial threats such as Staphylococcus aureus don’t just cause redness or swelling, they can escalate into serious skin infections and even life-threatening conditions.

Yeast infections from Candida don’t just stay put, they can spread and trigger full-body allergic reactions.

Your nails are more than a beauty statement, they're a health priority. Clean, protect, and care for them like your well-being depends on it, because it does.
