Vertical Nail Lines On Fingernails

by Fran L.
(Greenfield, New York)

I hand wash my dishes all the time and I have been noticing that one by one, the nails on my fingers are getting very noticeable vertical (some raised) lines. (Nails are natural color, and normal thickness). I do not use nail polish or hand creams and my diet is fairly decent nutrition-wise. Could it be I'm having my hands in water too much? Is there any alternative dish washing soap I can use? I dislike wearing gloves.

Thanks for your answer. F.L. Greenfield, New York

Hello Fran,

What you should know is that dish soap, like most soaps and shampoos on the market, contain dangerous chemicals including sodium lauryl sulfate, SD alcohol, fragrance, ammonia and DMDM and dyes.

The sodium lauryl sulfate (and its various forms) found in our soaps is exactly the same as you would find in a car wash or even a garage, where it is used to degrease car engines. In the same way as it dissolves the grease on car engines, sodium lauryl sulfate also dissolves the oils on your skin, which can cause a drying effect. It is also well documented that it denatures skin proteins, which causes not only irritation, but also allows environmental contaminants easier access to the lower, sensitive layers of the skin.

DMDM is a preservative that releases formaldehyde, (formaldehyde based solutions are used in embalming to disinfect and temporarily preserve human remains pending final disposition), triggering skin irritations and even heart palpitations.

Ammonia and SD alcohol are harsh and drastically dry out the skin and nails.

Fragrance and dyes are synthetic ingredients that can cause allergic reactions.

Fran, you will certainly want to do an internet search to find a natural dish washing soap since you do much dish washing and your skin is exposed to soap and water constantly. I further, highly recommend the following to you to restore and preserve your nails and hands.

Use our MY DAUGHTER'S HAND & BODY THERACREAM to be applied a minimum of twice daily. Because your hands are constantly being used to wash dishes, you will want to apply a small dab on each nail several more times a day until your nails are totally healed over. This thick and rich cream is hypo-allergenic and filled with wholesome ingredients will help keep your nails and hands healthy as well as add a protective layer to your nails and skin and restore much needed moisture.

You may also want to consider using our FACE & BODY MOISTURIZING WASH which will not deplete the PH of the nails and skin as most soaps and cleansers do but will begin the healing process and add much needed moisture to the 7 skin layers.
Please keep me posted on your progress Fran.

Warm Regards,
Nanette
