How to Treat Yellow Finger Nails with Natural Home Remedies

If you want to treat yellow finger nails, there are several simple, natural home remedies that you can use to treat them. Instead of using potentially toxic treatments from beauty supply stores, use the following treatments to get your nails looking clean and white again.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

1. Cut open a fresh lemon and apply the juice to your yellow finger nails. Lemon juice has natural bleaching properties, which will get your yellow fingernails looking white again. Repeat this treatment once a day until you are satisfied that the yellow has faded.

2. Use a fine-grit buffer on the surface of your fingernails. The buffer will lightly sand off the surface of your yellow finger nails. Do this gently, taking care not to remove too thick of a layer of your nails.

3. Soak in lemon essential oil. Fill a large bowl with a few inches of slightly hot water, and place a smaller empty bowl in the water. Make sure the water level is such that it will not spill over into the small bowl. The bottom of the small bowl should be touching the bottom of the large bowl. Put an inch or two of lemon essential oil in the smaller bow, and soak your finger tips in it. Done daily, this should whiten your yellow finger nails within a couple of weeks.
