Toe nail fungus is the bane of beach goers everywhere. You want to slip into those sandles and have cute men admiring your perfectly coiffed toe nails and the slender shape of your ankles not cringing at the sight of yellow brittle nails.

After a not so pleasant experience at a nail salon, my big toe was in desperate need of attention. I tried all the so called specialized products with no luck, then my mom told me about an old remedy that sounded strange but actually worked - Vicks.

Yes, vicks the cure all that your mom used for every cold and cough actually seems to work on toe nail fungus. Just spread that menthol concoction on your toe a few times a day and you will actually be amazed at how quickly the nail fungus begins to fade away.

You will begin to notice that the dense nail begins to thin and a newer healthier nail starts to grow in. It also helps if you can keep your feet bare as much as possible. Bacteria loves heat so socks, especially colored ones, seem to aggravate the symptoms.

Now no one beauty treatment will work for everyone. This one worked wonders for me so I thought I would pass it along. Try it for yourself and get ready to strap on your sexiest pair of sandles this summer.

Sincerely,
