Long Life to Your Nails: Nail-Saving Hacks Inspired by the Pepsi Ring
Picture this: you’re about to open a can, but that tiny task could spell disaster for your freshly done manicure. Sound familiar? Enter the Pepsi Ring—a clever innovation blending fashion and function to protect your nails.
Nail art enthusiasts, this one’s for you! Pepsi Spain has unveiled a unique accessory that’s creating a buzz both for its practicality and its style: the Pepsi Ring. Designed to solve a common frustration—damaging your manicure while opening a can—this limited-edition ring combines functionality and elegance in a way that’s turning heads.
Crafted from 925 sterling silver and adorned with white zirconias, the Pepsi Ring features a hidden can opener at its base. Developed in collaboration with Long Play Jewels and the creative agency PS21, the ring isn’t just a tool—it’s a fashion statement. Inspired by the Spanish artist Bad Gyal, who famously broke a nail on a Pepsi can, the brand even created a customized version for her, using yellow gold and diamonds.
Simply place the ring on your middle finger, hook the tab of a Pepsi can into its base, and lift effortlessly. Your nails remain flawless, and you get to enjoy your drink in style. Available in various sizes for men and women, this ring is a perfect blend of ingenuity and sophistication.
But beyond its viral appeal, it raises a vital question:
how can we better care for our nails to keep them healthy and manicures flawless?
Healthy nails are the foundation of a long-lasting manicure. By adopting small, intentional habits, you can avoid the damage that leads to chipping, peeling, or breaking—issues we all want to avoid. The Pepsi Ring is not only a fun and innovative way to protect your nails, but it also highlights the importance of good nail care.
Whether you're rocking extensions, gel polish, or a natural manicure, here are some practical tips inspired by the Pepsi Ring to protect and keep your nails strong and your manicure lasting longer:
Avoid Using Nails as Tools: From opening packages to scraping stickers, these actions weaken nails and cause cracks. Keep a small toolkit handy to save your nails the stress.
Use Gloves for Household Chores: Exposure to water and cleaning agents can dry out nails and lead to breakage. Gloves create a protective barrier while you tackle chores.
Apply Cuticle Oil Daily: Hydrated cuticles support healthy nail growth and keep nails flexible, reducing the risk of splits.
Keep Nails Filed and Even: Rough edges snag easily and can lead to breaks. Use a gentle nail file to smooth and shape your nails.
Opt for Nail-Friendly Products: Non-acetone removers and high-quality polishes help maintain the integrity of your nails.
