Do you use your finger nails for screwdrivers? Or your nails as miniature crow bars to pry off the lids of things? Many women do both and then complain about how easily their nails split and tear. If you want pretty nails don’t use them as tools. Don’t clean them with a steel file point. Don’t file them way down at the corners. Do clean them with a wisp of absorbent cotton twisted around the tip of an orange wood stick. Do use an emery board to taper them from above where the nail meets the skin. Do buff the nails frequently and buffing in one direction only, toward the finger tips. Don’t know what happened to Chit Chat on this tip. My friend informs me that it looks like those with beautiful nails already know that in order to preserve them you should treat them very carefully.

I had to comment on nail files used by manicurist in the salon. Please make sure they are sanitary!! If an item is porous it can't be sanitized! Throw your files away if they are porous. They should only be used by one person. This is basic sanitation, check it out, the cosmetology school does does it right!
