How to strengthen nails

Many people consider that nail strengtheners can help their nails.

However, nail hardeners and strengtheners are great for weak and peeling nails when applied in the short term. However, should you use them for three weeks in succession then your nails can get too hard, making them brittle and easily breakable.

Rub cream into your nails

It is better to rub hand cream into your nails and nail oil into your cuticles each time you wash your hands.

Wrap a cotton wool pad around an orange stick (a thin, pointed stick) and cover it with remover. Then gently remove the varnish from your nail, getting as little remover as possible on the cuticle.

Using an orange cuticle stick is beneficial since it stops you covering the whole cuticle in remover, avoiding dryness and cracking.
