• Use a good moisturizer on your nails. Make sure you work the moisturizer into the cuticles and nails after every hand wash. Coconut oil and almond oil are excellent moisturizing oils for rubbing into your nails and cuticles.

• Cuticles act as a barrier for bacteria. Hence, avoid getting them trimmed while getting manicures at salon or home. You can moisturize and push them back with a cuticle pusher. Trim away only the dead skin.
• Avoid using harsh nail polishes loaded with chemicals. Quick drying nail polishes often have toxic chemicals such as toluene, dimethyl, dibutyle phthalate and camphor among theirs. However, some imported nail paints are devoid of these chemicals. Make sure to read the labels before investing in them. Water based polishes are the best option, although they do not last long enough.
• When going for manicures, remember to shape your nails in a square rather than pointed. Pointed nails break easily and take on a lot of dirt than square shaped nails.
• Keep your nails as natural as long as possible. Not only have they looked clean but also stylish and breathable. Trim, file and buff them whenever necessary. Do not saw them back and forth. Instead, file them only in one direction.
• Acetone tends to be very harsh on your nails and skin around them. Choose an acetone free nail polish remover that is less harsh on your nails.
