1. Keep Your Nails Hydrated
Hydrated nails are less prone to breakage and chipping. Use a moisturizing nail cream or cuticle oil regularly to keep your nails healthy and strong.
2. Avoid Harsh Chemicals
Avoid exposing your nails to harsh chemicals like acetone and formaldehyde. These can weaken the nails and cause them to become brittle.
3. Trim and Shape Your Nails
Regularly trim and shape your nails to prevent them from splitting and breaking. Use a nail file to smooth out any rough edges.
4. Wear Gloves
When doing chores or working with harsh chemicals, always wear gloves to protect your nails from damage.
5. Use a Base Coat
Applying a base coat before painting your nails helps to protect them from staining and can also help your manicure last longer.
