Vitamin E can help nourish brittle nails.
How to use:
-
Break open a vitamin E capsule.
-
Massage the oil into the nail and cuticle area nightly.
Consistency is key.
8️⃣ Proper Nail Trimming
Sometimes the best “remedy” is maintenance.
Keep nails:
-
Trimmed straight across
-
Filed smooth
-
Clean and dry
Avoid cutting too short, which can lead to ingrown nails.
9️⃣ Switch to Breathable Footwear
Constant moisture weakens nails.
Choose:
-
Shoes with airflow
-
Cotton or moisture-wicking socks
-
Sandals when possible
Allow your feet to dry fully after showers.
🔟 Take Breaks From Nail Polish
Continuous polish and harsh removers can weaken nail structure.
Give your nails:
-
At least 1–2 weeks polish-free between applications
Let them breathe and rebuild naturally.
