Cover Your Eyes

My short, bare nails are out and about! I've never had the nicest nails but I was happy enough covering them with nail polish. However, recently I became fed up with all the peeling, chipping and breaking so I decided to file them down as low as I dared and tried to get rid of all the imperfections.




Now I'm starting a proper nail care routine. I'm soaking my nails in olive oil once a week, applying Vaseline Hand & Nail lotion three times a day and using Essence Ultra Strong Nail Repair as a base coat.


Hopefully this new routine will help me to have stronger and healthier nails.
Is there anything else I could try?
Bye for now,
Laura

  3. Ooh do update how it does.
    On my days off I cut my thumb and index nails really short too to get rid of the splits and thin bits. They've only just grown back out this week and today I've made four cracks :( despite wearing layers of clear polish
