Kandalec recommends using a fine-grit file to protect your nails.
“When choosing file grits, go for a 400-grit file.
Never use coarse grits below 180they’re too harsh and can cause damage.
Also, avoid old-fashioned emery boards since their grits aren’t regulated like modern files.”
How you apply the formula also matters, according to our experts.
“Supplements with biotin, calcium, and keratin can enhance strength and promote growth,” Choi says.
As always, consult a medical professional before buying or taking new vitamins or supplements.
“Your nails have a finite number of layers, like a sheet of puff pastry.
Once those layers are gone, they’re gone until the nail fully grows back out.
Think of it like the skin barrier on your faceyou’d do everything to repair it.
Treat your hands and nails the same way.”
Removal is seamless, too.
Coat your hands in oil and let it seep between the press-on and your nail to loosen the adhesive.
It’s a great way to treat your hands while safely lifting off the nails.”
