Choosing nail repair

Start with the problem you want to address. Strengtheners are for thin or peeling nails, ridge fillers smooth uneven surfaces, and cuticle products target dry skin around the nail. Check the label to see which group a product belongs to.

Then look at form and details. Liquids and gels spread thinly over small areas, while creams suit dry cuticles. Check the ingredient list, the directions, and whether the product is for natural nails, artificial nails, or both. Size and finish are matters of preference, and a smaller bottle is an easy way to try something new.

Using nail repair

Clean and dry your nails before applying anything so the product sits evenly. Use thin layers and let each one dry fully. Follow the label for how often to apply, since heavier layers do not speed up results.

Be patient. Nails grow slowly, so changes take time to show. If a product irritates your skin or nails, stop using it.
