Give Your Nails A Break!

So today I was going to paint my nails in the spirit of Chinese New Year tomorrow, but after removing my nail polish I realized that my nails were peeling and becoming brittle. I was very alarmed, so here are some tips and trick for having brittle, peeling nails like me (:|) 

Livestrong stated that the cause of these brittle, peeling nails are due to excessive use of acetone based nail polish remover (guilty of doing this) or excessive washing and drying such as doing the dishes. Some solution is to switch to a nail polish remover without acetone and wear gloves or GIVE YOUR NAILS A BREAK FROM NAIL POLISH! This is what I am doing because using this is making my nails very weak and prone to peeling and can cause very ugly looking nails in the future. So give your nails a break though I know it will look ugly in the beginning, but trust me it is worth it! Also, fish oil and water is known to health give healthy looking nails. My mom also told me jello would help cuticles and stronger nails because of the stuff inside! I know it is going to be hard, but your nails will appreciate the chance to breathe and heal themselves!
