The 5 most important tips for filing nails

With these tips, you will get beautiful nails:

    1. Never file your nails immediately after showering or bathing, as the water softens the nails and they can tear more easily as a result.
    2. If a nail has already torn, always cut it with scissors first and then file it.
    3. It is also very important to always file in one direction only, from the side to the center. Doing it the other way around can cause the edges to splinter.
    4. If you have strong nails, you can use a sandpaper file to shape them.
    5. For soft or even brittle nails, it is better to use a mineral file.
