Brittle nails are caused by various factors such as: extreme
weather conditions, humidity, over-exposure to the sun, nail polishes and nail
polish removers, excess use of water, harsh detergents and chemicals. Besides
these external factors, dry, peeling nails can appear due to several illnesses,
aging, vitamin deficiency or insufficient water intake.
Using nail strengtheners on a daily basis is another great
method to cure brittle nails. Nail strengtheners should be applied in the same
way as nail polishes, covering your nails with a thin coat of product. In order
to ideally nourish your fingernails, opt for a nail strengthener, which
contains vitamin B,Ca or protein.
