How can I stop breaking and chipping nails?

ANSWER: Treat nails as if they have just been polished.
Don't use nails for such things as scraping, picking, pulling or opening things. Use the pads of fingertips instead of the nails.
Doing so will not only protect your nails from breaking, chipping or peeling, but will make your hand movements appear more graceful as well!

How do I prevent dry and cracking nails?

ANSWER: Consistent moisturising will keep your nails and cuticles looking neat and tidy.
Unfortunately, hand creams aren't emollient enough to keep cuticles from cracking and drying, so you'll need added protection.
The best prevention to dry and cracking nails and cuticles is to apply a protection to make it strong and last long. Please ask our professional nail technicians for more details.

How can I keep my cuticles healthy?

ANSWER: By a regular manicure as the cuticle acts as a seal between the finger and the nail.
Gently exfoliating the dry, rough, cuticle skin layers by actually sloughing off the dead outer layers exposes new and vibrant skin.
This new healthy skin protects the nails matrix which is the growth centre of the nail and should be treated with care.
