- Keep nails clean and dry
This prevents bacteria and fungal infections.

Use cuticle oil or hand cream to avoid dryness and cracking.

It weakens nails and damages the nail bed.

Cuticles protect nails from infection—push them back gently instead.

Give your natural nails breaks to recover and breathe.
