Drinking carrot juice is also found to be very beneficial for the nails as it is very rich in calcium and phosphorus, which helps in strengthening of the nails.

Trim your cuticles once a week. You can use a cuticle clipper for this purpose. Soften your cuticles by the daily application of cuticle cream. Applying a mixture of equal amounts of white iodine and castor oil also helps in cuticle care.

Application of olive oil and almond oil helps not only in keeping the cuticles soft and smooth, but it also helps in providing you with shiny and healthy nails.

Always clip your nails in a round or square shape. If you keep the tips of your nail very sharp, then the chances of them breaking are very high. Do not apply nail polish always as it causes nail yellowing .The more the nails are allowed to breathe, the healthier they become. Also a hand massage will boost your circulation and encourage nail growth.
