My favorite tip for maintaining healthy nails is using a good base & top coat. Also, a glass or crystal file is a necessity for anyone doing their nails at home.
Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize! Your cuticles will never look ragged and your nails will never look dry! Also, always wear gloves when cleaning!
I make a home-made nail and cuticle oil that helps them to be stronger and they grow faster if I use it every night before I go to bed. Mix in a storage bottle 20 drops of laventer essential oil, 10 drops of lemon essential oil, 1 tbsp of almond oil, and 1 tbsp of jojoba oil. I love it.
I always keep them short and clean
Gorgeous colors! I love that they are making a strong effort to creat a nice product that is more than just the nailpolish standard of “clean”.
I continually have a tube of hand cream by my side and I USE it! ;0)
Burts Bee’s Lemon Butter Cuticle Cream!
My fav Tip for maintaining healthy nails is to pamper my nails with the Burt’s Bees Lemon Butter Cuticle Cream.
for me to have healthy nails, I have to keep them short, keep using hand and cuticle cream regularly, and eat healthy foods with lots of protein, because my nails are prone to bending.
Color Club makes some of my favorite polishes so I’m sure these will be great. 🙂
I bought myself a glass nail file about a month ago. It may be too soon to say it’s helping, but I feel like I’ve been able to maintain the shape of my nails better with it. Until I started using it, they were a mix of square and oval. Now they all stay the same basic shape, even if I have to re-file a little.
I make sure my nails are filed down so they don’t break!
Use moisturizer for your cuticles.
I use a glass file, and keeping nails polished works for me.Keep my nails strong.
Moisturizing and using a good base and top coat! 🙂
I find that my nails are most healthy when I intake vitamins either through food or through supplements. Also integral to maintaining healthy nails is regularly trimming and buffing my nails to prevent splits or breaks.
I just make sure to use plenty of oil and hand cream.
Because of my Hashimoto’s my nails don’t grow well. They are uber thin, brittle and weak. I wear falsies which I know are not at all good for the nails but that is the only way I can have decent nails.
My toe nails grow like wildfire. LOL! I make sure to also use oil and creams on my feet and nails. My most fav products are Seche Vite’s dry fast top coat
As I was saying my fav products are Seche Vite’s dry fast top coat, any Ahava cream (hand, foot & body) and lastly Heal Tastic … Yes, the made for Tele stuff. It honestly does work and is my go to dry foot balm. BTW, do NOT use it on your hands. It aggravated my eczema something horrible 🙁
I make sure to keep polish on my nails at all times. Polish isn’t just pretty, it’s really great for protecting the nails, too!
drink lots of water.

I swear by almond oil and CND Cuticle Remover!
I would love to win! It seems like a great polish set.
Aww, I’m not a U.S. resident. 🙁 Super sad face…
Thank you for this giveaway though! Very generous of you. 🙂
Keeping them painted! I find them far less likely to chip or break if I have a base coat + 2 coats of polish + 2 coats of top coat. Only filing nails in one direction as opposed to a “sawing” motion has really helped as well!
Trim them weekly
dont bite your nails! also good for your teeth not to do this
The way I maintain my nails is constant hydration. I live in Barrow, AK. Way up above the arctic circle, so it’s always dry here. And if I don’t keep my nails hydrated they just constantly crack on me.
My hands and cuticles get really dry in the wintertime, so moisturizing is really important 🙂
My #1 nail tip is to use a good base coat! Also moisturize your hands, especially in the winter.
always use a top coat when using nail polish. Always have a nail filer (in purse, office, etc.) because you never know when you’ll break/chip a nail and it helps to fix it with a nail file
My favorite tip for maintaining healthy nails is to keep them moisturized and nicely filed!
using a good top coat/base coat for your nails and moisturizing!
Glass nail files are sooo essential to making sure my nails don’t peel or flake! also removing nail polish when it starts to chip so I’m not tempted to peel the polish off and damage my nails
I love Color Club polishes. They deserve more shine.
It’s important to not only moisturizer your cuticles, but your nails as well. Breakage is often due to dryness. I’m constantly moisturizing my hands, nails, and cuticles especially in these winter months.
always file nails going in one direction.
My favorite tip is to file away or fix any breaks or tears as soon as possible. I’m a reformed nail biter, and I’ve found that if I don’t take care of issues, I’ll either pick at them or bite my nails just to get rid of it.
My favorite nail tip is using cuticle oil to soften up and moisturize them so they look healthy and feel soft, not dried out during the winter.
Filing them to a shorter length and applying OPI’s Nail Envy
Remove dead skin on the sides of ur nails.
Using a good base coat.
Using a nail product called NailTek!
Moisture gloves worn at bedtime.
Using a good base and top coat help to maintain nails healthy. also filing nails in one direction and using a cuticle oil.
I try to take care of my cuticles – moisturize, use a cuticle remover, etc.
I use a scrub to maintain my nails and cuticles and I should really start wearing gloves while cleaning!
Favorite tip, there are two actually… keep them well filed and hydrated.
My tips for healthy nails
For me, my nails behave pretty well as long as I file them on a regular basis and put some form of polish on them to protect them. It probably also doesn’t hurt to take a multi-vitamin.
Regular trips to the nail salon for mani and pedi 🙂
Use a growth serum and keep nails trimmed/neat!
I would have to say OPI’s Nail Envy is my favorite. It makes my nails so strong and thick, and it also helps them to grow faster.
I love nail polish!
moisturize as much as possible
drink milk
I like to keep polish on my nails almost all the time because it helps keep them protected
I use olive oil on my cuticles at least once a day
i use a nail hardener! 🙂
My favorite tip for maintaining healthy nails is to just use a glass file, and never use nail clippers.
I have this hand/nail cream called Hard as Hooves(or something… don’t remember. Sorry.) That I use often, I have a nail strengthener I use a couple times a week. I keep a crystal nail file in my purse and on my nightstand to use whenever my nails get rough or feel like they are going to crack. I also take biotin. I recently got fake nails and hated them, now my natural nails are trashed. 🙁
Probably my favorite tip is to apply cuticle oil every night before bed. Even my boyfriend likes this!
This polish looks really great!
Moisturize every day!! Vitamin E gel caps are my favorite moisturizer.
I ALWAYS keep lotion or cuticle cream by the bedside. I’m more likely to spend time rubbing it in right before I go to bed; it’s soothing and keeps my cuticles from getting dry!
My tip would be to keep your hands moisturized. Nothing like silky smooth hands!
I use a good base and top coat, and I let my nails breathe with no nail polish for at least 2 days a week!
My favorite and easiest tip is always moisturizing my hands after I wash them, it also helps my nails and they are stronger.
I moisturize my cuticles daily 🙂
My most important tip for keeping your nails nice and healthy is to use the correct nail buffer followed by a super awesome base coat.
I suggest a nail buffer sold at Sally’s Beauty supply: All Season Fine Grit Yellow Finishing Block. Its very fine so it does not over buff your nails. You should buff your nails once a week or once every two weeks; NOT every time you paint your nails.
Then, I suggest Sally Hansen’s nail strengthener, which is the purple bottle in their Continuous Treatment line 🙂 This strengthener will help your nails from chipping and breaking, and will promote growth.
And, OF COURSE, Lemony Flutter for some extra moister! 😉
i always use a hand/cuticle cream or lotion after i wash my hands.
I like to make sure my cuticles are nice and moisturized!
Cute set! CC polishes are always fun 🙂 Best nail tip: hydration both internally and externally.
my tip for maintaining great nails are vitamins, a good base coat and a good glass file for clean filing.
Definitely use a good base coat because it reduces the staining of darker polishes especially red!
Favorite tip for maintaining healthy nails is….DON’T bite them! I used to bite my nails when I was younger and now that I’m paining them and stopped biting them, my nails have never looked better!
I use Burt Bees Lemon Cuticle Cream its the best and it smells awesome!
I love using burt’s bees cuticle cream
Moisturize and use a nail hardener twice a day.
I love that bright red shade by the way
a good base coat is a must!
To keep my nails healthy, I try to be diligent about using a good base when I paint them. 🙂
I do not bit my nails, where gloves when working with water or minimize my time so that they are softened.
I swear by OPI nail envy. I prefer the matte version, so that when I don’t have on other polish, I can forget it’s there (no temptation to pick at it). That and don’t use your fingernails as tools!!
Great giveaway! I hope to win this for my daughter.
give them a few days of a break between switching nail polishes!
oops didn’t answer the question….moisturize hands and cuticles
My favourite tip for maintaining healthy nails is also using a good base and top coat and also to wear nail varnish for one and a half days, then take it off with a good nail polish remover.
My main tips for having healthy nails and hands are:
Using rubber gloves for any heavy or drying work, wearing gloves when out in cold weather, always using sunscreen on hands if outdoors (melanoma survivor, here!), never using nails as “tools”, constant re-application of hand cream!
i have very bad nails, the top layer of my nails just peels and i’ve discovered taking one a day teen advantage has really helped my nails to be stronger and healhier.
drink water!
I drink LOADS AND LOADS AND LOADS of water – at least 7 glasses a day. It is actually a lot easier than I thought it would be since I carry a water bottle with me everywhere so whenever I get thirsty it’s the first thing I reach for (instead of soda/juice/coffee like I used to). 🙂 I’m vegetarian so I also make sure to eat a lot of lentils/legumes, nuts, etc to get a good amount of protein. My nails used to break/chip sooo easily before but ever since I started eating better & drinking more water – it’s not just my nails that are long & healthy, but also my skin is more clear than it’s ever been
always moisturize!
best tip I could give for healthy nails is to keep moisturized nails and cuticles.
I eat vitamins to help my nails stay strong. I always use a nail base before I paint my nails, too!
I moisturize my hands daily. Thanks!
Get enough calcium in your system to maintain strong nails!
I would love to try Color Club nail polish
file when needed and use lots of lotion on cuticles!
My favorite tip for maintaining healthy nails is using Burts Bee’s Lemon Butter Cuticle Cream!
It’s important to always file your nails. Not just the tips, but the sides too. Oh, & always put hand lotion on. If you don’t have hand lotion, just use regular lotion. It’s so important to keep your hands & nails hydrated.
I also always have some kind of nail strengthener on if I’m not wearing any polish at all. The strengthener acts as a barrier against water. Water weakens nails, so having a strengthener or even just some clear polish on will protect your nails and keep them strong.
<3 <3 <3
I drink a lot of water and use moisturizer!
I never let them get too long… I also try to file them to a “squoval” shape, so they’re stronger and don’t bend.
Burts Bee’s Cuticle Cream!
My #1 tip is to always use a base coat. And never bit your nails.
For my nails protection, I use gloves when ever possible, moisturize my cuticles with Burts Bee lemon cuticle butter, rub oil unto nails and cuticle, soak them, massage the hand and nail area and moisturize..

To maintain healthy nails, I eat a well-rounded diet with plenty of protein and moisturize my cuticles every night.
Do not bite your nails…if you break the habit you might find out your nails actually grow like mine…did it on a bet, and found out I had very strong nails that grow !
My favorite tip is using cuticle oil on cuticles AND nails (top and bottom).
Eat a balanced diet and consume or take the right vitamins, and always stay hydrated.
Always apply a moisturizer after washing your hands.
The tip I have for maintaining healthy nails is to not use them as tools, as I did for many years LOL! Thanks for the great giveaway!
Every week after my manicure, I buff my nails with buffing cream and a chamois buffer. I think that the buffing revs up the circulation to my nails and helps them to be strong and healthy.
Always use lotion!
I like to keep my nails short. Working in a hospital it’s a requirement! Constant hand washing dries them out and causes them to break.
Vitamin E oil is great for the cuticles!
not biting it :p
I’m currently using a nail strengthening cream!
I like to use a base coat! 🙂
a good base coat and moisturise!
Hmmm…I have really nice nails naturally and I get asked about them a lot. (Not trying to be an ego-maniac, but it’s true.) I’d like to give a tip about using a good cuticle cream or a special nail polish, but really my tip is to just have good genes!
My favourite tip for maintaining healthy nails is to ALWAYS use a base coat. It might seem like a trivial part of the nail care routine but, once youve used a bright yellow nail polish and found out that it is NEVER going to come off (or at least not for a few weeks), you realise the true importance of the base coat!
I wear rubber gloves when I do my dishes. Then a good cuticle oil is a must, and I am really loving my California Mango Balm for those days my skin is really dry.
Sea salt bath, followed by shea butter!! Savior for weak nails!
My tip for healthy nails: moisturize your cuticles, and eat your vitamins! Can’t have healthy nails if you’re not eating right 🙂
My tip is to keep cuticles moisturized and nails clean for healthy nails.
When growing my nails out, I keep them naked save for a good strengthening base- and several layers. My nails break a lot, so I really rely on Orly’s broken nail kit!
a healthy diet
Jojoba oil on the cuticles at night time.
i never scratch nail polish off and if my nails look especially dry after removing polish, i lotion them and let them “breathe” a bit…not sure if that helps but it’s what i do! haha hope i win 🙂 thanks for doing this giveaway!
In order to keep my nails healthy, I don’t always put nail polish on. When I DO use nail polish, I make sure to use a base coat. Whenever I don’t have nail polish on, I regularly clean them using a cotton swab and nail polish remover!
I “Rolling in the Deep” just for the name!
For healthy nails I slather on a mixture of extra virgin coconut oil with my Eucerin hand cream. It’s very moisturizing for my hands and my nails look great despite my constant changing and removing polish every couple of days.
I put vasanline on my hands & feet b4 going to bed on cold dry weather. Wak up w/the softest skin ever.
a tip that i do with my nails is to keep them trimmed and clean, buff them and always use a base coat before putting nail polish
trim them and moisturize~~~
My fave tips for maintaining nails is to use a good base and top coat and also moisturizing my nails and my cuticles to keep stronger nails.
I keep my nail polish chip free and filed smooth around the edges

Cuticle oil all the way…
cuticle oil/balm, bad cuticles are the most noticeable flaw on nails for me!
OPI Nail Envy!!! a must have
Definitely moisturizing!
Tip for healthy looking nails is eat food with the right vitamins & moisturize your cuticles!
My favorite tip to keep healthy nails is moisturizing hands well. You will never have dry cuticles even if you use a simple moisturizer/hand cream/body lotion many times a day!
To maintain healthy nails, I keep mine no longer than the end of my fingertip to minimize the chance that I’ll catch them on something and break them off. I also use a glass file, minimize prolonged exposure to water (especially if they’re bare), take biotin supplements, and drink a lot of water. Also, I think using high quality (doesn’t necessarily mean expensive), B3F polishes and base/top coats helps a lot.
My favorite tip for healthy nails is to moisturize your cuticles. And I find the polish chips less quickly if I use a slightly abrasive file to just buff the nails before painting them. Thanks for the contest!
I moisturize my hands and use Burt’s Bees Lemon Butter Cuticle cream most nights before bed!
I like to keep my nails rather short, and buff them between polishings.
I basically do my own nails every week, if not more than once a week… That way they always look smart! 😉
The most important things for nail health for me are some sort of moisturizer (I always forget this!), a good nail file (mine is glass), and a nail strengthener.
Don’t bit your nails and always moisturize your hands.
OMG vegan? :]
I must use a base coat!!
My favorite tip for having healthy nails its to NOT bite them.. and always wear gloves when it comes to washing dishes and cleaning your restrooms.. thank you for the Giveaway!.. :0)
My all-time favorite way to keep nails looking great is to use Burt’s Bees lemon butter cuticle creme…does wonders in moisturizing and it smells great!
To maintain healthy nails I use a Nail Therapy, Cuticle Oil, and of course a base and top coat when polishing, all from a great little brand I love :). I also swear by NOT cutting or removing cuticles. This prevents bad bacterias from getting under your nail and into the creases that can cause infections and inflammations. If you have unruly cuticles I suggest using a cuticle oil and an orange-wood or cuticle suppressing stick to simply push the cuticle further into the creases of your nail 😀
Moisturize all the time! Especially after handling water.
Keep your nails short (ish) so they won’t break off.
My tip on maintaining healthy nails is to really wash my hands & nails, then apply a base coat to protect my nails thoroughly.
My tip for good finger tips is once every two week at home manicure
And I always wear a good nail strengthiner and push back my cuticals not cut them

My number one tip for healthy nails is a healthy diet! Gotta start with good materials to help nails grow strong and healthy.
definitely using a good base coat & moisturizing my cuticles
I use aquaphor on my cuticles!
my tip is too not pick or bite them! carry around a nail file, trust me, it helps:)
I like to use a nail care pen
For keeping my nails healthy, I swear by a variety of “lengthener/strengtheners”. My favorite is Butter London’s Horse Power Nail Fertilizer. I swear in a week it made a difference, just applying it under a base coat and then polishing as normal. I could see nail growth AND my nails were getting quite strong.
I also make sure I have clippers and a crystal file everywhere I go so I’m not tempted to fuss at a chip in my nail. And I MUST have at least a clear coat on. I was thrilled when they told me I could have polish on during my surgery! Stress is the worst thing that can happen to my nails LOL.
Thanks for the giveaway :)))
These colors look so vibrant. I just fell into the nail polish pool after climbing out of the Mac one…my poor wallet
Making sure to keep your cuticles trimmed and well moisturized! I think healthy cuticles = healthier nails!
Another comment because I didn’t see we had to write down the nail tip. Mine is using Berty’s cuticle cream. I use to hate my nails until it became part of my routine.
I am also a believer that nails shouldn’t be too long. Mine stay pretty short
Got to have the cuticles trimmed and maintained. Smooth looking cuticles is awesome! 🙂
Use good quality lotion regularly! Your nails will shine.
MOISTURIZE. There is nothing worse than dry, cracked cuticles. Especially in the winter time.
Cuticle remover is a must for me
If you want to have healthy nails, I recommend vegetables and lots of milk!! And try not to get upset all the time lika I do!! haha
love to win
My tip is to avoid biting your nails and picking off nail polish.
I don’t do anything in particular to maintain healthy nails lol. I just cut them and paint them once a week 🙂
Im such a polish addict! just snagged my first Zoya shades with one of their promo codes, looks like I’m gonna need a Helmer to sort them all soon! I’d love to try Color Club, Ive never seen them in stores.
thanks so much for all your blogging, this site is a great resource when trying to spend wisely on all the pretty sparklies!
haha, I missed the instructions! my nails get the star treatment, a day (or just overnight when I’m impatient) to rest between coats, I sleep in gloves with lotion and cuticle cream. moisturizer and a good strengthening base coat are essential!
I go easy and give my nails a break every other week.
i use nail strengthener! i have this blue gel-based one from sally hansen that i loooove C:
Moisturize! I like to use my Burt’s Bees Lemon Butter Cuticle Cream or just regular lotion. It keeps my hands and cuticles moisturized and makes my hands looks fresh
Definitely cuticle oil for my dry skin!
using a good base a top coat 🙂
mainly protecting my hands when I wash dishes etc. Thanks!
I moisturize several times a day!
To keep my nail polish lasting longer I’ve learned to paint the tip and a bit of the underside of my nail with the polish and a top coat. It’s called “wrapping your tips” and works wonders!
Thanks for the awesome giveaway!!! 🙂
I would like to try all those colors they look good.
Keep your hands out of your mouth. I used to chronically bite my nails and they looks awful!
Always use a base coat, don’t pull on your cuticles, and extra points for using cuticle oil! 🙂
For healthy nails, I always use a base coat. Nothing is grosser than getting them stained by a dark nail polish!
I give them breaks from nail polish and let them breath! After all, the nail is just an extension of the skin…
always file using a crystal filer! and not going back in forth but with a single direction motion — itll keep them stronger and less prone to breakage 🙂
I maintain healthy nails by moisturizing my cuticles
Moisturize!
Use gloves when cleaning! And moisturize constantly.
looking forward to this giveaway!! i would love to add to my nail polish collection!!!
I like to keep a healthy diet and keep my nails well moisturized!
my tip for healthy nails in wearing gloves while doing dishes
My tip for healthy nails is to skip the soaking step in your manicure, if there is one. The part where you soak your fingers in warm water causes the nail to absorb water and expand or become weak. Then they get filed and it increases the damage. File only in one direction, it really makes a difference.
Moisturize cuticles, drink lots of water, and take a multivitamin! Works for me. 🙂
keeping hands moisturized i guess. it’s hard since i’m always doing things with my hands. luckily my nails grow rapidly and i’m not a biter so i always have long nails.
Wear Gloves!
(I have rubber gloves with cotton on the inside that I wear after putting on cuticle/hand cream – amazing!)
Never trim your cuticles! At first it seems ok, but doing this for a long time may cause a lot of problems.
Healthy nails – I take a multivitamin, moisturize and always use a basecoat.
My tip for maintaining healthy looking nail is to keep them polished and shiny!!
I always use a base and top coat and keep my nails short so they don’t break. 🙂
For healthy nails
i appply a green tea treatment and vitamin E oil
I’m so excited to see these!!!
My tip is to drink plenty of water to keep nails nourshed.
This will just add to my addiction 🙂
Moisturizing your cuticles help them grow. Also, eating gelatin at least once a week helps them grow, along with your hair 😀
don’t bite your nails and don’t pick things with your nails! easier said than done..hahah
I have very brittle nails. I must use a high quality base-coat if I want them to grow out to any length at all.
My favorite tip for keeping healthy nails is keeping them moisturized. Another tip is keeping them polished. Thanks for another great giveaway!
Olive oil works great as cuticle oil, and the price can’t be beat!
My favorite tip for maintaining healthy nails has to be the Nailtiques Protein 2. I got my first bottle from Beautyfix.com (thanks Christine for telling us about Beautyfix.)But this stuff really helps to prevent peeling.
My favorite tip for my nails is NOT BITING THEM! Seriously that’s my own personal tip that when I actually follow it does wonders!
I have my husband do the dishes 😉
I always put chapstick on my nail before I shower to protect them from the water, as funny as it sounds.
I would love to try these polishes, I like that they are free of all the bad things.
I like to make sure that I push my cuticles back when I get our of the bath or shower, while they are soft to help keep them from tearing
Moisturizing, especially with almond oil, is what keeps my nails good. But mostly, I just let them grow.
I always make sure to put a base coat on before applying my nail polish because otherwise when I come to remove it, my nails get weaker. I also use a cuticle oil pen around each of my nails. 🙂
Use branded base coat and top coat for lost lasting nail polish rather than choosing cheap ones that would only damage your nails. also drink Biotin for healthy nails!
soak in olive oil once a week 🙂
Awesome!
got too excited… my tip would be to keep them moisturized, and to not buff constantly since that makes nails brittle (atleast for me it does!)
I try to always use a base coat when painting my nails and when it comes to my cuticles I try to keep them as moisturized as i can with hand and nail lotions and a good cuticle oil! I often cut and file my nails to keep them looking even and clean!
Always use a base coat and use cuticle oil before going to bed at night.
I make use to use a base coat every time i paint my nails
To have healthy nails, i would say apply top and base coat so that it wont stain nails.
thanks for the giveaway!
I use Essie’s moisturizing mask and strenghthening treatment before putting on nailpolish, and use a non-acetone nailpolish remover.
I have noticed a big improvement in my nails overall since I started using a glass file instead of my old diamond file. There has to be a connection.
I think cuticle oil is pretty important, and I tend to always use a strengthening base coat.
Letting your nails rest between weeks of wearing polish! Revlon’s Trauma Relief polish also works wonders.
drinking a lot of water, using nail scrub and cuticule balm.
please enter me!
i use a moisturized cuticle cream every day!
moisturize hands
My most favorite tip but the hardest for me to follow is to stop biting your nails.
Use a glass nail file & only file in one direction.
Moisturize your cuticles
Always, always, always use cuticle oil/butter/lotion as well as a base coat. Not only does it protect the nails, but also makes them healthier and longer.
Moisturize and keeping my nails short and clean (:
Wonder what the colors will actually look like 🙂
My favorite tip for maintaining healthy nails is to rub a cuticle oil into your cuticles and to use a strengthening basecoat.
My tips for maintaining healthy nails starts with taking care of my cuticles. I use cuticle and hand cream every night before bed and it seems to work for me
I like to always buff my nails to an even smoothness before I apply any polish. I find that this method is great for people whose nails are not as smooth or tends to grow with little ridges on them, and it also makes the nail polish application process much smoother and even.
Keep them groomed – cut, filed, de-cuticled + a good base coat before color 🙂
I just make sure to not bite my nails
tip for healthy nails is hydration both internally and externally. drink lots of water and moisturize to keep them strong. almond oil is awesome for cuticles. I also take multivitamins.
I use Cetaphil moisturizing cream on my hands and nails. It helps keep my cuticles soft.
RUB VASELINE INTO YOUR CUTICLES BEFORE GOING TO SLEEP. LEAVES THE SOFT AND STRONG
Don’t get acrylic nails!
