Ensuring you have healthy nails at all times you could follow some simple tips such as:-
Always hydrate your nails with a good cuticle oil every evening before retiring.
Use rubber gloves when washing dishes or doing housework, household cleaners contain chemicals that are detrimental to your nails.
Push back your cuticles gently with an orange stick (which can be bought cheaply from most pharmacies), cutting is not necessary as cuticles are after all there to protect your nails.
File your nails in one direction only, sawing them back and forth will only make them brittle and open to splitting. Do ensure you keep your hands well moisturised with handcream
A clear nail polish will also enhance your nails and protect them in between manicures.
Always use an acetone free nail polish remover, it is less harsh on your nails.
