Using a good nail oil and a nail repair helped me. I used CND Solar oil and massaged it into my nail and cuticle at least twice a day for around a week and then used OPI Nail Envy for 2 weeks. You can still massage the cuticle with the oil when you go back to gel polishes.

It might be the nail envy I’m thinking of. I’ve got some solar oil so I’ll use that too. What was a Dior thing I had in mind too?

I stopped getting shellac on my nails in May due to going backbacking. I've just used olive oil ( your normal cooking stuff) on them since and my natural nails are looking great. I may never shellac them again.
