Papery nails

I have decided to give my nails a break from shellac type gels. I've bought some vitamins but think I need either an oil or a strengthener to put on my extremely damaged nails.

They are thin like paper and break horizontally. Is there anything you have used that did make a difference?

Thanks in advance

I've been using a Sally Hansen nail oil. I use it right before going to sleep every night and have definitely noticed a difference. Usually in the winter my nails break a lot but they are the longest they have ever been now.

Thanks for that @jpbee . I'll give that one a try.

Open to other ideas, too Thanks

A good strong tonic from the chemist or health food store. Take it for three months & nails will improve

I’ve had great results using Hard As Hoof nail strengthening cream every night.
Bought it from Amazon.
