Wearing nail polish for weeks
Wearing the same nail polish for months is not something that should be encouraged. The maximum time you should wear a nail should be 2 weeks.
Not applying lotion
You don’t want your nails looking cracked and dry when you go out. To deal with this never forget to apply lotion to your nails to make it moist.
Using your nails as tools
