Your nails have been through an emotional journey. Immediately apply cuticle oil—think of it as a therapist for your nail bed. Massage it in for a minute to restore moisture and prevent peeling. Fun fact: The Japanese tradition of manikuri involves daily oil massage to strengthen nails. You’re participating in ancient wellness now.
Wait at least 24 hours before applying any new polish. Give your nails a “breather day” like you would after a big workout. They’ll thank you by not breaking.
