My nails had become brittle and were splitting. I thought it was because of wearing too much nail polish, but, it turns it was because of the "no name" nail polish removers I had been using (I was buying them because they were cheaper).
They were stripping the moisture from my nails and drying them out COMPLETELY.
I decided to spend the extra R4 on a reputable nail polish remover, i.e Cutex.
I immediately saw a difference in my nails... the first time I used it, my nails already looked healthier and lively.
I have been using it for two weeks, and my nails are definitely stranger. I will be sticking to cutex from here on
