You can also soak your nails in the same mixture for about 10 minutes and wash them with water. The antioxidants and proteins in this herbal mask for brittle nails help the nails grow stronger.
Protein Intake:
Since nails are made up of proteins (keratin), it is natural that you have to keep supplying them with the nutrient for their proper health. Eat protein-rich foods like fish, eggs, cheese, dry fruits, etc. Have eggs regularly for fine nails.
Apple Cider Vinegar:
