Give the oils a few minutes to soak in. Wipe off any excess  oils instead of using oil stripping soaps. Ideally, sleep in moisturizing gloves as well to protect your hands and nails while you sleep. I&#39;ve had brittle nails that bend, break, and tear for years. This process has helped faster than anything else.
