Moisturize Regularly<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"4512\" data-end=\"4623\">Apply moisturizer to hands and feet. Focus especially on dry areas. Cuticle oil can also support soft cuticles.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"4625\" data-end=\"4648\">Useful options include:<\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"4650\" data-end=\"4719\">\n<li data-section-id=\"1d3jhn2\" data-start=\"4650\" data-end=\"4664\">Hand creams.<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"1s2ox6n\" data-start=\"4665\" data-end=\"4679\">Foot creams.<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"1k6efy6\" data-start=\"4680\" data-end=\"4695\">Cuticle oils.<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"1bnfv1u\" data-start=\"4696\" data-end=\"4719\">Moisturizing lotions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 data-section-id=\"1ms7ylx\" data-start=\"4721\" data-end=\"4753\"><strong>2. Avoid Picking Nail Polish<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"4755\" data-end=\"4864\">Do not peel chipped polish manually. Picking can damage the nail surface. Use proper removal methods instead.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"4866\" data-end=\"4911\">This is especially important with gel polish.<\/p>\n<h3 data-section-id=\"jfgmk8\" data-start=\"4913\" data-end=\"4938\"><strong>3. Protect Your Nails<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"4940\" data-end=\"5039\">Avoid using nails as tools. Do not apply excessive pressure. Wear gloves during household cleaning.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"5041\" data-end=\"5085\">This can reduce contact with harsh products.<\/p>\n<h3 data-section-id=\"1gnjir8\" data-start=\"5087\" data-end=\"5117\"><strong>4. Keep Feet Clean and Dry<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"5119\" data-end=\"5232\">Clean feet regularly after outdoor activities. Dry them thoroughly after bathing.

Avoid Aggressive Cuticle Cutting<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"5319\" data-end=\"5436\">Cuticles provide a protective barrier. Aggressive cutting can cause irritation. It may also increase infection risks.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"5438\" data-end=\"5482\">Gentle cuticle care is generally preferable.<\/p>\n<h3 data-section-id=\"w417wl\" data-start=\"5484\" data-end=\"5516\"><strong>6.
