Keep nails from yellowing??

My nails tend to yellow easily and I even tried cutting them and letting them grow all over again but they still yellowed and that prevents me from showing off my natural long bails.

Do you put polish on them? Polish can turn nails yellow.

Cheap polish causes that, at sallys they sell a base coat that prevents yellowing!

If you don't go without polish every once in awhile then they turn yellow, so that is what's causing it. Let your nails breathe. They need oxygen.

Use nailbrite, or warm water with lemon in it, and soak it'll help whiten them, I'm learning this in school now :)

Also using base coat will help prevent staining, you can purchase nail stones which also remove stains when they are wet.

So you always need a layer or two of "base coat" under your color polish. The reason for this is that the base coat adds a protective layer, this way the actual color is never directly on the nail!

Also, a tooth brush, baking soda, peroxide and a good scrub should help.. Or sallys beauty supply sells "bubble white" which works beautifully.

Use a clear base coat each time you put nail polish on and use tree tea oil and massage it into your cuticles and nails.

Maybe cuz you use nailpolish a lot let your nails breath now and then and whenever you use nailpolish ALWAYS use a base coat to protect your natural nails , don't worry the yellowing will go with time...gd luck dear.
