My Nails Always Chip, Help!

Have you tried a base coat with fiberglass in it? 

@Nicole M. What do you mean by wrapping your tips? I have such a bad problem with my nails chipping. I figured that it was because my nails are brittle. I'll have to try a base coat and see if that helps.

I agree with Nicole M. I used to have this problem and working in the medical field, I am constantly washing my hands--big issue. I have since changed my polish regimen. I now use Sally Hansen's Base Coat + two coats of polish + Sally Hansen's Anti-Chip Top coat. I was using Seche Vite but found that it hardened my polish so much that it made them pop off whole (like a fake nail), so I stopped using it.

Do you wear base coat? There are different kinds of base coats you can use to prevent chipping. Also, I would try a different top coat- namely Seche Vite or Sally Hansen Mega Shine. I wear those tcs and my nails stay nice forever!! Also- you are wrapping your tips, right? Because if you're not, that alone will make a HUGE difference. Good luck! :)

It upsets me because I spend $6.00 - $8.00 per nail polish and at the longest it only seems to last for 2 days before chipping occurs. What can I do to stop this? I tried a Salley Hansen top coat but it just seemed to make the chipping worse!
