During this past week, I have been doing alot of house cleaning, and yard work, now my nails are stained. They look horrible, I don't want to paint over them in case that would seal the stain in or cut them off. So far I have tried plain soap and water with a nail brush, lemon juice and water soak..... If any one has any ideas or knows something that will work, please let me know.

My first recommendation is to wear gloves!! You can try a nail whitener that Sally Beauty Supply carries. Denture tablets also work. Second step is to use a 3 or 4 way nail buffer and "gently" buff away the yellow or stained surface. Be careful when doing this because you can also thin your nails. Also make sure to use a non-yellowing base-coat prior to nail polish. Finish off with a good top coat such as Seche Vite. Try to stay away from nail products that contain Tolulene and Formaldehyde which will also stain and dehydrate your nails and cause chipping and peeling. Pick up cuticle oil and put a dab on your nails each night before bed. This helps keep your nails moisturized and will prevent breakage.

This will work, bear with me, cause I cant remember what its called. You can get it by all the nail stuff at Target/Walmart....it a rectangular Emory board with 2 different sides to it. Its like a foam scratcher thing. You scrape the nail surface to reveal smoother nail underneath. I'm sorry, I don't know what its called.
