you mean a white line on the top? called a french manicure
what you'll need:
Nail file(NOT a metal one), polish,polish remover,base coat & top coat, cuticle cream,cuticle pushers
First remove any old polish, then file your nails(for fingers file from corner to center to prevent splitting, for toes go straight across). Apply the cuticle cream to your cuticles & push back gently with the cuticle pusher(NEVER cut the cuticles). Wash your hands in warm water & dry. Apply your base coat, let dry then apply 1 to 2 coats of polish, let dry, finish with a top coat.
For stronger nails use a strengthening polish (likeSally Hansen's advanced hard as nails) as a base & top coat, you can also use colors with a strengthener in them as well, & there are polish removers with geletin which also strengthen nails.
for a pedicure you'll need just about everything as above, along with a foot bath filled with warm soapy water, a pumis stone,a foot scrub & a moissturizing foot lotion.
Soak your feet in the tub for about a half an hour, scrub them witht he foot scrub & the use the pumic stone, dry your feet & begin filing the nails & then paint

I have gel nails. It doesnt cost alot. i go down to the local beauty school and have a student do them. It takes FOREVER, but an instructor is always there. It costs me about 25 for a new set and 15 for a fill.

Basically get a manicure every week and make you use a good nail hardener treatment....like the they sell at sephora,once you healthy nail,colors and design does not really matter,but if you are going for color use a natural color

there are stickers you can put on to help you make the little white line (aka. a french manicure)...they're a few bucks.
but paint your base a neutral color or a soft pink, slap one of those stickers on and paint a white line.
cover with a clear coat
