Using a nail brush regularly will help.
You can swipe an orange stick with some cotton dipped in bit of hydrogen peroxide under your nails ever 4-5 days and rinse well. Follow up with nail oil.
Some people use those tooth whitening strips or soak their nails in a denture tablet bath.
Beauty supply stores carry specialized nail cleaners for soaking your tips and getting them whiter.
There are also white pencils designed for under the nails. You just run the tip under the nail to "paint" the ends white.

Yellow nails are due to misuse of the nails. To whiten yellow nails, take a small amount of fresh lemon juice. Soak the nails in the lemon juice for several minutes and repeat the procedure a few times a week. Denture tablets and whitening polish may also be used to whiten nails.

Nail polishes that contain formaldehyde tend to yellow nails...so you could get nail polish from the Health Food stores that are formaldehyde free.
There are also nail whitening pencils, mostly used for under the "free edge" area.

After you remove nail polish, you can soak your nails in lemon juice. The citric acid will help remove some of the staining caused by nailpolish.

I've heard that soaking your nails in white vinegar is one way to whiten your nails.
I've also heard that if you have a nail fungus, soaking your nails in Listerine helps clear them up too.

You need to use a base coat before applying nail polish. Also, good eating habits are important.

Squeeze a lemon and rub the lemon (insides) thoroughly on your nude nails. leave the lemon on for five or ten minutes. be sure not to touch your clothing because lemon can bleach some fabrics too.
