i`ve been thru the same thing...nothing worked on my nails & i tried for many years to have beautiful nails...no matter what product i tried, my nails would split, peel, crack & break!!! so, i`ve gone for the acrylic nails & am completely satisfied, as i now have gorgeous nails!!! i`m not saying that`s your only option, but it is an idea!!!

Alot of times it's due to a vitamin deficiency in your body. Try taking vitamins too. My nails split alot,too. I find it helps to constantly keep something on them. If I don't wear polish,then they dry out and split more. Try Formula 10,or Sally Hansen's Hard as Nails. Sally Hansen comes in colors,but they've got ones specifically formulated to strengthen. I find that the Grow Strong formula works great. Use as directed. Add another coat each day,then after 3 days remove and start over. Like I said,keep something on them. I used to wear acrylics which ruin your nails,and after 2 years of babying them,I've got my own strong nails. Also,if you wear light colors,you won't have to worry about chipping showing up so much.

Look into a treatment called NailTek. It comes in several different formulas for different types of nail problems.
The regimine you would follow will be treatment for 6 months, then switch to the maintenance formula for 6 months, then back to the original treatment for 6 months and on and on...
Rule of thumb is switch treatments every six months like you do with shampoos... they become "tolerant" of the formula after a while and your nails/hair won't respond to treatment anymore and go back to doing the same thing again.
Another thing is apply cuticle oil (cooking oils work too--avoid mineral oil--baby oil) every day to your nails and cuticles and massage it in. This should help. Sorry there isn't a "quick fix" and it does take commitment--watching tv is a good time to do it.

first of all it might not start with what your doing with your nails but what your putting into your body!!try going to a drug store and getting an over the counter pre natal vitamin!!! I know it sounds funny but it helps! It really does and it also helps your hair grow long and strong as well! another thing you might want to try is a pink bottle of sally hansens it works as well!! Hope this helps!!
