Answer 1

Soak your nails in a denture cleaning tablet dissolved in water.

Swipe your nails w/ a cotton ball saturated w/ hydrogen peroxide. Wait 1-2 minutes before rinsing.

Apply nail whitener strips to your nails. Follow package directions.

Avoid nail polish until the discoloration grows out. File & buff your nails instead. Here's how: http://www.ehow.com/how_2564_give-yourself-facial.html

Apply nail oil, Vaseline or vitamin E to your nails each night to prevent peeling. Plain Chapstick works too & can be used to protect your nails from water.
