I started to polish my nails about 6 weeks ago. When changing polish I’ve noticed my nails getting yellower at the tips. I’ve read that the offending ingredient is nitrocellulose, which my base coat has (OPI natural nail) and probably the other coats as well (Essie, Seche Vite). My color polish is typically a light/natural pink.
So my question is, what if anything un-yellows the nails? Should I leave off the polish for N days? Filing (which I don’t really want to do as my nails are pretty thin already)?
Thanks and happy new year
That’s good to know. I’ve been kind of reluctant to add more stuff so early in a new routine, and I’m on the older side so the “normal” air drying polishes I fooled around with as a teen are just more familiar and comfortable.
