Don’t believe all that stuff about letting your nails ‘breathe’ between manicures or pedicures. Lungs breathe, not nails. Respected manicurist Deborah Lippmann advises that keeping nails polished actually protects against cracks and breaks. Just check in between for any fungal infections, which can start small and grow slowly, but once they take hold are hard to get rid of. If nails show minor yellowing, it’s probably staining from dark polish; use a protective coat, in future.
