How to get white tips of nail?

[tinkerbell23]

Sometimes the tips of my nails are brilliant white!!

Then other days they are see through with a little bit white- dosent look that nice when just clear varnished?

A white nail pencil underneath dosent really help an i dont want to paint white tips on (cant for work anyhow)

How can i make them alwys white?

I think its mabye because i am an "ex-nailbiter" and its mabye damage growing out xxx

paint on tips areeasy if you get a pack of the little paper guides the pencils work if you dampen the end first

You can't do that for work though, rowan?

Yeah box- im still needing tips that are work friendly! I read lemon juice...x

Do you use Tippex at work ?

I used a white watercolour artists coloured pencil dampened it seemed to stay longer than the proper nail ones Caran D'ache aquarelle

Clean the fridge with some bicarbonate of soda solution and your nail ends will be really white, honestly.

I wet the pencil and it works muuuuch better! Will try lemon next xx
