Fix a broken nail

Fix a broken nail

Fix your broken nail with nail glue, a tea bag, a file, small scissors and tweezers.

Step-by-step plan
1. File off the sharp edges of the crack, especially at the top of your nail.
2. Cut a very small piece from a tea bag. It should be big enough to stick to the crack in your nail later.
3. Drip a very small amount of nail glue on the crack.
4. Place the piece of the tea bag on the crack and apply over it apply a little bit of nail glue.
5. Once the nail glue has dried, you can use the file to make sure that the tea bag and the glue overflow into the rest of your nail.
6. After you have painted your nails , you will see almost nothing of your broken nail.

A handy solution if you prefer not to level the rest of your nail with the crack or if you are having a party.
