The Value Of A Crystal Nail File

By Etta Bowen


All women like their fingernails to look their best and have used emery and metal boards for this purpose for many years. However, more recently a crystal nail file has come onto the market. Many women are discovering the benefits of using such a file. They find that it leaves their nails feeling smooth and looking glossy and healthy. Such a product may require a greater financial outlay initially but its durability and other benefits more than make up for this in the long run.

These files are manufactured from tempered and hardened crystal glass. The best quality ones are very strong and durable. The hardening process they undergo means that have a practically unlimited life span. In event that one does become damaged, it should not be used again as even a small chip reduces the integrity of the product and it is possible that it may break.

As the glass is so hard, etching or sand blasting is required to create the abrasive surface. Nail files are all made with a specific grit size. A higher grit number or concentration of grain particles per square inch means that the effect on the nails is finer. These glass files have an ultra fine grit and this makes them very gentle on nails.

The manufacturing process used to create the abrasive surface also means that it never wears down. Unlike an emery board which wears down quickly, it remains as effective for its whole life span. Such a file can be used on both natural and artificial nails but when filing artificial nails it is recommended that it is dipped in water before use and periodically during use as well.

The reason these files prevent rough edges is that they actually seal the keratin layer together. There is no splitting, chipping or peeling and they nails are much healthier and glossier looking as a result. The grind is still effective, however, despite its gentleness.

One of the advantages of these products is that they are easy to clean. Just running them under water is often enough. If necessary, a brush and some detergent will do the trick. The non-porous nature of the glass means that these files are very hygienic. There is no place for bacteria or fungus to take hold.

Professional beauticians often use these products. They are attracted to them because they are effective, hygienic and easy to clean. They can offer their clients a high quality manicure due to the good grinding performance and know that nails will not be damaged. It is also possible to sterilize files after use with heat or alcohol. This is essential when working with a number of different clients and infections to be passed from one client to another.

When a product like this is cared for correctly, it can last a lifetime. It is easy to care for and although it may cost a little more initially than other boards, it offers many advantages over them and soon makes up for this extra expense. Many attractive designs and colors are available on the market today. One can shop online and easily compare different sizes, colors, designs and prices before making a decision.
