Our articles are written to be practical and honest. Illustrations on this site are original drawings, not photos of a real manicure. If an article uses AI assistance in drafting, it is edited and checked by hand before it is published.
We are not doctors or dermatologists. Our content is about style and routine, not medical advice. If a nail or the skin around it is painful, red or swollen, please see a doctor or a qualified nail professional.
