It’s probably not the collagen making a difference, unless it’s vegan collagen which is pre-collagenous peptides collagen molecules that you ingest in their whole form are too large for your body to use in the way that it uses the collagen it makes, cuticle oil helps mitigate and when I eat really high fiber and protein it helps but it’s really just dehydration from all the soap. I love healthcare jobs 🙃

I know 😭 it’s a bit of a necessary evil rn. I used to just wear my natural nails with a clear coat or the occasional regular polish but then the constant hand washing of the pandemic dried me out so bad I had to keep them short because they flake and break and are so thin now. The gel at least keeps them covered enough for long enough that I can just go about my life but alas
