Nail buffers

Nail buffers are used on bare fingernails, bare toenails, and varnished nails. These tools usually come in the form of a rectangular block or a two-sided board, with a different strength of buffer on each of the block's or board's sides. The buffing material can be fiber glass, rubber, fine-grit sandpaper, chamois, or even leather.

Here's the origin of that pink Blow that appears when you buff your nails: buffing removes the top layers of the nail plate, which in turn makes the nail more translucent. You also generate heat by way of friction. This heat encourages blood to fl ow to the nail bed's surface. The newly thinned nail plate makes it easier to see the blood below.

A buffer is not an essential piece of nail-care equipment. If you decide you can't possibly live without a buffer, go and buy one - I don't recommend using it on bare fingernails, where it can cause thinning of the nail plate, Buffers are best used on bare toenails (which are thicker than fingernails) or to give a shiny finish between manicures to polished fingernails and toenails.
