my real nails have grown rather long, but after awile they will start to break. I bought acrylic liquid and powder,is this safe to put on my nails to protect them and keep them from breaking?

Acrylic nails look very cute, but I have also heard that they are not much safe, as they sometimes damage the nail, discoloration gets noticed and even infections are caused!

Interesting content.
Just wanted to share some information that may help busy professionals caught up with work and who have less time to maintain their nails. You can try out gel nails which are now becoming a hot favorite as they are natural looking even without nail tips and the best way for nail enhancement. Also, if you are allergic to those strong smelling chemicals which you can experience with acrylic nails, then you should use gel nails as these are odorless.
However, when you are planning on gel nail application, make sure you approach a nail salon or a nail artist who is well versed with gel nails and is properly trained and mastered in gel applications. This will save you from problems that can arise with improper gel nail applications.
