Buffers
Nail buffers, ranging from 80 to 240 grit, are essential tools for achieving smooth, polished nails. Coarse buffers around 80-100 grit are primarily used for removing ridges and evening out the nail surface, especially on acrylic or artificial nails. Medium grit buffers, such as 150-180, help refine the nail surface, smoothing out imperfections without being too harsh. The finest buffers, typically 240 grit, provide a gentle touch, perfect for prepping natural nails before applying polish or enhancing shine without damaging the nail bed. Using the right grit buffer helps maintain healthy, glossy nails while preventing excessive thinning or roughness.
