Why You Should Use a Nail Buffer and How to Buff for Healthier, Shinier Nails

A nail buffer is one of the easiest tools you can add to your at-home manicure routine, and for good reason! It’s designed to smooth ridges on your nails, help tackle problems like flaking or splitting, and help promote healthier-looking nails. If you’ve never used one, you’re missing out on a simple step that can elevate your nail game.

If you’re new to nail buffers or unsure how to get the most out of them, our 3-in-1 Trio Nail Buffer is a game-changer. Designed with three sides, it works in stages to smooth, refine, and add a beautiful natural shine to your nails. 

How to Use a Nail Buffer for Best Results

Using a nail buffer is simple, but to get the most out of it, follow these easy steps:

Start with Side 1 – ‘Buff Ridges’
Begin by using Side 1 to lightly buff your nails. This step will smooth out any ridges and help remove light discolouration on your nail plate, giving you a more even surface.

Move on to Side 2 – ‘Smooth Nail’
Next, use Side 2 to further refine the surface. This step helps achieve a smooth, even finish by gently polishing the nail plate. 

Finish with Side 3 – ‘Miracle Shine’
For the perfect touch, finish with Side 3, which adds a natural, healthy-looking shine. You’ll instantly notice your nails looking glossy without the need for any nail polish.

Top Tips for Buffing Your Nails

While buffing your nails is simple, there are a few tricks that can help you get the best results:

 - Lightly buff the nails from side to side, across the nail. 

 - Be Gentle: Avoid over-buffing your nails. A few light strokes are enough—excessive buffing can damage your nails over time.

 - Use the Trio Buffer correctly: When you first start using our 3-in-1 Trio Nail Buffer, use all three sides. After that, for regular use, just focus on the following:

   Side 1 on new nail growth only.

   Side 2 every 2-3 weeks to maintain smoothness.

   Side 3 as often as needed to maintain that healthy shine.
