Ellen’s advice
How to choose
Cutting your nails seems simple, but with the right technique and a good nipper you prevent splitting nails and ingrown toenails. The Abstract professional nail nipper will last you for years if you look after it.
Cut straight across or slightly curved to follow the shape of your fingertip or toe, and never cut too deep at the sides, especially on toenails. After a shower your nails are softer and you get a cleaner cut.
Smooth the edges afterwards with a nail file. Thick or discoloured toenails? Take the free foot analysis.

Who helps you?
I'm Ellen, the Ellen behind LLN.beauty (say it as Ellen beauty). Beauty therapist since 2003, with my online beauty store since 2008. In 2019 I trained in orthomolecular therapy at KPNI, to tackle skin problems from the inside as well.
For years I treated clients in my salon. I stopped, because a treatment only works for a short while. Lasting results come from the basics you do yourself at home. That's why I now help you with a routine you'll actually stick to.
