This premium black sapphire nail file combines traditional craftsmanship, state-of-the-art manufacturing techniques, and the finest materials to meet the highest personal care standards. The filing surface has both a coarse and a fine side for shortening and smoothing nails, while the tip is used for cleaning. The handle’s size and shape are specially designed for men’s hands. Its elaborate matte black PVD coating further enhances scratch resistance and durability. Nail files are among the most important manicure tools. Regular filing helps maintain the length and shape of your nails. Place the file directly against the nail and move it in one direction only. The coarse side cuts and shapes the nail, while the fine side smooths its edges and corners. Applying a nail care oil or pen after use helps prevent brittle nails from breaking. Sapphire files are essentially worry-free manicure tools. If a high-quality file is used only to file nails, it will last for many years. With frequent use, nail dust (keratin) can clog the surface, making the file less effective. Nail files are easy to clean by hand under running water (add a mild cleaning agent if needed). Be sure to dry the file thoroughly with a lint-free towel or even a hair dryer. After that, your nail file will be as good as new.
