Bye Bye Emery: Glass Nail Files Are The Way To Go

Published

What is it with filing your nails that always makes the process so utterly disappointing? Does it really have to be so torturous? 

Turns out, it doesn’t. A few months ago, I purchased a glass nail file off Amazon. Classy, right? Right, but I really was curious whether it’d even work. And oh, it worked alright. It worked absolute wonders. I’ve never before in my life had a more fulfilling nail filing experience. My nails have never felt so healthy and smooth.

After making this astonishing glass nail file discovery, I’ve come to the conclusion that we’ve all been seriously punk’d. I don’t know when the emery board industry started, but somewhere along the line we started using sandpaper on a stick to pulverize our nails into sheer annihilation. Doubtless some marketing professional branded it “filing our nails.” But at what cost? The utter existence of our nails? Thanks, but no thanks. It is time for someone to stand up to Big Emery. Trust me, once you go glass, you’ll never go back.

Glass nail files are designed with less grit, making them more gentle against your nail. You will, avoid all the damage that emery boards can cause and finally get silky smooth nails. The glass doesn’t wear and tear like an emery board, and it is much easier to wash and sanitize, limiting the spread of any nail fungal diseases and, better yet, COVID-19. So, it only makes sense for us all to be using them, especially nail salons (*cough cough*).

The glass nail file I got on Amazon cost a mere $7, so there is absolutely no excuse, ladies. It is high time to live like a queen, and nothing says “queen” more than a glass nail file in a case:
