Nothing too complicated here- it's an aging thing. Everyone will experience it at some point. My nails are more ridged now at age 69 than even five years ago. I started using a great nail cream a few weeks ago to moisturize and strengthen my nails. What a difference!

Oh seriously, you’re not going to tell us the name of the nail cream? LOL. Please and thank you. I always had super strong nails but started having problems after using gel polish.

Haha sorry about that. It's called Hard as Hoof. I had googled to find the best nail strengthening product. Buy on Amazon. I also use the Sally Hansen Moisture Rehab and OPIs Nail Envy. But I think the cream is the thing that's made the big difference. I had dry brittle nails before. In October I got a gel manicure for a trip we were taking. On the flight back I peeled it off. Oh gosh my nails were horrible after that. I essentially peeled off the top layer. So I immediately went into rehab mode.

@fairydogmother Gorgeous nails! And hands! What hand cream do you use?
Going to buy the nail products you use.
I also have one thumb (left) with ridges, I used to have multiple nails with ridges and oils/hand creams removed the other ones, but can't clear up the left tumb!

My nails are now long and don't break, but what's up with the VERTICAL ridges?
I looked online and it says signs of "aging" or iron deficiency.
Really?
Anyone have experience with this .. and how to get rid of the ridges?
@RinaRina I mentioned aging and sun damage, but forgot to say that if you wear nail polish, removing it with acetone will really take dry a toll on your nails. It's harsh and also dries them out. Try non-acetone removers.

In fact, I just asked my doctor about the brownish color to my nails and he said I had no liver problems and the rest of my stats are good. He had no reason why the brown color. I have been placing my nails in Hydrogen Peroxide to help whiten, it has helped some.
@tampalady Have you tried lemon juice instead of hydrogen peroxide...more natural?

@SilleeMee When drying my hands, if cuticles need pushing back, I use the corner of the towel while nails are still damp.....and lotion is at every sink. Healthy cuticles=healthy nails.

"and lotion is at every sink."
Good idea!
