Cracked nail care! I have a question about how to use olive oil.

I am worried because my fingernails keep tearing and getting thin.

I was looking for natural skincare methods and heard that olive oil is good, so I'm going to give it a try.

I've heard that using extra virgin oil is best. Would it be enough if I just put the oil in a bowl and soaked my nails in it?

Also, I am wondering if I need to rinse it off with water after about 20 minutes, or if just wiping it with a towel is sufficient.

Please share any precautions you have for after the treatment!
