Makartt Nail File - 100/180 Grit Emery Boards for Nails, Professional Nail Files, 10pcs Double Sides Black Coarse Fingernail Filer for Acrylic and Extension Gel Removal Manicure Kit Salon Home Use

These are the best files I've ever used. They are quick and easy to use and last a long time.

I got the 180/240 grit for natural nails. After reading some of the latest reviews, I was worried that these files would be flimsy, or not glued together properly. Mine arrived in great shape, they are very well made, and the grit on them is just what I wanted. The grit seems like its is well adhered to the board, little pieces of sand or whatever don't come off when you file. These will last for a long time. It's a good rigid file with a dense cushion foam core, all the layers seem well laminated. The edges of the files are cleanly cut and smooth, there are no splits or frayed edges, so they won't snag on your skin or cuticles. The file is great for gently shaping and eliminating ridges on your nails. I think the 180 grit is the logo side and the 240 grit is the blank side. I feel like the 180 side would be coarse enough to file down gel polish before soaking for removal. Apparently the file is washable, but I just tap it against my leg to clean dust off it since it's just for my personal use. I like it so much that I'm looking at getting a pack of the "Markartt Fine Nail Buffer File Polishing Natural Nail Cushion Files 400 and 6000 Grit" next so I can buff and polish my nails on days I don't want nail polish. I'm glad I found these. It was a really good value for the money and a very well made product.

I would only recommend this specific grit for false nails (acrylic, gel, fiberglass, etc.) ONLY! Waaaay to harsh for natural nails. I live in an area where the only beauty supply store is Sally's Beauty. I've gone there for years until it dawned on me to check Amazon for emery boards. HALLELUJAH that I did! 🙌🏻 Cannot beat the price and quality of these boards. They are thick enough so Im able to apply pressure and not have the board bend or break. The grit is quality, doesn't feel cheap or shed. Because of the quantity I can finally use a fresh board when needed, instead of using the old one until there's no grit left (to save myself making a trip to Sally's). Which makes shaping and filing by nails so much easier and FASTER. So happy to have found these. Small tip if needed: remeber to prep/buff a brand new emery board! I forgot to prep my new board and boy did I regret it! Sliced my skin real quick. At least the grit is sharp lol. But seriously, don't be like me. Prep your new boards. Happy filing!

Nail files that work better for artificial nails. The files I purchased are 100 Grit on one side and 180 Grit on the other side. 100 Grit is very rough, and these did not work well on my natural nails because they were too rough. However, these would be good for artificial/acrylic nails and toe nails. They also work great as sanding tools. The 180 Grit side is a little bit softer, but still pretty rough. My nails were too thin for these files, but I think these would work well on people who have thicker nails or perhaps on toe nails. You get 10 for $8, so I think it's a good deal. They're not too expensive, so you don't have to feel bad using them freely and throwing them away when they are not usable anymore. However, they're pretty sturdy, and I think they would last you a while. Overall, a good deal on nail files, as long as you use them for their proper use.

This is my Favorite emery board to use on my nails. Does as described.

Have been using these for a while. I use poly gel on my nails so I needed some good files.

These are super strong still using the first one that I opened and it’s still super sharp

Love
