Sephora Glass Nail File — 

Sephora Glass Nail File

I've never really liked using emery boards or metal files to groom and shape my nails, the scraping feeling alone sets my teeth on edge and I  find that they leave kind of a raggedy feeling to the nail as well.  At least that's been my experience until I finally gave in and purchased Sephora's Glass Nail File.

Yes, it's made of glass and it can break if it falls but, it's got the smoothest filing surface imaginable, it actually glides rather than grates againts the nail so It really doesn't cause splits or ragged spots as an emery board can. I find it takes less time to file and shape my nails as it does a more thorough job and finishes off the nail edge very nicely, making it look healthy and groomed.

File is a good size at about four inches long, it has a point tip for getting under the nail if need be. Sephora sells this file for $8.00, got mine on sale for $3.99. I've had mine for about a year and have not purchased another pack of emery boards since so, it just about pays for itself. 

You can also wash this file in mild soap and water, air dry and it's clean and ready use all over again. Try douing that with other files, I think not!

My rating: five stars for its filing and shaping abilities but I must give it an overall of 4 stars because it can break.

They are a bit fragile but I like the results over a metal or emery file; my nails look better since I've been using it. but, I do know what you mean about them breaking.

The glass nail files look so chic but I always tend to break them before I have had them long enough to get my money's worth out of them.
