    Dirty nails due to gardening
    I've scrubbed my nails with a nail brush several times and still can't get rid of the black junk around my polished nails. Just had them done and want to have them look good again. I even used gloves! How can I get rid of the crud quickly? Thanks

    You could try either a little bleach or Go-JO or Lava pumice soap.

    You might have to trim them if you can't get them clean no other way.

    You could also soak your nails in warm salt water for about 10 minutes then try scrubbing with a soft nail brush. Salt works wonders in loosening up dirt.
