Aging can be hard. But there are things you can do to push it back. My finger/toenails also started just coming apart at the tips. AI suggested adding lotion to the area. Seems to be working great. You really also have to stay strong. Lift weights. Walk daily. Squats. The mind does seem to fade away. Working on something new can help. Play the piano. Even if you have no such skill, work on learning one song. 73M.

@cstrutt52 there are oils/products that can be applied to the nails just like polish . Solar oil is one. I've used a variety, applying every night while I read in bed. Hoof and Mane may be another product. It is a white jar with a picture of a horse. It is like a thick, almost waxy product. I'll usually apply that when I am going to drive for 20 minutes or so. I keep it in my car. Slather it across my nails. 20 minutes later, rub it in and all over hands. The nails lose moisture as we age just like the skin.

The one I can't stand is that my hair has gotten so soft. I have thick great hair but because of its softness it doesn't have the body or hold its shape.
