I am in my 40's and have had brittle and cracking toenails for years, my fingernails are fine. I always keep the nails trimmed so they do not get long, but when I clip my toenails, they crack and split. Is there any solution I can buy say at Walmart that can put on them to make them stronger and healthier?

Hello mrdos910, I must say you have problem on your hygiene. I think you need to consult to doctors advised first before others.

Have you tried to clip them after soaking in the tub? soaking in the tub will soften them up. My hubby does that otherwise his crack off too.

Yes, I have, they still split either way. My wife helped me solve this problem with a nail hardener serum, I guess its what it is called. I just put it on my two large toes that crack the worse. The downside, they are a little shiny but they do not have any color, thank God, but they have not been as brittle when I clip them. One question though, do you do the one treatment and that is all you need, or how do you use product correctly?
