No idea,infoman I ve never thought about it nails are just nails I can’t say I ve noticed a glaze unless I put nail varnish on which I never do

I only have this visible if I buff.

Not intending to confuse,nothing to do with apply anything to the nails.Its the natural glaze on our toe nails and finger nails.

Are you talking about nail polish?
I don’t use it, but I admire it on others, if subtle and neatly maintained. I can’t bear multi-coloured nails or those with extra glitter.

No idea.
Maybe it's protection, to stop them going brittle or drying out?
I sort of understand the sheen you mean, I've just tilted mine towards the light to see it.

On the nails, that is.

Do you mean 'growth' as in the slight webbing between our fingers and toes?

Can you explain further?

What’s a glaze on fingers and toes ? Did you mean glaze or is it a misprint ?

Not sure what you mean.
Please come back Infoman

Personally, I don't have a glaze on my fingers or toes. Presumably you mean nails. I only achieve a glaze if I use a buffer or clear nail polish. What a random question!

Does it serve any purpose?
