When Anne Jensen developed the Glass Nail File and Glass Cuticle Pusher and traveled to trade fairs to show it off, it was clear that the personal care tool industry had stood still for decades. The glass nail file had the advantage of being disinfectable and can therefore be used by even the most vulnerable groups. At the same time, it files the nails in a soft stroke, which means it files both under and over the nail without splitting the nail tip. Keeping the nail tip intact makes the nails stronger, avoiding split and frayed nails.
