You’ll need: a nail buffer, fingernail glue, a tea bag, a nail clippers, a toothpick, coffee filter material (optional), tweezers (optional), and a file (optional).

How to do it:

Wash your nail with warm water and dry off.
Cut a small piece out of the tea bag. Place it on your nail to see if it’s the right size.
Apply a small amount of glue over the broken nail area. Then, place the tea bag on it. Gently and carefully press it until it dries flat, soaked up by the glue, and is attached.
Remove the excess using some clippers. If you want, apply more glue to your nail and spread it using a toothpick. If there’s glue stuck on your skin, it’ll come off after a hot shower.
Using your buffer or a file, smooth the surface when everything is dry. Note that the tea bag and glue will protect the broken parts. You are now ready to carry on with your regular manicure.
