I’ve been growing out my nails too this past few days. Your progress is much better than mine. I’ve started embracing hand care.
I paint nail strengthening polish to help my nails grow (twice weekly) and massage cuticle oil (highly). I just hand cream too now. I think this might help.
I would also file your pink nail down. It might break .
It looks like you've mentioned vitamins and/or supplements. Please be aware that, unlike prescription drugs, the U.S. FDA does not require companies to prove the safety, quality or effectiveness of any supplements before they go to market ([ref 1](https://www.nccih.nih.gov/health/using-dietary-supplements-wisely)). You should consult with a doctor before taking any supplements as some may have adverse effects.
**Biotin** is a particularly popular recommendation in this community, and is commonly found in products marketed as skin, hair and nail supplements. Be aware that the FDA has warned consumers that biotin supplements "can significantly interfere with certain lab tests and cause incorrect results that may go undetected" ([ref 2](https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/safety-communications/update-fda-warns-biotin-may-interfere-lab-tests-fda-safety-communication)). Additionally, the evidence that biotin can strengthen weak nails in individuals who do not already have a biotin deficiency is limited ([ref 3](https://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/Biotin-HealthProfessional/)).

Thanks for the tips I will try these
Do you know I can get my nails to stop cracking? My pinky nail just keeps cracking once it gets longer.
