How should tweezers be used in nail care?

The use of tweezers in nail care is specifically designed for tasks that require precision and control. They are particularly effective for handling small items such as rhinestones, nail art gems, and other decorative elements that may be used in manicures or nail enhancements. This precision helps ensure that these small components are placed accurately and securely without damaging the surrounding nail or skin.

The other options involve techniques that are better suited to different tools or methods. For instance, applying nail polish typically involves a brush for even and smooth coverage over the nail surface. Filing nails is generally done with a nail file or buffer, which is specifically designed to shape and smooth the edges of the nails. Pushing back cuticles is normally performed with a cuticle pusher or stick, which is designed to gently and effectively slide back the cuticle without causing harm to the nail bed or surrounding tissue. Using tweezers for these tasks would not provide the desired results and could potentially lead to injury or improper application.
