Afternoon beauty fix: The easiest way to stop biting your nails

How can I stop biting my nails? It’s a terrible habit, but I can’t seem to kick it.
You’re in luck because our best advice is something you’ll want to hear: get a weekly manicure. Go for nail art, Shellac, or a shade you totally love and would hate to destroy. If you take Estée Lauder Pure Color Nail Lacquer in “Metallic Sage” ($25, at Holt Renfrew and select Bay stores) to your manicurist, we can safely assume that you’ll halt your irksome habit—its gold-green hue will remind you pleasantly of the money you spend to maintain nice nails, and it’s a lovely shade for fall.
