To stop chipping, before applying any nail polish wipe your nails down with astringent (yes the face one) to remove the oils from your nails. Next make sure you have a gel based nail polish. Go to a basic hair and nail place, no salons. Ask if the sell gel nail polish in your color and buy that. Ebay sells them too. It prevents your nails from breaking. The chipping is due to oils from your nails. And when they grow you must by all means paint under the growth of your nails to stop them from breaking as well. I hope this tip helps you out.
