Editor's Notes

September 30, 2019:

We made a handful of changes to this list for the latest update, including removing the DayBuy Trimmer and Anvava Nail Clipper due to availability issues, as well as taking away the Fox Medical because of repeated complaints that the spring broke quickly. We also supplanted the Premax Optima with the Erbe Inox, a similar implement with more compelling features.

We added the Tweezerman Grip & Snip for those who dislike the anatomy of traditional nippers and scissors, the Andlane Cutter for users looking for a reliable budget selection, and the Opove Remover for anyone who wants a middle-of-the-road option that's of good quality and stylish.

While you can buff away excess dead skin and cuticles with tools like electric nail files, nippers and scissors are still an indispensable implement to have in any manicure kit. Our priorities when ranking this list were durability, solid construction, high-quality materials, items that come with storage cases to protect them from dulling, and products with warranties and money-back guarantees for peace of mind.

They may be small, but these products are very sharp, so handle them with care and keep them well away from children and pets.
