just because you do, doesn't mean you should.
Maybe strengtheners may help,thanks.
Main thing is to keep them filed with smooth edges (get a 4 way buffer thingy from Boots) and moisturise them with a decent cream eg E45 or even simply a little lip balm after you wash your hands. This will prevent them drying out and cracking.
I also "take care" of them - regular filing, make sure no "splinters" or dings can develop into splits
I cant do callouses, they're hard to develop and just dont sound or feel the same.

Where do you get Barielle from? I’ve tried my local Boots and Superdrug but no luck.
Or try a nail salon ,
Until a couple of years ago, I was doing a lot of acoustic gigs, which needed something way beyond my natural nails and the ability to apply something nearly as tough as fibre glass whenever needed has been brilliant for me. Even now I still keep my nails coated so that I can get the most out of my guitars.
I did play with mostly calloused pads for about 25 years before that, but the difference in attack and output from acrylics has had me sold ever since.
