Can anyone shed some light on why my nails seem to peel when I use my nail polish remover? It's a non-acetone one, with "conditioner".

I don't use hand cream even when I don't have polish on, and this has been happening for quite a while, even before I was pregnant (I thought maybe that was a factor). Am I deficient in something? I hope no one says calcium, because I think I am developing calcium spots in my fingers, so am afraid to up my calcium intake. Is it as simple as using a hand cream (for my nails)? If yes, which cream is the best to use?

Anyway, suggestions most welcome. Thank you.
