What is a common use for a hydrogen peroxide solution in nail care?

Nail polish remover
Nail hardener
Nail bleach
Cuticle softener

The correct answer is: Nail bleach

A hydrogen peroxide solution is commonly used in nail care as a bleaching agent. It can help to lighten the color of nails or remove stains, particularly those caused by nail polish, food, or other substances. This makes it beneficial for individuals who want to achieve a cleaner, brighter appearance for their nails. While hydrogen peroxide can have properties that contribute to nail health, such as its antiseptic qualities, its primary role in nail care is related to bleaching. Other products are specifically formulated for nail polish removal, nail hardening, and cuticle softening, which involve different active ingredients designed for those particular purposes.
