I use it side to side. This is designed to remove 'ridges' which generally run the length of your nails. I go back and forth side to side and move up to the tip in the same motion. hope that helps.

I use to ridge removing side in short "bouncing" strokes. For the buffing side, I start with similar strokes, then finish with quick back and forth movement.

Use a buffer without the super grainy stuff like a regular harsh emery board. This one is the best yet, it gets the snags with one side and the other is the perfect texture to file but not damage. Work from the outside corners in, not seesae. Then meet in the middle. On top of the nail, work from top to bottom.
I got this tip from my nail pro and my nails are growing out strong and healthy for ONCE! yeah!
The Sephora 4 way cube files are great as well, just use #1 for rips only and then start with step 2, skip side 1, too grainy.

I go side to side across the nail in a rounded motion, angling in with the smaller ends of the buffer near the skin.
