Why do fingernails and toenails look dirty (iRay)?

Hey guys,
In working with my characters, I have noticed the fingernails and toenails are consistently darker in tone than the skin, making them look somewhat dirty. I know I can manually modify the textures in photoshop if needed, but I was curious if maybe I am just doing something wrong here. All my lighting comes from emmisive source and rendered in iRay.
Thanks.

It's not the textures...so no need to modify them. It's the settings...you'll have to play around with the surface settings to get something you like....
Here's a possible starting point for the nail settings...
