      Oh I do this a lot! I stopped biting my nails when I got acrylic nails. I got at home kits which are pretty cheap but look great. As for the lip biting, I used lipstick. The taste of lipstick is kinda gross and it stopped me from biting my lips. And these were years long habits I had going on.

Some suggestions include using chewing gum or something for your hands to fidget with, applying chapstick to help with lip biting, and trying out chewlery, which is jewelry made to be chewed. There are also nail polishes that taste bad specifically made to deter nail biting. If your school doesn't allow fidget toys, you could try getting a nail design you really like and use that as motivation to avoid ruining the polish and picking/biting.
