The cuticle is such a delicate and thin skin located at the base of the nails on the arms and legs. The condition and health of the nail itself and the general appearance of a person directly depend on the condition of the cuticle.
The leathery cuticle roll, which frames the nail bed, sometimes causes irritation and a desire to get rid of it faster. But to do manicure by circumcision is not always safe, not only in the fashion salon, but also at home, because with the slightest carelessness, you can damage the cuticle, which will ruin your nails.
Inaccurate manicure, vitamin deficiency, the effect of nail polish remover, contact of hands with detergents, sea bathing, long exposure to sunlight are the factors that cause cracking, dehydration, and the appearance of burrs on the skin around the nails.
Systematic care of the cuticles contributes to the rapid growth of nails and gives them a neat and well-groomed appearance. And in order for the hands to look neat and beautiful, it is necessary to use special products, one of which is nail oil and cuticles.
Cuticle oil, depending on the manufacturer, contains the following main components: aloe vera oil, cotton seed, avocado, jojoba oil, almond oil, flavoring, salicylate, ionol or aliphatic hydrocarbons that provide antifungal and antiseptic nail care, lecithin and vitamins A, E, which positively affect nail growth. And also in small quantities essential oils of pine, sandalwood, cedar - for a firming effect; thyme, rosemary, tea tree - for cuticle elasticity. All these components protect the nails from various mechanical damages and the negative effects of the environment, prevent bruising, make the manicure painless, soften the skin, nourish and moisturize the nail plate, give the hands a pleasant aroma, give a light massage effect, help remove the cuticle without damaging the nail plate.
In order for the cuticle oil to work more efficiently, you do not need to dip your hands or feet in water for an hour after applying it. If you need to wash the dishes or do a wet cleaning in the house, you need to put on gloves on your hands, while the oil will moisturize the cuticle and nails even better.
How to apply cuticle oil
Apply the oil with your fingertip carefully and gently. It is necessary to drip two drops of oil on the cuticle of the finger and gently rub it into the skin. You need to rub until the oil is absorbed into the nail and cuticle. This procedure should be done in turn on all fingers and toes.
Cuticle oil should be applied at least once a day, preferably before bedtime. If the nails on the hands or feet are in a state of neglect, they must be lubricated with oil twice a day: in the morning before any work and in the evening immediately before bedtime.
Today, on the shelves of cosmetic stores you can find a considerable variety of means for nourishing and softening the cuticles. If we talk about such a tool as cuticle oil - the reviews are only positive. So, based on the reviews of most female representatives, we can conclude that each woman chooses the best oil for nails and cuticles for herself, based on her own experience. But the fact that, regardless of the manufacturer (and there are a large number of them), cuticle oil acts very effectively on nails, even if they are extended, helps with procedures such as manicures and pedicures, gives neatness and grooming to hands and feet - this is an invariable fact.
