For Younger Looking Hands
I’ve given up nipping my "cuticles." After watching the videos from a natural nail manicurist, I’ve learned that what we call "cuticle" is actually living tissue. To improve this area, I started dabbing a touch of Kur Cuticle Oil the skin around my nails, and underneath after every hand washing. Kur Cuticle Oil is ideal, because it it light, nourishing, and effective—and it doesn’t have an overpowering scent. Then I rub on a small dab of Nécessaire hand cream, and the skin around my nails has improved significantly. A couple of times a week I push back the proximal skin fold (what many mistake for the cuticle), and then I lightly remove the cuticle, a thin layer that grows with the nail. At night, I use a rich cuticle and nail cream. It seems like a lot of work, but it’s easy to get in the habit if you keep cuticle oil at the sink and on your desk. I’m in my 60s, and my hands look 10 years younger. I wish I’d had the forethought to take before and after photos.
