Refreshing, for your cuticles and nose

When I'm stressed or nervous, I can't help but pick at the little skin around my fingers and from that, my cuticles have been taking quite a beating. So a few months ago, I picked up this product and decided to give it a try.

I rub it onto my cuticles and nails several times a day, once I'm done, I rub the excess into my hands and within a few days, I'm the proud owner of soft, moisturised cuticles. My nails seem to grow a lot faster when using this and it really helps to minimise hangnails which are a problem for me. It is a tad greasy and doesn't absorb quickly, but it is cuticle cream so I wouldn't expect it to be any other way.

It makes my hands and fingertips smell like lemon tarts. Not at all synthetic or overpowering, very refreshing actually!

There's a lot of product in the small tin since the texture is really thick so a little does go a long way, it'll take me a very long time to finish up. I don't know why it's called a 'crème' when it's more of a balm/wax but I do know that it moisturises cuticles like none other and is great for daily use.

The packaging is the perfect size to pop into your handbag or even pocket. However, opening the product can be a bit tricky, you have to twist and pry the lid to get the product. I find applying a little bit of the cream onto the rim of the tin makes it a lot easier to open.

In terms of usage, it isn't the most hygienic since you swirl your finger to get the product, then apply to your cuticles and dip that same finger right back into the product. I hope that they soon make it in a stick form for ease of application and sanitary reasons.

Overall, I highly recommend it to anyone who needs extra help with their cuticles and nails. It's inexpensive, nourishing, and definitely lives up to its claims (if not more!). I will be investing in more tins of this goodness when and if I finish this current one. Happy shopping!
