Product Review: Nail & Cuticle Cream

It’s the time of year for eggnog, family, and hangnails. Just like the rest of your skin, the skin on your cuticles seems to be as dry as the Sahara Desert, causing hangnails, cuts, and irritation. I discovered a product several years ago to combat those nagging problems, and I have been nearly hangnail-free ever since.

L’Occitane Nail & Cuticle Cream comes in a small silver tube costing $18.00. The price seems steep, but it’s well worth your money. The 0.52 ounces will last you virtually forever; after all, you really don’t need much to cover your cuticle. And the benefits are tremendous.

Before discovering this product, I had some serious issues with dry, cracking skin around my cuticles. I had moved from a humid climate to practically the desert, and my whole body was agonizing over the change in climate. I found myself constantly having cuts and hangnails, and I couldn’t seem to apply enough lotion or Neosporin to create a long-term solution to the problem.

And then I met L’Occitane Nail & Cuticle Cream. The product contains 30% pure shea butter, and it began to clear up my hangnails within 24 hours. The product also provides moisture to your nails, which helps to create a natural sheen. Since I began using this product three years ago, I have gone through two tubes (or $36) and I have hardly suffered a hangnail since. In a pinch, I have also used the product on my lips and on burns my hands suffer from cooking.
L’Occitane Nail & Cuticle Cream is available at all L’Occitane stores and on their website. Next time your nails start crying for relief, be sure to give it a shot. I don’t think you will regret it.
