Nail care is an important step in any beauty routine, but it’s one that’s often skipped. And if there’s one thing a nail technician will tell you time and again, it’s to regularly apply cuticle oil. Not only does it keep your nails strong, but if you get manicures, it’ll keep your set looking fresh for much longer.
But how does cuticle oil work? Just like the skin on your face, the skin around your nails gets dry. These specially formulated oils contain hydrating and moisturising ingredients to keep cuticles healthy and happy. “Cuticle oil can also provide a protective barrier against bacteria and fungi, reducing the risk of infection,” says Holly Wolff, nail technician at Neville Hair & Beauty.
