    Can you recommend a good cuticle remover.

    My nails and cuticles are a mess - in fact, a bit embarrassing at the moment. I'm only using hand cream when moisturising my hands (which are in an even worse state). I think I really need to start using a product designed for cuticles, but not sure which products are good. Any recommendations would be appreciated. TIA x.

    I use a cuticle trimmer to remove them and cuticle oil which I use whenever I have finished painting my nails as I find it helps them to dry. As long as I do that handcream is generally fine

    I'd use a cuticle hydrating product and an orange stick to gently push them back, rather than removing them completely. Lush do a decent one, as do The Body Shop or OPI Avoplex is really nice but pricier. I personally use Burts Bees Lemon stuff as I like the texture and the massaging you need to warm it for it to absorb.

    I use an OPI cuticle remover and then push cuticles back with an orange stick. For cuticle moitutisation I am currently using sweet almond oil. I read somewhere that it is supposed to be fantastic for moisturising cuticles.

    I use Mavala cuticle remover, and either almond oil or handcream to moisturise my cuticles.

    Thank you for the recommendations I am very tempted by the OPI cuticle treatment, I don't mind paying a bit more if it's good

    WSS this stuff is the Bees knees sorry but it's true. Only thing that has cured my chronically dry hands and nails.

    I decided to go with OPI stuff, but will keep Burts Bees in mind, thank you x.
