Regular, proper hand care also includes care for the cuticle: its softening and removal, nutrition. Few people understand that the condition of the cuticle affects the health of the entire nail as a whole. The cuticle on the nails is a dense leathery roller that surrounds the nail plate of the lower part of the nail. It plays a protective role, preventing foreign bodies and bacteria from penetrating the germinal zone. The edges of the cuticle are dead cells. They dry and then exfoliate, giving rise to burrs that are very painful and unaesthetic. Therefore, the cuticle is usually removed.
About 20 years ago, few women thought about what the cuticle is and why it should be removed. Today, those who want to stay beautiful even to the tips of their nails, there is definitely something to choose from: these are various oils, gels, creams, etc. Everyone can choose a cuticle remover to their liking.
Using all of these tools is very easy. It is only necessary to apply the cuticle remover on the skin around the nails and leave it for a while. After a few minutes, the excess cuticle can be easily removed and applied with a nutrient.
Most cuticle care products are released in vesicles and a brush and tubes. Which cuticle remover is needed depends on the condition of the cuticle.
If the cuticle is thick and dry, funds should be selected that can solve this problem. This cuticle is usually trimmed, minimizing the possibility of injury. If you use the cuticle remover regularly, then after a while the need for trimmed manicure will disappear by itself. Cuticle removers are usually used during a manicure procedure (usually 1 time per week), oil or nourishing creams are recommended to be used daily.
