cuticle oil

Nail bed conditioner

Cuticle oil is a moisturizing product applied to the skin around fingernails and toenails.

It softens the cuticles—the thin layer of skin at the base of the nail—making them easier to push back or trim during manicures.

Regular use prevents dryness, cracking, and hangnails: She dabbed cuticle oil on her nails before bed.
