What are the benefits of Gelous Cuticle Oil?
Cuticle Oil helps with nail growth
Cuticle Oil is a crucial factor in helping nail growth. Our hands and nails go through so much on a daily basis, with use of soaps, hot water, cleaning products, and more. This can be very damaging not only to the skin on your hands, but also your nail beds. Our nails are produced by a collection of cells underneath the base of our nails, which is called the nail matrix. Applying Cuticle Oil to your cuticles and the area around them helps to encourage nail growth by keeping them moisturised and nourished. The vitamins found in it help with brittle, discoloured and dry nails - perfect for us manicure enthusiasts! Using Cuticle Oil regularly will keep your nails strong, encourage nail growth and have your fingers looking fabulous and moisturised at all times.
Cuticle Oil hydrates your hands and nails
Having your hands look manicured to perfection always helps with looking put together. There’s nothing worse than having a beautiful manicure but the skin around your nails is dry, cracked and wrinkly. Additionally, when your skin is dry and lifting due to dryness it can expose more sensitive layers of the skin, which can be painful and even cause infection! The ingredients found in our Cuticle Oil are extremely hydrating and easily absorbed into the skin leaving your cuticles feeling moisturised and healthy, which is always a win!
Cuticle Oil helps extend the life of your gel manicure
Cuticle Oil can also be extremely helpful with the longevity of your gel manicure. It prevents hangnails and and helps shrink your cuticles, allowing them to be pushed back with ease. This provides a smoother, unhindered surface for your Gel Nail Polish to adhere to. Cuticle Oil should be applied between gel manicures and during gel manicures, as hydrated cuticles means your gel manicure is less likely to chip and last longer.
We hope that this has given you some insight into the wonderful benefits of Cuticle Oil and why it is an essential part of your Gel Nail Polish routine. Whether you want to encourage nail growth, nourish your cuticles, increase the longevity of your manicure or all three, Cuticle Oil is a must. Apply it regularly and keep your fingers looking fresh, shiny and salon-quality.
