This smells wonderful (smells like lemon cookies). It goes on well (feels good, isn't too greasy) and a little goes a long way. It is a good size to put in your purse or pocket (not too big). The only reason it did not get 5 stars is the price. It is pricey. I have used other cuticle creams (oils mostly). But the problem with oil is it is difficult to transport (keep in purse) and it sometimes leaks. I am a busy working mom who is constantly washing my hands (the reason I need it) and it works.
This "cream" works and it's easy to use. My nails and cuticles look healthy. I think it's best to put on at night before bedtime, but it's also an asset after I've had my hands in water cleaning something. I think it's worth the price and it seems to go a long ways.
An unfortunate habit of biting my cuticles, combined with a chronic dry skin condition, has resulted in 30+ years of hiding my hands. My cuticles were always raw, ragged, and completely ugly. I tried everything from cuticle oil to extra-strength hand cream to paraffin dips with no success.
While on a business trip to a cold climate, my cuticles were particularly ugly and so sensitive they were painful. On a whim, I purchased this cream thinking that it would at least give a few minutes of relief. Immediately my skin felt better, and within a week, my hands looked better than they ever have. I keep a tin at work, at home, and in my travel bag - it's great for travel. I'll never be without it again - it's amazing.
p.s. Their Miracle Salve works wonderfully on cracked heels as well.
You won't be disappointed with this product...that is, as long as you don't mind the lemon scent. I use this product every day and have been using it for many months. It moisturizes the cuticles so they aren't all white and annoying looking. This is particularly useful for people like me who don't paint fingernails. Professional manicures just never made my list of priorities. Using this product makes the nails look "clean" and healthy. I can't imagine being without it!
Whoever this Burt guy is deserves a big hug. I have always had problems with dry, cracked cuticles - until today. I had heard a friend say that she can't live without it, so when I saw it in the grocery store today I decided to try it. It was a bit expensive ($5) for a little tub of it, but MAN...I don't care anymore. I will buy this stuff for the rest of my life if it continues working the way it has in just a few hours. Seriously, this is one amazing product.
I recieved the cuticle creme in a pack for Christmas... and well. It's my favorite thing out of the entire "healthy hands" kit.
I was a ritual nail biter since childhood, and now being 21 I have a reason to not bite them.
I'm not suggesting this will work for everyone to deter nail biting, but I found that by taking the time to take care of my nails that I didn't want to ruin them by biting them any longer.
I always had the bad cuticles and my nails were just overall gross... but now they're growing out nicely. My cuticles aren't frayed and my nails are shinier than they've ever been. They're actually so nice that I don't even want to polish them. It sort of looks like there is a 'clear coat' on yours nails after using this product from the very first day. After a while using them you actually feel your nail get smoother...
AWESOME product.
This is really good stuff for keeping those cuticles in good shape so they do not dry out and cause problems. It has a good scent -- not all girly, so it's good for guys (like me) who wash their hands often and gals who like the lemony freshness.
