My DIY Intensive Moisture Cuticle Fix Is What Winter Nails Cry Out for

hand-with- red-orange-painted-nails.jpeg
Your nails will smoother and healthier.



Here is a wonderful kitchen beauty fix that I have been using lately to keep the cuticles in great shape as it softens them and the surrounding skin.  This homemade soak smooths, disinfects, and nourishes with apple cider vinegar, olive oil, pineapple juice, and an egg yolk.  

Just remember, you need to push your cuticles back at least once a week.  Otherwise, you might risk suffocating nail growth.  If you have been wondering why your nails refuse to grow, neglected cuticles could be the reason.  


Winter Cuticle Smoother!

1 egg yolk
1-1/2  teaspoons of olive oil
½ teaspoon of apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons of pineapple juice

Mix all the ingredients in a clean bowl.  

Immerse your nails and plan to soak them in the mixture for about 15 minutes or longer is even better.  (I like to treat my nails while I am watching some television instead of just clocking it to make the time fly by).

When you soaked long enough, wipe your nails because your cuticles will be softer now to push them back with an orange stick.


Do try this simple fix because it does help.

Washing your hands is necessary, but doing it frequently does affect the condition of your nails and cuticles. When you can’t thoroughly lubricate with a cuticle oil because you are working on the computer, perhaps, and want to avoid excess greasiness, then I know you would be interested to learn more about Burt’s Bees Lemon Butter Cuticle Cream that I’ve been using. 

This 2013 Latina Beauty Award winning product comes in a small tin that hardly takes any room in your handbag or a desk drawer. I found it had a great texture and fresh lemony scent.  However, what I loved the most was how this formula moisturizes dry cuticles and brittle nails exceptionally well with sweet almond, sunflower, and lemon oils, cocoa seed butter, and vitamin E so you can still work on the computer without leaving a greasy trail.

At around $6 a pop, you can afford to keep several on hand at different locations.  Do check out Burt’s Bees Lemon Butter Cuticle Cream because it does help with those dry cuticles and brittle nail problems without destroying your budget!
