My cuticles are dry and cracked. How can this product help with nail care?

This product can be an effective part of a simple cuticle care routine. Dry, cracked cuticles are often a result of moisture loss and exposure to detergents or weather. The petroleum jelly helps by creating a protective seal over the cuticle skin.

For best results, use it after washing your hands or a warm shower, when the skin is clean and slightly softened. Gently push back your cuticles with a soft towel, then take a tiny amount of the jelly and massage it into each cuticle and the surrounding nail fold. Its occlusive property will trap the existing moisture against the skin, preventing further drying and allowing the area to soften over time. For intensive care, apply a slightly thicker layer before bed and wear cotton gloves overnight. With consistent use, this can improve the look and feel of the skin around your nails by reducing flakiness and roughness. Remember, it improves the condition of the skin but does not treat underlying nail or skin disorders.
