I got this in the last BR beauty vault, I was so excited because I had never used a cuticle repair product before apart from the natural alternatives to it. The fact that it was a Sally Hansen brand confirmed to me that I neeeeeeded it in my life besides the fact that my nails were in dire need of some R & R.
The fact that it is super affordable for a cuticle care product is awesome. I have seen them for upwards of $35. NO THANKS!! I much rather use natural alternatives than spend that much on it. So $15 I can most definitely do without too much second guesses. The tube itself reminded me of a lipgloss tube or a spot treatment tube. I love the vibrant green/teal colour of it. It appeals to the eyes and my head apparently.
The nozzle excites me like a kid in a lolly store. Its a clear paintbrush like applicator which makes it so much easier to squeeze the gel on to your cuticles. The consistency is like I just said a gel. It reminds me of the teeth whitening gel you can get. It takes a bit of time and effort to get the gel to the brush but once there it allows you to brush it on without mess or fuss.
It smells beyond amazing, like fruity, floral goooooodness! I rub it in to my freshly pushed back cuticles and work it in to the area. It doesn't leave my fingers all greasy like I thought it would which is great. It dries off in no time and leaves your fingers smelling sweet. I did this everyday for two weeks and let me tell you the improvement to the strength of my nails and the quality of them is like night and day. My nails now don't split or flake as much as they used to which has never happened! I am beyond excited about what further use will do for my nails. BRING IT ON!
This came in my I love Nails Box. During the mothers day period best beauty boxes had a TGIF sale going. I convinced my partner that this was an awesome deal and thankfully he agreed with me. My nails have been in poor condition lately. Their dry from constantly washing dishes regularly and from doing odd jobs around the house. My nails have become quite brittle within the last two months. I have cut my nails short to regrow them. This I love nails is a good guide for me to learn how to take care of my nails.
This tube came in a fully sealable packet. This tube is a bold teal colour. This tube comes with a brush at the end of it that has a lid at the end of it. The consistency of this is clear like a gel. Theres no scent at all with this. When I apply this to my nails I brush it on. After that I like to massage this gel in to my nails. My nails feel nourished and shiny after this is being used. I like to do this after I have buffed my nails.
After using this my nails feel smoother and nourished. I had bad ridges along my nails, but since using this along with other items in my I love Nails box I can see good changes. I will be repurchasing this because my nails feel smoother.
