Just when I thought my nails couldn't get anymore destroyed than they already have been! We shall see if I can manage a set of nails this week as my nails cannot stop breaking, flexing (and then developing a partial crack) and generally feeling awful so instead of showcasing nails for the usual #CBBxManiMonday post, today we will be "nail adjacent" with a product that helps the nails look their best - cuticle oil!
A couple of weeks ago, I qualified for a Butterly campaign for the L'Occitane Nail and Cuticle Oil and it could not have come at a better time as I can literally hear my hands and their dryness! Formulated with 30% shea oil and sweet almond oil, this is probably one of the most intensely hydrating cuticle oils I own that aims to soften cuticles and encourage healthy nails.
Coming with a precision brush tip, though this $30 tube seems like a hefty price, you barely need to squeeze the tube as literally one drop of product is enough for both hands! It also has the iconic creamy Shea Butter scent that I love so much.
Final verdict: The texture starts off very thick - thick to the point where you feel like you have made a mistake and none of the product will ever absorb! Then in a minute, it all starts to absorb and the "white dryness" showing in my cuticle area and even my nails looks completely hydrated, healthy and pink! A lot of cuticle oils are oily or leave the nail beds looking really shiny, but this absorbs so quickly for something that is literally just made of oils! I also use this on my toes because the cuticle area on my toes is even more dry than my hands!
You can find the L'Occitane Shea Nail and Cuticle Oil at all L'Occitane stores and Sephora!
