For Overworked Hands That Need a Little Love

I use this stuff at least once a week. I give myself manicures because I'm constantly changing colors or working hard with my hands so it's too expensive to go to a salon regularly. The Instant Cuticle Remover isn't really instant though it does work well. I put it on each of my cuticles and let it sit while I file my nails. When the filing is done I push back the cuticles and wipe off the exc...read moreess. I wash my hands with soap and water, swipe each nail with alcohol or polish remover, then paint the nails. Once the nails are dry I put on a bit of cuticle oil followed by hand lotion all over (handles the dryness issue), and I look like I just spent $40 at a high-end salon. It really does work and is an essential part of my nail grooming routine. I highly recommend it!

Katatonia said it best!

I completely agree with her entire statment. It just made cuticles easier to push back.

Eh

I was already skeptical about removing my cuticles- but this is too powerful and has definitely made my nail bed feel different after one try.

Must have

Good, good stuff. Personally i prefer to cut the cuticle off, but i know that it is not wright. That's why i love Sally Hansen Instant Cuticle Remover - it helps me to fight my bad habit . The transparent gel effectively dissolve rough skin and if you wash it away after the procedure and follow with hand cream, your hand will look neat and beautiful. And now what makes this treatment the absolute...read more winner - the one bottle 29 ml lasted 1 year for me!!!!!!!! Even though i use it for my husband too

Melts Dead Skin!

I do like this because it works FAST - your excess or dead cuticle will soften and come off quickly. Good if you've neglected your nails a while and have buildup of dry cuticle. Didn't dry my cuticles out.

Awesome!

It works great and really fast! Highly effective removing the cuticles, it is pretty drying on the skin though so you might want to follow with the Sally cuticle oil and let that soak in for a good while. I love this product and it does live up to claims!

Too powerful

This is powerful stuff. It removes cuticles very well and very quickly, but it also always leaves my cuticles drier than they were before. I'd rather use a BHA or AHA product on my hands everyday to keep cuticles under control than use this overly strong product.
