The Best Hand and Cuticle Creams to Treat Your Nail Beds
Does it always seem like your nails never look as good as when you get them done at a salon? More than likely, it's not your polishing job. It's your cuticles! They almost always clip or push them back and apply oil to give you a soft, seamless look.
To avoid having them grow back unruly, consider using one of these hand and cuticle creams, and you'll notice that your manicures will last longer and your at-home paint job will look better.

Clinique Deep Comfort Hand and Cuticle Cream: $30
We've always trusted Clinique's skincare, so we knew we were in good hands (pun intended) when we discovered their Deep Comfort Hand and Cuticle Cream. It has a thicker texture without feeling greasy, which is why we love to use it as an overnight mask. While you rest, hyaluronic acid and glycerin will work to offer exfoliation and hydration.
