What it is

A cream used around the nails to moisturize and soften dry skin. Its conditioning ingredients help retain moisture; it does not repair damaged nail-producing tissue.

How to use

Apply a small amount to intact skin around the nails to help reduce dryness. Massage gently and avoid known allergens; remove surface residue before a service that requires an oil-free nail plate.
