Nail Cream

Nail cream is a rich moisturising product intended for the nail folds, cuticles, fingertips and surrounding dry skin. Formulas may contain glycerin, petrolatum, shea butter, plant oils or other emollients that help soften rough cuticles and improve the appearance of dry or brittle-looking nails. Massage a small amount into clean nails and cuticles, particularly after handwashing or before bed. Wearing gloves during frequent water exposure and household cleaning can also help reduce dryness. Nail cream improves moisture and cosmetic appearance but does not treat fungal infections, marked nail separation or unexplained colour and shape changes, which should be assessed professionally.
