Thanks for the comparison! I’ve been trying to find something to remove my cuticles since every time I try to cut them they bleed. This will definitely save my nails!!
Sine Wavez if your bleeding or cuticles are irritated in anyway you’re cutting way too much! Cuticles should really be pushed back and remove the rarely ever need to cut 😉
@@TheNaturalNailGuru thanks for this advice! I’ve recently started doing my own acrylic nails at home and the nail prep is very important. When I removed cuticles using the tools I would bleed and cut through my fingers :( but You’re explanation on what to remove was excellent! Thank you
Wow I have some of this somewhere!! I’ve got to look for it. Just wondering, what do you do with the bits that did get left behind? Light Russian manicure? I want to prevent cutting cuticles as much as I can!
Yeah, I bought the cuticle remover that is in the blue bottle, uhh Sally Hansen, and it worked beautifully for me. First time I have ever used something like that. I couldn't be any happier honestly :)
what happens if you leave the solution on too long? I have this fear that it'll dissolve my nails lol. but it looks like 3min is safe enough. thanks for doing this video :)
i have been using sally Hanson for years without problem. I use about once a month. Mainly, I just use a soft soapy nail brush or washcloth every day in my shower every day. I just gently rub and push back the cuticle in the shower and that keeps my cuticles pretty clear.
Yes that definitely helps and it’s very simple you definitely do not need anything fancy unless you have very thick Cuticle that sticks a lot to the nail not a lot of people have that issue but some might however just pushing your key to go back out of the shower is great!
I need to try this ! I’m trying SO hard to grow nice nails. I have horrible anxiety and bite and pick so pick :( my nails look like crap . Hoping this can help or at least start
Jennifer Aguirre push those cuticles back , definitely going to help growth but touching picking and biting your nails no matter how good you are in caring for your nails those things will destroy them so you definitely want to avoid! Nail health and skin can literally improve from one week to the next if you stop irritating it so you will see results quick I know it will be hard but you can do it!
I love this comparison! when you do gel manicures on your clients do you only use cuticle remover instead of soaking in water? is that the best way to do gel manicures? I've used the sally hansen remover and i love it but now i want to try the CND one 😍
Omg never soak in water!!!! 🙅🏻♀️ Doesn’t matter what kind of polish or product you’re putting on the nail you should never soak in water. I’ve gone over all the basics in the manicure process but those are some of my first videos so I will definitely be sure to revisit and go over this. It is the most important parts water list and cuticle care everything else is cake LOL I’ll be revisiting soon
I keep reading not to use metal cuticle tools, do you find it’s possible to use them without causing any damage to the mail plate? I’ve been using orange wood sticks but the tool you’re using looks much more effective
I hate using plastic pushers or wood sticks they truly do not help clean the nail plate. I only use stainless steel cuticle pusher’s and I guarantee all of my clients have the healthiest nails and cuticles they have ever had. I’ll be doing more videos detailing my manicure process and how are use the tools so definitely stay tuned
Cuticles aren't detrimental to nail health. In fact I serve as a barrier to protect the sense of area where your skin and nail meet. I think people are just obsessed with removing them because they can, and maybe perhaps because the nail looks nicer and more uniform.
omg I jus ordered this on amazon after seein a vid on instagram n ur video was a big help!! I've been clippin my cuticles for years (ik not good lol) n this'll save me sooo much time :)
cherylbeniet don’t soak in water!! U don’t want to do that at all! Especially if applying any kind of product to the nail afterwards. I’ve seen it done in the local salons they dab a bit of remover and stick your nails on water 😑 no need to do 2 diff things that both will essentially soften the cuticle to push back and remove. Hope that was helpful!! I have a water less manicure video one of the older ones more info on why waterless and how 😉
I do cuticle remover on my toes, blue cross brand, for my fingers I use cuticle bits with my efile, very gently of course but my cuticles are very sticky. I love it when you do comparisons. Tfs Tati
Be aware because shaving off cuticle causes it to stick more to the nail growing back harder and thicker. It irritates it. Although it can be tedious pushing back and removing the cuticle the old fashion way not only promotes better nail health and growth but minimize the growth of the cuticle overtime I promise!
Why do a waterless manicure vs using water? Also, is a cuticle remover really necessary or can we use a watery lotion instead to soften the area in the interest of saving money/not over-accumulating products?
Definitely watch my waterless manicure video I talk all about it. You don’t need to use a cuticle remover however lotions tend to be very oily and can work against making sure the product adheres to your nail plate really well. In return using something like lotion could result in product lifting off the nail plate. You can do a completely dry manicure however that’s really rough on the skin and you really need to be patient and careful
@@TheNaturalNailGuru Thanks for your reply. I always make sure to wash my hands very well with soap to remove any lotion residue or oils before putting on polish. I'm just wondering if cuticle remover has any actual benefit over using a lotion to soften the cuticles before pushing them back/removing them.
Fungus can be a serious thing and sometimes requires medication so you definitely want to keep an ion it if it gets more discolored or spreads. Moisture is the devil! Keep your feet dry don’t wear the same shoes every day it will take consistency and patience and if it’s some thing that does not start getting better within a few weeks you should get seen by a doctor so you can treat it properly. And yes you can definitely use a cuticle remover for your toes just always make sure you wipe away the residue with water 😉
@@TheNaturalNailGuru thank you for your advice I’ve been prescribed medicine but it didn’t make it better but I will make sure to go back, I had called for an appointment and they said it wasn’t extreme and I’d have to wait for COVID restrictions to reduce. Do you recommend I go to a podiatrist.
When you’re applying any kind of product on the nail the manicure should always be waterless. Your nails absorb the water and it takes hours for it to dry out completely (up to 24 hrs) So now you’ve applied product to a saturated nail and once the nail dries it tends to shrink making it easy for product to separate. I’ve done a video or two on this definitely check it out for more info😉
Kind of a weird question but when I use my Sally Hansen Cuticle remover will it get the bottom of each nail to go further down my finger or will my nails still be the same length? I have always been one who chews her nails, its not been as bad these last few yrs but my nails are still short, even when growing my nails they dont get very long on my fingers they mostly stick off the fingers then break easily. I wish I could get 95% of my nail on each finger to be on the finger itself and not sticking off the top. I also am wondering how long should I wait between each cleaning?
Hey! A basic manicure like this can be done once a week this makes it easier than doing it once a month. If you want your nails and proximal nail fold to heal and be healthy after damage try using a cuticle oil every day after you wash your hands. Just a quick drop should cover your nails and combined with the weekly manicure, and trimming your nails very short until they get healthy should make a big difference! It does take time though. Give it a shot! It helped my horrible nails tremendously!
The trick is stop touching it! Your skin gets hard because it’s protecting itself but the less you irritated the softer it’ll start getting again. It’s getting very sensitive no picking no touching her rubbing keep it moisturized you’ll see a big improvement
I always wince when I watch someone push back cuticles, especially with the metal tool because it hurts me so much when someone does it to me. 🤭😊 Thank you for the review/demo. I got this and have been scared to use it until seeing this video. 😅
Definitely don’t be scared! Just be patient and gentle and if you’re sensitive around the cuticle area I would let it sit a little bit longer do you want the skin as soft as possible and a tool that is definitely not dull
Definitely can use it on cuticles for the toes and I would say give it a try for Calais it’s a skin softener essentially and some thing specific for that so it should be useful might even be really effective let me know if you try it!
@@TheNaturalNailGuru I used it on the knuckles of my toes as those get calloused... I don't think the Sally Hansen product is meant to be for callouses because I would have to leave it on longer but it dries. Do you know of anything that is the same idea but for callouses?
I bought it on Saturday and it actually works. I was stuck with cuticles for long. Also I’m lazy and I hate cutting my nails because they grow like weeds.
Hi thank you so much definitely a detail I will be sure to never miss again. I want my reviews to be as thorough as possible and ultimately that’s definitely something that could possibly affect the results. Thank you 🤘🏼
Annie Diamond haven’t had any issues ever or heard those effects for maintaining the cuticle remover on longer but definitely something I’ll keep an eye out for and if I hear or find anything I’ll make sure to share it!
I’ve used two of these little bottles and definitely didn’t have an issue with that. Hangnails usually come from excessive dryness or fidgeting / picking at the nails or the skin around it. biting at the skin things like that. And when you do get hangnails you want to make sure that you properly cut them because if you pull them you create a little space where the hangnail will continue to grow out I’ll definitely be doing a video on what I know about hangnails and what I’ve experienced with my clients and hope that it can help a little bit it’s definitely a good subject to touch on 😉
I'm convinced cuticles aren't a problem whatsoever and the only reason people remove them is because it's satisfying. In fact I think they even have a purpose, to prevent infections where the nail and beds into the skin, it's like protection.
I know you’re not a big influencer with a small amount of subs but your accent is hard to understand. You barely showed the “sanden” or whatever the second stuff is called. You should put them in the description box!!
