The cuticle protects the base of the nail. and the old fashioned and injurious method of cutting and scraping removes both the dead and healthy cuticle, leaving the delicate base un- protected This very often causes soreness ar even infec tion; besides. cutting the cuti- cle makes it very hard and callous. Over growing, ragged cuticle should be removed. and this is easily done by applying Simplex Cuticle Remover.
