Ut is not difficult matter to have
your nails look exquisitely well
l. groomed all the time. 1t is simply
matter of knowing how.
First, remember not to cut the cuticle.
When the cuticle is trimmed or cut, the
skin around the base of the nail soon
becomes dry and ragged. 1t roughs up,
forms hangnails and makes your whole
hand unattr active.
All specialists agree that in caring
for the nails, your effort should be to
keep the cuticle unbroken.
You can have cuticle that outlines
the base of the nail smoothly, evenly,
without clipping or cutting. Cutex was
scientifically prepared to meet the need
for harmless cuticle remover. 1t is
absolutely harmless. The moment you
use it you realize you have at last
