Today I'd like to show you my experience with Pure Nail Oil. I had originally read Kimber's review on Kimber's Lacquer Corner, and it left me thinking "I need to try that!" Her nails and cuticles have made a complete transformation, and she absolutely swears by this stuff!
Pure Nail Oil is made in small batches by a woman named Ana at NailCareHQ.com. There are many different product sizes/packages to choose from, but because I was starting out for the first time, I purchased the starter kit. The starter kit comes with a 15mL bottle as well as a pen and retails for $22.
The kit also comes with a small instruction sheet on how to complete the 3-Day "Go Naked" Challenge. I attempted this challenge over the past weekend and have seen an improvement in my own nail and cuticle health.
Below is the photo on day one before applying any oil.
I have a bad habit of pushing my cuticles way back constantly, so that natural seal the skin fold makes to protect the nail isn't intact. You can see that my cuticles are lifted from my nail plate on the first three fingers in the above photo. You can also see a little bit of skin poking off the cuticles of my pointer and middle fingers. I also had a small scab on the thumb on my left hand (not pictured) before starting the challenge. Also not pictured are the small hard hangnail-like appendages my fingernails tend to get on the sidewalls.
Above is a photo of my nails after one full day of oiling. The small amount of poking skin on my pointer and middle fingers is gone, and my cuticles actually look like they've started to lay down more on my nail plate. I had not pushed back my cuticles at all for at least a full 24 hours at this point.
The above photo was taken after three full days of oiling my cuticles and nails. There isn't a huge difference between this photo and the photo taken after one full day of oiling, but I have noticed that I don't need to oil as frequently, and my nails and cuticles hold the moisture much longer than with any other cuticle oil I've tried. My cuticles continue to try to restore their protective seal, as I haven't pushed back my cuticles in three days at this point. The scab on my thumb (not pictured) is completely gone, and the small hangnail-like things by my sidewalls (also not pictured) are much softer and don't snag on things nearly as much anymore.
Overall, I'm really impressed with this nail oil. My nails haven't been this long-- ever! I haven't used a strengthening base coat in at least 4 days, and my nails are maintaining their strength. I definitely recommend this oil above any other cuticle/nail treatment. Go buy some here now! And if you don't believe me, be sure to check out Ana's personal story here. It's unbelievable the benefits and improvements this oil provides in the long run!
That's all for today :) See you next time!
