Cuticle Cream Recipe

Yield: 12 Bottles  |  Est. Time: 1 Hour  |  Level: Easy
About This Recipe:
We like this formula because the added citrus essential oils are thought to help with absorption of the natural evening primrose oil. The mineral oil is thought to help protect the nail bed from the elements while locking in moisture. User should apply cream in a circular motion with very light pressure to the nail bed and cuticle. This will provide a gentle yet stimulating massage to the cuticles.
