I was first introduced to SolarOil about three years ago while completing cosmetology school. A representative from Creative Nail Design taught our course on nails (both natural nails and nail enhancements) and introduced us to just about every product made by the company. As much as I love receiving manicures and pedicures, the nail course wasn't my favorite. And to this day I still can't believe I used to wear long airbrushed tips with an acrylic overlay! I could barely get through the section on nail enhancements due to the odors! At any rate, I will tell you that one of my favorite nail products is the SolarOil, by Creative Nail Design. It's a very light nail and cuticle conditioner which contains a blend of jojoba oil, rice bran oil, sweet almond oil and vitamin E. This blend of oils works to protect cuticles from cracking and conditions the nails, preventing breakage. I love that fact that the SolarOil contains one of my favorite ingredients, jojoba oil! Jojoba oil is very similar to human sebum (the natural oil produced by the human body) and therefore is structured so that it's able to penetrate deep into the skin. This helps with cell renewal and slows signs of aging. And, as we all know, the hands along with the forehead, eyes, mouth and neck all show signs of aging first. While this is used during a manicure or pedicure service, it should also be used nightly.
What do you use to keep your cuticles and nails conditioned? Please share your favorites!
