cuticlesSummer is here and it’s time to get your cuticles in tip top shape!

When your mani needs a little help but you don’t have the time or bucks to spend at the salon try this fab trick you can do at home for little to no cost! Slice up 5 grapes, a half grape per finger.

Dip the grape in sugar.

 

 

three-grapesMassage each grape over your cuticle in a circular motion for 30 seconds. Why this works is the grapes contain Malic Acid which is a mild form of Alpha Hydroxy Acid which will get rid of dead skin cells. The sugar acts as an exfoliant sweeps away the extra dead skin. Wipe off with a warm wash cloth. Next take a nail trimmer and clip away any stubborn cuticles that are still left behind.

This tip is super fun and easy and is a great activity to do with your kids too!
