Let’s be honest—our nails go through a lot. From gel manicures to constant polish changes and exposure to harsh chemicals they barely get a break. I’ve definitely been guilty of pushing my nails to the limit in the name of cute designs, only to find them dry, peeling, and kind of sad underneath. Over time, I’ve realized that healthy nails don’t just happen. You’ve got to give them the same tender loving care you’d give your skin or hair.
So what’s helped me get my nails back to looking glowy and healthy from edge to tip? A few key things: making sure I’m eating enough protein and calcium (seriously, it shows in your nails), using a nano glass nail buffer (game. changer.), and keeping my cuticles happy with a good cuticle oil.
That brings me to a little gem I’ve been loving lately: the Innisfree Nail Cuticle Oil. It’s affordable, easy to use, and kind of underrated, to be honest. Let me tell you why it’s earned a permanent spot in my routine.
The Innisfree Nail Cuticle Oil is designed to deeply moisturize and nourish the dry areas around the cuticles, especially for those who frequently change nail colours. It is said to be:
1. Moisturising care to restore shine on dry and rough nails
Deeply moisturises and nourishes the dry area around the cuticle with avocado oil, jojoba seed oil and tangerine oil.
2. Easy nail care while on the move
Roll-on design for easy application allows for convenient nail care anytime and anywhere.
3. Quick penetration and moist finish
The oil quickly penetrates around the nail with a moisturising finish.
Packaging, Scent & Size
The Innisfree Nail Cuticle Oil comes in a sleek, transparent 7.5ml roll-on glass bottle. The compact size makes it travel-friendly and easy to carry in your bag for on-the-go nail care. The roll-on applicator is smooth and glides easily around the nail bed without wasting product. The scent is subtle (aromatic essential oil scent), not overpowering, which is ideal for those sensitive to strong fragrances. Despite its small size, the oil is long-lasting, as only a small amount is needed per application.
Ingredients
Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Macadamia Ternifolia Seed Oil, Persea Gratissima (Avocado) Oil, Fragrance / Parfum, Citrus Unshiu Fruit Oil
My Opinion
Honestly? I’m impressed. It smells great, feels light—not sticky or overly oily—and soaks in fast. By the next morning, my cuticles feel soft, and my nails have this natural, healthy shine that I usually only get after a manicure. It’s like a mini spa treatment in a bottle for your nails. I’ve been using it before bed, and my nails look noticeably more polished (even when they’re bare).
How I apply the Innisfree Nail Cuticle Oil
- Roll the ball applicator around the edge of your nails, focusing on the area between the skin and the nails.
- Gently massage the oil in a circular motion into the cuticles and surrounding skin.
- Allow the oil to absorb; there's no need to rinse.
For best results, use frequently, especially if your nails are damaged or dry. Regular application can lead to noticeable improvements in nail and cuticle health.
Final verdict
The Innisfree Nail Cuticle Oil is an affordable and underrated product that delivers on its promises. Its blend of natural oils provides effective hydration and nourishment, making it a valuable addition to any nail care routine. Whether you're someone who frequently changes nail colours or just looking to maintain healthy nails, this product is worth considering. Let me know what you think! Speak soon x
