ORIGINAL STORY—February 3, 2021: Amazon’s beauty department (like Gretchen Weiner’s hair!) is full of secrets. My latest and greatest discovery: the Cuccio Cuticle Oil, a nourishing nail oil that I—and about 78,389 five-star reviewers—are obsessed with for healing damaged cuticles and split nails. Also, she’s very cute.
I didn’t stumble upon this miracle worker overnight, though. I’ve dealt with brittle nails for years (hi, stress)—and winter’s cold temps and the current state of overwashing my hands hasn’t helped one bit. I’ve tried all the best cuticle oils in search of the One. O.P.I. Avoplex? My first love (now reformulated). CND Solar Oil? An old desk companion. Olive & June Cuticle Serum? Great for precision. But as much as these products helped me deal with my picked-at cuticles and split tips, none has made a lasting difference in my nail-care routine as much as the Cuccio Cuticle Oil.
I decided to add this product to cart after combing through thousands of rave reviews backing the hype. “Performs miracles,” one reformed nail biter said. “The smell relaxes me,” someone else wrote. A skeptical mother with brittle nails admitted to being “wonderfully surprised” after seeing improvements in nail health after only a few days. Even people who pick their cuticles raw agreed this oil has magical healing powers.
