I am strangely obsessed with my hands, nails, and cuticles. I have this fixation on keeping smooth cuticles and staying hangnail-free. I’m a lady. When I look at my hands I like them to be pretty and well-groomed.

So how do I keep my cuticles on point, you ask? Swipe them with Vaseline. Yup, good old-fashioned petroleum jelly. Petroleum jelly deeply moisturizes your nail bed and smooths out any crusty-ness. It protects your nails and cuticles like a sealant, keeping dry, nasty cuticles at bay. 

In a pinch, lip balm works too. I went through a phase where I used Rosebud Salve in lieu of cuticle oil for a good 6 months. I swear by it.
