You may have heard about it before, but the first step when wanting a perfect manicure is to push back the cuticles. Why do we push the cuticles and take care of them? In this article, the nail supply expert Maryton will give you answers. Keep reading!

Indeed, the cuticles are essentially made up of epidermis. Just like hair and nails, cuticles grow and gradually cover the base of the nail. Despite their recognized usefulness, cuticles that are too large shrink the nail, making the hand less elegant at the same time.

On the other hand, damaged cuticles or dry or excess skin give a neglected appearance to the nails. It is therefore important to take care of them, to repel them but also to hydrate them. Note that cuticles that are too long also prevent the semi-permanent varnish from spreading properly during application and encourage peeling.

Hoping that this article has pleased you and will give you ideas! In addition, I also advise you to invest in some professional manicure sets to care for nails.
