About care of nails - hygienic manicure, it is possible to argue long. Each girl who tremblingly watches a condition of a marigold has rules and favourite actions for maintenance of beauty and nails of a healthy type and skin of hands.
I want to devote this review to care of a cuticle. What is a cuticle? If to answer with a simple language, then it is the thin skin located on the basis of a nail. It possesses protective functions.
Now the popularity was gained by the European manicure. The procedure at which the cuticle is not cut off and is removed away. How many tried to do without cuticle scissors, the received result without removal of a cuticle did not suit me. Therefore I and do cut manicure.
Removal of a cuticle does not mean that further it is not necessary to look after it. We cut off dead cages, they periodically die off, and hangnails turn out. And live skin needs food and moistening.
I used several means for care of a cuticle: cream, wax and oils.
The most effective product – wax. Further goes oil, but here too It should be noted that it is different in quality. Cream was not pleasant absolutely.
About the American professional OPI brand it has heard a lot long ago, and bribed pretty often positive posts and articles. And here, at last, I bought on trial oil from OPI on a sale at a discount of 40%.
It appeared with exotic oil of avocado. Volume is different: for saloon procedures it is more, for house use – 7.5 ml.
In the Avoplex series several products: from a cuticle eliminator to lotion for skin of hands. Now in my "ukhodovy" small suitcase there is only an oil.
All inscriptions on a box and a bottle in English. There is a small sticker with the Russian-language text.
Slightly below than a sticker the information about structure is written. It is pleasant to read, it is a lot of natural oils.
Ethylhexyl Palmitate – improves absorbency of oils in skin, softens and looks after integuments.
Grape seed oils and sunflower. Are very useful to a cuticle, the first – removes irritation, is quickly absorbed; the second – goes as base oil.
Isopropyl Palmitate is written in some sources that it is dangerous, in others – no.
Lecithin – lecithin helps to keep moisture in dry nails.
Still available sesame, oil cuckoo (for the first time I hear).
A quantity of preservatives which promote preservation of Avoplex nail & cuticle Replenishing oil till October, 2018 contains.
Consistence of oil rather liquid, but the droplets applied to skin do not spread.
Aroma with grapes notes.
In a set the screwing-up cover is applied. And pipette. With a similar way of drawing it is buttered on skin I face for the first time. At first it is unusual, but by means of the pipette it is possible to make any by the size a drop. It is very practical to control a means expense.
I found an insert in a box, but for me it was less informative as in English.
My impressions.
I use oil of 6 days, and I can already express the opinion.
Avoplex nail & cuticle very pleasant and easily absorbed oil. I use it 2-3 times a day. In the morning - after washing of hands from the street, and in the evening - before going to bed.
If I have no decorative manicure, then with pleasure rub oil with avocado massage movements in a cuticle and a nail plate.
Cuticle to, a little dry
Result later
The effect is good, the aroma some time keeps on skin.
The only minus - cost: without discount in Rive Gauche - 600 rub; I bought for 340 rubles on the stock of "-40%".
