Burt’s Bees Lemon Butter Cuticle Creme

Burt’s Bees Lemon Butter Cuticle Creme is designed to help hydrate dry cuticles, brittle nails, and fingertips. It uses a combination of sweet almond oil, beeswax, vitamin E, cocoa butter and lemon oil to do so.

It comes in a metal tin, and inside is a solid balm. The tin is small in size and easy to take with you. However, sometimes the lid gets a bit stuck.

The star ingredient in Burt's Bees Lemon Butter Cuticle Creme is Lemon Oil. Obtained from the fresh peel of the fruit of the Citrus Lemon tree, this oil is known for its astringent and anti-irritant qualities. Lemon Oil has a natural, refreshingly clean scent. On skin, it cuts through oils and dirt. Leaving smoother skin and softer cuticles.

Burt's Bees Lemon Butter Cuticle Creme smells strongly of lemon. I don't really like it though, but i got used to it after applying it a couple of times.

The base of the product is beeswax, so it has a bit of a waxy texture. It feels a little greasy when I applied it on, but absorbs quickly.

I'll normally use Burt's Bees Lemon Butter Cuticle Creme after removing my nail polish ( that's when the nails are driest) or before i go to bed. Give it some 10 minutes. The oils will sink into the skin around the nails and re-nourish my dry nails and cuticles. I wake up with perfectly hydrated and soft cuticles :)

To use it, simply swirl your finger around the product. Then gently massage it into your cuticles.  I would call it a rescue balm for troubled cuticles, brittle nails and chapped/ cracked fingertips. If used regularly, it would keep nails and cuticles in good condition.
