ELF Nourishing Cuticle Pen Review

I have a very bad case of cuticle picking as they are always dry, flaky, and keep giving up on me. More than that it's like an addiction to me, I pick my cuticles whenever I'm bored, happy, nervous, you name it! I know it's a bad habit but I can't help it. So to solve this problem of mine I thought I'd give my cuticles some nourishment. I saw this cuticle pen on the ELF website and I had to give it a try.

It came in this clear packaging like most products from the ELF Essential line. And like all ELF products the directions, claims, ingredients, etc., are clearly given on the back.

I must say the cuticle oil in a pen idea is very creative and unique. It looks like a marker and has a felt tip like a marker.

At first, when I saw it, I didn't feel like it would do much, and frankly, I wasn't really sold on the whole felt tip cuticle pen thing but still, it was a $, and I wanted to give it a try. The felt tip, however, is what makes the application easy and precise, and it can also be used as a cuticle pusher. It's easy to get it into all the cracks and hollows. It's also very convenient to use on the nails. The tip is a little hard when you first use it but it gets better with usage and you do not have to press it hard to get the oil out so it's not rough on your cuticles. I have been using it for 3 weeks now and it seriously reduced my habit of cuticle picking from 3 times a week to once in 3 weeks. Now it's definitely no miracle worker but it does keep my cuticles from drying and flaking when used continuously, like at least 2-3 times a day. Also, they are right about it being quick-dry and with no mess. It gets absorbed fast and it doesn't feel greasy at all. It also doesn't have any significant scent. And what's more, it's very convenient to carry it around in your purse and use it wherever and whenever possible.

I feel good knowing that it has all the good and nutritious stuff like Almond, Avocado oils, Grape Seed Oil, Vitamins E, A, and C, Pro-Vitamin B5, and Aloe. My nails/cuticles are definitely looking better. I can't really think of any major issues I had with this product and considering it's only a dollar it's a pretty good product.

I recommend this to anyone facing dry cuticle problems like me and who needs a quick fix that doesn't cost much. You should definitely give this a try. This is my first cuticle pen, actually, this is my first cuticle anything, I never used anything specially for my cuticles before this. I'll repurchase this in case I don't find anything better. I don't know how much product you'll be getting coz it's not mentioned anywhere on the packaging or the product. But I'm sure it should last for a pretty good time. I bought mine on eyeslipsface.com but you can buy ELF products at Target too.

I hope the review helped you in making a choice.
