The first step is to differentiate between the cuticles and the eponychium, as confusion occurs quite often.
IN FACT, WE CALL CUTICLES, THE SMALL DEAD SKINS THAT ARE CLOSED AROUND A NAIL.
These are dead skin that serve as protection for very sensitive parts of the body. As for the eponychium, it is a bead of skin found along the fingernails.
One of the characteristics of cuticles is that it is difficult, if not impossible, to treat them effectively. However, given their protective role for the nails, it is essential not to neglect them. Taking care of it is therefore necessary.
Boxwood sticks are recommended for cuticle care. They have the advantage of being soft enough not to attack the cuticles.
