Right hen listen I've been testing this Rimmel Nail Nurse Cuticle Oil for weeks after too many wines and fuck me it's actually decent. For £4.97 from Amazon or Boots it's keeping my ragged cuticles from looking like they've been through a Glasgow winter war zone.

My hands take a pure hammering from constant washing central heating and that pish rain so I gave this vitamin E oil a proper go morning and night. No fancy marketing bollocks just the truth from your mate who's tried every nail treatment going.

Texture and first impressions

The texture is light as anything not that greasy shite that sits on your skin for hours. It sinks in dead quick leaves a wee shine on the nail but nothing sticky and my cuticles felt softer after the first couple uses.

First impressions were aye this is cheap but it works. The quick absorbing formula doesn't leave marks on my phone or clothes which is a godsend when you're rushing about like a mad thing.

Wear and day-to-day use

It wears well even after I've washed my hands twenty times doing the dishes or typing reports. Lasts through the day without disappearing completely and keeps that dry tight feeling at bay.

In proper UK weather with the cold biting your fingers and the heating sucking every drop of moisture this stuff brings lasting hydration. Slap it on before bed and wake up to nails that don't look like they've been chewed by wolves.

Value and who it suits

At £4.97 with a 4.7 star merchant rating and sitting at #7 in nail treatments it's an absolute steal. Beats spending a tenner on posh brands that do the exact same job but with fancier packaging.

Suits busy working-class hands like mine or any lass who's into artificial nails and needs rescue from the damage. Perfect for normal folk who want decent cuticles without the pretentious spa routine shite.

Our verdict

4.5 / 5 Final take

This Rimmel Nail Nurse Cuticle Oil is a cracking wee product that delivers without any nonsense. It softens protects and hydrates just like it says so head over to Rimmel Nail Nurse Cuticle Oil and treat your nails.

Not a miracle cure but for under a fiver it's pure value and I'll be buying it again. Your cuticles will thank you especially in this British weather ya wee legends.
