This cuticle cream is amazing however it's a gel more than a cream looks just like Vaseline, anyway my cuticles were in rough shape splitting  and bleeding ,and very dry and painful. The first time I used this I applied  to every finger and covered with spa gloves ,when I woke up the next morning they were all healed up except for one finger that was in really rough shape  but after the second night it was healed .Doesn't surprise me because I have had good results with Mario Badescu products and this is one I will always need especially since my hands are always in water and dry out very fast. I would definitely  recommend this to anyone looking for a fast repair.
