"  If your nail polish chips asap after a mani or if the tips of your nails peel, you&amp;#039;re going to want to keep reading. I recently learned a killer nail tip from Cosmo&amp;#039;s deputy beauty editor Jessica Matlin, who got the tip from Niki Chi, lead manicurist for Spa Chicks On The Go. Niki told Jess that if you coat your entire nail (not just the cuticle) with cuticle oil, it will help increase the health and strength of your nail, causing it to peel less and your polish to stay on longer. That&amp;#039;s all I needed to hear. I immediately got my hands on the Londontown Kur Nourishing Cuticle Oil, $25, londontownusa.com, which is pumped full of essential oils and vitamins (not to mention it&amp;#039;s vegan, gluten- and cruelty-free), and started dousing my nails. Note: Any cuticle oil will work, but this one isn&amp;#039;t greasy and absorbs quickly. And since I&amp;#039;ve learned this little nugget of information (thanks, Jess!), applying cuticle oil has become part of my daily beauty routine. I have a bottle sitting at my desk and one next to my bed, and I paint it on quickly whenever I get the chance. The cool thing is that you can paint cuticle oil on over your polished tips and the formula will penetrate the lacquer. So there doesn&amp;#039;t need to be this whole production of taking off your polish and then applying the oil, etc. Love that. Just curious, have I converted you to be a cuticle oil user or what? If you start swiping it on religiously like I have, let me know how you like it.  Photo: Courtesy Image Follow Carly Cardellino on Facebook and Twitter. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
