I have always picked at this skin at the side of my nails and whenever there is a rough edge its very tempting. Recently had my first manicure and have managed not to pick but its only a couple of weeks and already they are getting ragged and hard again.

I have tried using a lot of hand cream etc. but it doesnt seem to help. Can anyone recommend a good cuticle oil or something to stop that hard skin around nails as once i find an edge there is no stopping me, sounds disgusting and it is so would love some help please? The manicure has helped and i would like to try and make them look better. I think a pen type product would be easier and more likely to do it regularly.

Mylee do a roll-on pen which I find quite handy to take around with me.

I've got the Essie one at the moment which I quite like, also liked the Opi one in the pen shaped tube. Love the gooey Dior stuff but only apply at bedtime as it's sticky.
