Review 1 for Essential Cuticle Oil
My Nails Grew Back!!!
-05.11.13
Quick Take: cuticle and nail help!
I was another victim of nail ruin after removing acrylic nails. The damage was truly horrible, and after 4 months, my nails were still a mess. I bought this just to try and keep my cuticles nice (I'd given up on my nails), but after a week, I noticed not only were my cuticles nice, but my nails were starting to return!!!
I agree with others about not liking the smell much, but the results were worth it. It seemed to come out slower when I first used the bottle, and now that I'm over 3/4 done, the top seems to let more oil seep out from the roller-ball. Not excited with the price, but I'll keep buying it.
Oh, I forgot! My nails still aren't very strong, but I'm hoping that with daily use, my nails will continue growing smooth and will strengthen over time. I'll have to keep my eyes open for the strengthener another review mentioned. I definitely recommend buying!!!

Review 2 for Essential Cuticle Oil
It's working!
-05.10.13
Quick Take: effective, expensive
Decided during a 15% discount period to shell out the $$ for this to replace a drugstore cuticle cream that really wasn't working. This stuff is pricey, but it does work. I like the smell -- I don't see what's so offensive about it to some other reviewers. The roller dispenser works great and I anticipate this bottle will last for a very long time.

Review 3 for Essential Cuticle Oil
Definitely Essential
-03.05.13
I love this cuticle oil, but more importantly I love the easy application! The roller ball makes it easy to manage and make sure you don't get too much on your nails. I've been using it every night for about four weeks now, and it's keeping my cuticles looking healthy and my manicures nice and shiny.

Review 4 for Essential Cuticle Oil
smells like lemon pledge
-02.21.13
This reminds me of the above mentioned spray my mom used back in the day. Not bad for winter dry cuticle skin. May be better for spring. Agreed that this leaves a glossy finish and really convenient for the office (so dry). But honestly just fair-average 2-3 stars. Gotta play with this more and again spring may be a better season for this rollerball oil.

saved my nails
-12.28.12
Quick Take: a miracle
I had acrylic tips for years and finally decided the pain, time, and cost were not worth it any more. I bought one of these for my purse, one for my desk and work and one for my bed side table. It took about a month, but my nails are close to normal now. I am VERY interested in the new product for strengthening nails but will wait for reviews because it's expensive!

Review 12 for Essential Cuticle Oil
these were gifts
-12.09.12
so I haven't tried it...came highly recommended by the beauty consultant at Sephora store and she said Julep is a great brand (also their nail polishes)....I liked that it hs the roller ball to keep your fingers from getting so oily when applying.
