We all treasure our Saturday mornings, but why? So we can accomplish all the things on our "to do" list that we can't seem to fit into the week? I vote you take a few minutes for you each Saturday to refresh yourself. In between the banking, grocery shopping, cleaning, and cooking dont forget to stop for you. Everyone deserves a little "me time" and for some reason it can be very easily forgotten. This Saturday I decided my "me time" would be spent giving myself a manicure. While this may seem like no big deal to most, if your a nail biter like myself a manicure represents trying to change for the better. It's something I rarely take the time to do anymore... probably because I'm always finding something to clean or cook.
So here's my Saturday tip: keep your cuticle cream near your toothpaste. Every time you brush your teeth apply some cuticle cream to your fingertips and rub in. Nail biters tend to bite the skin around the nail because it's dry and scratchy - only making matters worse because when the skin grows back in it will still be dry and scratchy. If your cuticle cream is next to your toothpaste, you will see it and remember to use it several times a day, eventually leading to softer fingertips that hopefully you will be less likely to bite.
I prefer Burt's Bee's Lemon Butter Cuticle Cream. It has a refreshing scent and does a great job at conditioning my tips.
