When it comes to self-care, hands often get overlooked—but not in my routine! With how dry my hands get, especially at night, I've come to rely on a few tried-and-true handcare products to keep them hydrated, smooth, and healthy.

Here are two essentials I keep reaching for that do wonders for both my hands and nail cuticles!

💧 The Ordinary – 100% Organic Cold-Pressed Moroccan Argan Oil

This multitasking oil is a small bottle with big results. I mainly use it on my cuticles, and over time, I’ve noticed my nails feel stronger and look healthier. The lightweight texture makes it easy to use nightly without feeling greasy, and I started seeing changes within just a few days of consistent use.

What’s even better? It works beautifully beyond handcare—I've used it on dry patches of skin and even as a pre-wash treatment for my hair. The size is perfect, too—small enough to use up quickly before it loses freshness. It's one of those products I always go back to.

🌸 Soap & Glory – Original Pink Hand Food Hand Balm

For a deeper dose of hydration, this balm is my nighttime hand savior. It has a richer texture than a regular cream, but it sinks in well and leaves my skin feeling silky, not sticky. On especially dry nights, I layer it on thick and pop on some cotton gloves to lock in moisture while I sleep. The soft floral scent with rose and bergamot is a nice bonus—it pairs wonderfully with the argan oil for an indulgent handcare ritual.

A good handcare routine doesn’t have to be complicated. With just a couple of reliable products, you can keep your hands soft, nails strong, and cuticles nourished!
