I do stained glass as a hobby, and it is incredibly hard on my hands. I call them my "Man Hands". My cuticles often look so beat up and awful I'm ashamed of them. Out of desperation, I recently bought this from the local drugstore. I couldn't believe the difference after using it for just four or five days. I wish I could post before and after pictures, because before they were cracked, peeling, and bleeding, and now they look normal and healthy. Plus the gel has a nice citrus-y scent, and dries quickly. I highly recommend this product.

Just when I thought I was going to die of terminal hangnails, I discovered this VitaSurge Cuticle Gel. My cuticles showed immediate improvement after just one use and after a week, they were smooth and healthy looking. The gel absorbs quickly and is non greasy.
I'm a professional gardener and my hands take a lot of punishment from dirt and water. No matter how diligently I tried to be kind to my hands with creams, oils and thick grease such as shea butter, lanolin and vaseline, my cuticles were always dry and ragged. The VitaSurge Gel smoothed my cuticles better than any of the special cuticle massage creams I've ever used. I like to apply it first, then use a good moisturizing lotion, followed by a layer of shea butter to seal the moisture in.

I have only used this for a couple or three days. I bought it at the store, but wanted to review online since I just bought a new cuticle oil on Amazon. (Sun Oil)
I have used it a couple or so times a day. I used to bite my nails and when I get stressed I stil pick at my cuticles and I live in a dry climate. It works okay as far as possibly healing my cuticles. Again I haven't used it that long.
However, it is sticky, which was what I first noticed. I would prefer an oil to something sticky. This might have been ignored if it was only the base of my cuticle that needed help, however the sides of my nail beds also get really dry, so the gel gets more near my fingertips which is irritating for it being sticky.
The second thing I noticed is that my cuticles and nails have an orange tint now. (I already have a topcoat on my nails prior to starting this.) But the skin has started to turn orange like the gel and under my nails a little. I think it has mostly tinted the dry skin, but still it looks like I have been eating oranges every day or something. Gross!
Therefore it seems like this one will go in the trash as soon as my new oil arrives later this week. I would rather use something than nothing but I may also toss this and just keep on things with my hand cream.

This product worked great from the 1st application. My only complaint is the applicator, but I just used a different tool to apply the gel & it worked great. Highly recommended for dry cuticles

I was pretty skeptical about this I didn't really see how a gel would noticeably heal by dry and abused cuticles but after the first day I noticed my cuticles looking smoother and less inflamed. I'm pleased, the price was good and it really does seem to work well. As a bonus, it has a pleasant scent and leaves my nail-beds feeling wonderfully moisturized.
If you want your cuticles to look healthier, give this a try.
