5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing stuff - simply removes cuticles in next to no time in the comfort of your own home!

E. · 15 April 2018

Amazing stuff - truly wish that I had discovered this product sooner!Having read past reviews I took on board the suggestion to leave on nails for 1 minute. I put a couple of drops on each nail (one hand at a time), and to be honest by the time I finished each hand the solution had been on the last couple of nails for around 2-3 minutes with no ill effect!This stuff simply dissolves the cuticles before your very eyes. Quick push back with cuticle stick, a trim with cuticle scissors, rinse in a bowl of warm water and gentle sweep with a nail brush, you’re left with a salon beautiful nails. Saving yourself £££’s in the process 👍I always take into consideration reviews left by others when choosing items. Please tick the ‘helpful’ button if you’ve found my review helpful. Thanks 😃

4.0 out of 5 stars Tried for the first time

D. · 9 September 2023

Background.. I've been a prolific nail biter for years, at one point years ago my nails were in a really horrible state and I went for a few manicures to get them back to some kind of normality and after that I started taking care of my nails and haven't looked back. Those manicures are where I first had my cuticles cut back. I had also come to realise that I have flimsy and easily broken nails, and if not looked after they would snag /break /cuticles would crack all of which would prompt me to start biting. I've found filing into certain shapes adds strength, and painting also protects them more compared to bare nails so I now do my nails regularly and I haven't been for a manicure in years. One problem I have is my cuticles; I am not lucky enough to have nice even growing moisturised cuticles. The first time they were cut back I was amazed, I didn't know back then that was even a thing and what a difference it makes to the nails especially with small nails beds and also how much more level and neater the cuticle can be. I bought cutters and after some painful experiences got into using them, but still after using them for years it's so easy to clip a little too much and break the skin and it's sooo painful, alongside the fact that it you still have to deal with the invisible cuticle separately (the thin skin part that's stuck onto the nail) and it can be difficult to clip evenly along the whole cuticle and leave it perfect plus I hate how they grow after cutting they look messy, you want to clip them again and it's too soon. This stopped me cutting for a long time, and recently they looked like they were taking over again and very uneven so I started looking for alternatives to cutting and I find liquid cuticle remover! Who knew! Everyone but me it seems. I looked up popular products and reviews and settled on this Sally Hansen one due to reviews, ease of use and price. One issue was that there was a label over the back of the box hiding the English instructions, but I looked online. You're supposed to push back cuticles and put it on for 15 seconds, but a video found online said most people say this isn't long enough and to keep it on up to 3mins..well I went in between and kept on 1.5 mins, wiped off with acetone and then washed hands well with soapy water, followed by some cuticle oil. It wasn't a wham-bam-thank-you-mam for my cuticles, but it did remove nearly all of the invisible cuticle which I was happy with as that is very hard to get off otherwise, it also took any roughness away from the edge of the cuticle. I had a slightly dry thicker edge on some so I decided to cut a very minimal amount, the entire process didn't take long and gave an excellent result and even though I did cut a little here and there I don't think I cut enough to have them grow back badly, and I think if I keep using this product regularly now it will keep the edge smooth and might mean I will rarely have to cut them again 👍. I also used this on my toenails, which had much shorter tighter cuticles, I managed to push back the cuticle a little bit on the big toes but it wasn't easy so I didn't bother pushing any others back and the product still had an impact, it levelled the cuticles out well taking away unevenness, and removed the invisible cuticle. I'm really very happy with the result overall, and the result on fingernails which had the thicker, more overgrown cuticles even though on this occasion some cutting was still required. The bottle has a pointed applicator and product comes out easily but not too easily - you have control of how much you use, and can target to the cuticle well. I paid just over a fiver and thought this was an excellent price. I will 100% buy this again and would recommend it

5.0 out of 5 stars Surprisingly Effective – But Use It Right 💅

B.T. · 21 July 2025

I didn’t expect much from a cuticle remover in a little squeeze tube, but this one genuinely works if you use it properly.✅ What’s Great:⏱️ It works fastYou really only need about 15 seconds. Any longer and it might start to feel tingly or harsh — so follow the instructions carefully.💧 Gel consistency is easy to controlYou won’t waste product, and it doesn’t drip everywhere like thinner liquids. A little goes a long way.💥 Actually softens stubborn cuticlesIt melts away the dry, stuck bits that are usually impossible to push back. Especially helpful if you haven’t done your nails in a while.💸 Very affordable and lasts foreverYou’re only using a tiny amount each time, so one tube will last months — even with weekly use.⚠️ A Few Tips Before You Use It:• Don’t leave it on too long — this stuff is strong.• Wash your hands well afterward – it’s still a chemical, so don’t let it sit on your skin.• Not for broken skin – if you have any cuts or hangnails, it will sting like mad.

This is great at removing your cuticles but since using this my nails have been awful so when you use this try not to get it on your nail just your cuticle

5.0 out of 5 stars I’m genuinely impressed!

This cuticle remover is brilliant, I’m genuinely impressed! It works super quickly to soften cuticles, and it’s really gentle on the skin. No stinging, no dryness, just smooth, easy cuticle removal without any fuss.Since I’ve started using it, my nails look so much neater and more polished, and it really helps create a smooth base for manicures. You only need a tiny amount each time, so the bottle lasts ages too.If you’re into doing your own nails at home, I’d definitely recommend giving this a try. It makes the whole process so much easier and gives professional-looking results.

I’ve been using the Sally Hansen Instant Cuticle Remover for a few weeks now, and it’s quickly become a staple in my nail care routine. It’s super easy to use, just apply a small amount around the cuticles, wait about 15 seconds, and gently push them back. The gel softens cuticles fast and makes cleanup a breeze. What I love most is how professional my nails look afterward, without having to go to the salon. It also works great for calluses if you leave it on a bit longer. The bottle lasts a long time, and the price is very reasonable for the quality.Highly recommend to anyone looking to keep their nails neat and healthy with minimal effort. Definitely a 5-star product!
