Another (Secret) Weapon (well not so secret anymore)... Octava Beauty Serum for the cuticles!

We love hearing from our community!   Your feedback and discoveries about our products inspire us, and we’re always excited to share new ways to use them. After all, skincare isn’t one-size-fits-all, and sometimes, the best beauty hacks come straight from you.

Recently, one of our customers from the Octava Community reached out with an unexpected but exciting find. Like many of us, she has a demanding job and sometimes experiences stress. Instead of reaching for coffee or taking deep breaths, her habit was biting her nails; a struggle so many can relate to. Over time, this took a toll on her cuticles, leaving them dry, cracked, and unhealthy.

She had been searching for a solution for years, trying everything to restore her cuticles. Then, she had an ah ha moment: she decided to apply Octava Beauty Serum (yes, our face serum) to her cuticles. The result? Softer, healthier cuticles that looked and felt amazing!

Why It Works
While Octava Beauty Serum is primarily designed for your face, it’s packed with nourishing ingredients that deeply hydrate and repair skin making it a perfect cuticle treatment too! Just like your skin, your cuticles need moisture and protection. When they’re dry and neglected, they can crack, leading to discomfort and sometimes, even infections.

Most of us don’t think about cuticle care until we get a manicure. But your cuticles serve an important purpose, they protect the base of your nails, much like your gums protect your teeth. Keeping your gums healthy helps maintain strong teeth, and caring for your cuticles leads to stronger, healthier nails.  For more information on cuticle care Heathline has an informative article.

So, if your cuticles are dry, peeling, or in need of some extra love, here’s an easy way to incorporate Octava Beauty Serum into your routine:

• Apply a Drop: Use a tiny amount of serum (one or two drops --- a little goes a long way!) and gently massage it into your cuticles.
• Let It Absorb: Give it a minute to soak in—no need to rinse.
• Repeat Daily: For best results, apply before bed or after washing your hands.

This simple step can help keep your cuticles soft, smooth, and hydrated. No more dry, ragged edges or painful hangnails!

The Octava Takeaway...
