The Best Cuticle Oils For Strong, Healthy Nails
Getty
By Jennifer Ford · Updated February 12, 2024

The key to having strong and healthy nails is taking care of your cuticles. So, if your nails aren’t living up to their full potential, it may be time to invest in a cuticle oil. These formulas nourish and moisturize your cuticles, preventing them from becoming dry and brittle, and also promote healthy nail growth. Plus, they add a glossy finish to your nails, giving them a salon-quality look at a fraction of the cost.

With so many options available on the market, from easy roll-on applicators to luxurious balms, there’s a cuticle oil out there to suit every preference. Here, I break down the best cuticle oils designed to keep your nails healthy and on point. Find drugstore favorites (we’re looking at you, Sally Hansen) and high-end picks from brands like Deborah Lippmann, Dior, and more below.
