GERMANIKURE Clear Glass Cuticle Stick in Leather Sleeve - Ethically Made in Czech Republic - Cuticle Pusher & Remover, Callous & Dry Skin Fingertip File, Nail Shaper

Started washing my hands a lot more in January — while my general health is better for it, my hands are less so. Got into cuticle and nail care to address some of the issues and wanted items that would be easy to clean. Hadn’t had much luck with metal files and generally dislike the disposable ones.Trimming away skin seemed to only encourage further callousing, so something that’s gentle enough to be used next to or against live tissue while being able to remove . . a hangnail? N e a t .To quote Kenji— Guys, Gals & Non-binary pals: you need this. It files the free nail edge, hard bits of dead tissue that like to snag ( such as hangnails both above the nail fold and lateral ) underneath the free edge where weird bits of painful callous like to build up for me, takes off invisible cuticle that attaches and grows down the nail plate ( cuticle death grip ) and helps keep the proximal nail fold well manicured.Gosh, I know it’s “just” a glass file but it does such a good job in its application. I was using it every single day, for just a few minutes at a time. Followed up with cuticle oil and a lot of my nail and cuticle issues slowly went away, especially with consistency. Fingernails, toenails — my husband’s nails.Notice the “was”? ): The unthinkable happened, and I dropped it last night. Fortunately, it didn’t shatter. However, both ends of the cuticle stick somehow got damaged in the fall. It’s not TECHNICALLY unusable — but each end now has an incredibly sharp edge, and I went from being able to file by feel while doing something else ( like watching a show ) to having to focus a great deal on which portion of the file is in contact with my skin or nail. Huge, huge, hUGE sadness.Will keep using for now, albeit a bit less, until I can replace this one. Most likely will get more than one, because I’m sure I’ll drop it again. Am the butterfingers of the house.Love this funky little dude. Easy to use, clean, store, travel with, etc. Cannot recommend enough. You should get one. And probably another for anyone else in your life that you care about. (:

This is the at home manicure tool I didn’t know I needed. I’ve been using the wood and metal cuticle sticks and thought I’d give this a try.It’s amazing, pushes the cuticles down with little effort, no pulling or catching on the skin and damaging the cuticle. That’s because it gently files as it pushes. I was able to push with the flat end. Then, flip it over so the flat end is up and use the rounded end to file the roughness off the newly revealed nail bed. Then, using the pointy end further push the cuticle down and finely detail the nail bed and sides of the nail. My nails and cuticles look amazing, this thing really took away the tiniest bits of skin and nail. It was very soothing to groom the nails, it’s addictive using this tool to get every little bit. The pointy end gets the little bits and tiny details a glass nail file can’t reach! Love it. I can’t wait to try the glass nail file from this company. Never going back to the wood or metal sticks ever again, this thing is a game changer.

It took a while to arrive and I almost forgot about it but I tried it out right away and this glass cuticle stick is everything. I used it to both push back my cuticles and to correct mistakes from my nail polish flooding my cuticles. The sharp tip is perfect for getting into the little crevices and getting the debris out from under your nails while the cuticle pusher side is perfectly shaped to help clean up the side edges of the skin. Best of all, I can use acetone to get off any nail polish and simply rinse it out to be reused again. It also comes in its own handy cardboard tube which I use to store it in. I am thinking of getting more of these nifty little things. All the reviews are correct. It’s such a simple concept but so multipurpose.

This works so much better than other styles/materials I have tried. My cuticles are a disaster, basically, and this very effectively and efficiently pushes them back AND scrapes remnants off of my nail bed. The pointy end is fantastic for cleaning under nails. This is now a permanent tool for my manicure kit. Where has this been all my life?!

I bought this mostly for use on my toenails. As I’ve aged, the cuticles and skin around my toenails seems to have gotten thicker, dryer, and tougher to push back from the nail - despite moisturizing.The pointed end does a really good job getting along the sides and the tapered end does a great job pushing the cuticle and removing the remnants.I always reserve a 5th star from my reviews until I know how something’s going to hold up. In this case, I’ll be waiting to make sure this doesn’t lose its “grit”. After see so many good reviews, I doubt that will happen. If I drop it? - that’ll be on me😁

It didn't come in a nice little leather carrying pouch like in the user/product video, but I love this stick.It works so well at gently filing my cuticle and doesn't feel abrasive like metal or drill e-files. It feels perfectly safe to use despite being glass. The two different ends are perfect for getting in every crevice around the cuticle 💅It seems like it will last a long time, too. I don't go anywhere without it. I keep it in my little makeup pouch and take it with me. It's kind of addictive lol.

I was hesitant on buying this stick for $12. But it worked great. Got deep into my cuticle without irritating it & cleaned the skin that’s hard to reach. Gave my nail beds a cleaner surface to do my nails so there wasn’t any lumps or bumps long the cuticle line for my polish. Great little stickThe tip didn’t seem as pointy. Not sure if it was chipped during shipping. I expected it to be a little more pointy
