About Cuticles and Breton Naturals Organic Cuticle Balm:

The purpose of the cuticle is to protect the nail. But if you’re anything like me, you’re constantly washing your hands, which results in dry, brittle cuticles. If you then scrape back your cuticles while they’re dry and hard, you’ll end up with ragged, damaged skin which is ripe for infection. Since high school, I’ve had a bad habit of picking at my cuticles, and I end up with “hang-nails”: nasty, red, inflamed bits of skin on the ragged edge of my cuticles. This sad state of affairs leads to bacterial infection, swelling and pain! Not good! The solution is simple: moisturize your cuticles regularly and especially after washing your hands, doing dishes, immersing your fingers in harsh cleaning chemicals (I know I should wear rubber gloves …) Breton Naturals Organic Cuticle Balm contains rich, nourishing, natural ingredients that will soften your cuticles and help them heal. Beeswax has amazing anti-inflammatory properties, and also forms a water-resistant barrier to help protect your cuticles from drying out, and also from invading bacteria. Virgin coconut oil is packed with fatty acids that provide deep moisturizing benefits to skin. Sweet almond oil has long been known for its moisturizing and skin healing properties, and hemp oil contains essential fatty acids and soothes inflammation. Mango butter is packed with nutrients and vitamins, and is a star when it comes to increasing the elasticity of the skin and making it more supple. Mango butter is especially good at softening and healing the skin of the cuticle. Sweet Orange essential oil is an uplifting scent that is also known for its skin healing properties. It nourishes dry and irritated skin. Sweet Orange is also anti-bacterial. Bitter Orange, also known as Neroli or Orange Blossom, essential oil is anti-fungal, anti-bacterial, cleansing and calming, and also smells amazing! At Breton Naturals, we never use artificial fragrance. You can rest easy in the knowledge that all our scents (and colours) are from 100% natural sources. We hope you enjoy using our cuticle balm; your hands and nails will thank you for it!

All Natural:

Breton Naturals Organic Cuticle Balm is made with all natural ingredients. Our wildflower beeswax is from a Nova Scotia farm, and our traditionally harvested, virgin coconut oil is from a fair trade community source in Ghana, which helps women and children find work and income. Each balm is gently scented with 100% pure essential oils. Hi, my name is Anne and I’m a Master Herbalist and Naturopath. Together with my husband Paul (an engineer and renewable energy specialist) we created Breton Naturals, a 100% off grid company. Our skincare products are handmade in small batches right here in Nova Scotia, using carefully curated formulas and natural ingredients.

A Word about Scent:

If you’re used to the strong (and sometimes overpowering) artificial fragrances in many bath and body lines, you may find Breton Naturals products to have a less obvious aroma. Because we use only 100% pure, natural essential oils and fragrance oil blends to scent our products, the resulting aroma can be quite subtle. The fact is, our fragrances are not only added for their beautiful, natural scent: they are active ingredients in their own right, bringing important therapeutic properties to the product. If you continue to use naturally fragranced products in your skincare regime, eventually your nose will become more discerning, and attuned to the more subtle aromas of pure, natural fragance. We encourage you to give them a try!
