I LOVE this Sephora Stimulating Lavender Cuticle Oil!

Sephora Stimulating Lavender Cuticle Oil

I first heard about this cuticle oil over on The Beauty of Life. When BeautyChick101 said that she didn't like the smell of lavender, but that she couldn't get enough of it after using this cuticle oil, I knew that I had to try it. And after reading her review, I was fairly certain that this product would not disappoint. (I didn't know there was a person alive that didn't love lavender.)

This little pen size container sells for $12.00 and is perfect for keeping in your purse.  I've only been using it for a few days, but my cuticles are already looking better. My cuticles were dry, dry, dry!  I'm anal about pedicures, but I never get manicures so my cuticles are always in pretty bad shape. This cuticle oil smells so much better than others I've used in the past. (I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I don't run out of this too quickly.)

Lavender has been one of my favorite scents for as long as I can remember! This article has some interesting facts about the healing benefits of lavender.

And while we're talking lavender, these are just a few of my favorite products that also contain the yummy scent.

• Relaxing Lavender Massage Oil from The Body Shop
• Lavender Relaxing Foot Cream from L'Occitane
• Calm to Your Senses Lavender/Vanilla Body Souffle from Origins
• Lavender Incense from L'Occitane. (And yes, I'm still made at you, L'Occitane for discontinuing the Lavender/Amber Incense.)

Oh, did I mention that I love lavender? If you're lucky, BigSis, I'll let ya try my cuticle oil when you're here!

Note added 5/27/2012: Could it be true that Sephora doesn't make this oil any longer? We can't find it on Sephora's web site. They have an original Cuticle Care Pen and a eucalyptus version of it, but the lavender is nowhere to be seen! If you find it, please let us know!
