My fingernails and cuticles are hella fucked up. 😩
Like my nails aren’t smooth. They’re like… Low poly models with visible faces.
I’m not going to tell you how long I looked at this, expecting to find loss or Saddam Hussein.
My first thought was “holding a dick” then I went to these memes
I don’t know - those fingernails and cuticles look way better than mine!
You need something with hydrocortisone to soothe. Not just a lotion
I can just feel this image. This is just the worst thing I could have seen tonight. Good job.
You can always trust SatansMaggotyCumFart to chime in with the wholesome memes.
I’m starting to remember his name and I don’t want to 🤢
Please cease existing.
Kind of reminds me of peeling a banana.
Wait until this happens to your foreskin.
If having lotion in your hands makes you uncomfortable, try just dabbing a tiny bit on the the backs of your fingernails and rubbing them against each other to spread it only on your cuticles. No slimy fingerpads or palms, and it really helps.
Problem solved
Years back I was briefly into creepypastas. One I read was a guy who had a habit of chewing his nails and that people around him always made a big deal about it but he thought they were overreacting. At the end it was revealed that he had long ago chewed away his fingernails and was now chewing through his actual fingers without realizing it. As a result he was institutionalized for his delusions, I think.
This picture makes me think of that. Thanks, I guess.
Where we’re going we won’t need fingernails
Thanks Mr Dinosaur man!
Where is @FistingEnthusiast@lemmynsfw.com when you need him?
Always kept short and clean
When you refuse to give answers when tortured! You clearly are no rat. 🙌
No.
The perfect hand doesn’t ex-
I find just snipping off the skin tags with clippers keeps it from going too far.
The problem is they’re never around when I need them 🙃

Guys, they got Mouselemming
Augh, I’m okay but so embarrassed!
Just gonna add, you can use a stick of lip balm on cuticles!
Why did I get in this thread 😨
Mom turned me onto corn husker’s oil. Figured since we shared genes, and it worked for her, might as well. Shit is the bomb. Tiny dab’ll do ya, doesn’t leave your hands greasy, dries fast, works fast, cheap, all that.
My fingertips split in cold and dry air. Apparently I got a weird gene from great grandma, never met another person with the problem. Tiny crack across the tip, skin dies and turns hard, splits deeper, rinse and repeat. And the pain is stunning, like having an infected splinter stuck in your fingertip. Got that shit this year working outside in February and into March. Only took a few nights of using corn husker’s oil, GTG.
My Grannie told me to lotion up and wear rubber gloves while sleeping to help my dry hands. I only did once, but I am now adamant about keeping my hands moisturized and covered during the winter work weeks. My job is messy so I don’t mind at all.
I will keep that oil in mind if it ever gets out of hand again.
This appears to be a lack of melatonin. When you get sun, there should at least be some pigment.
Melatonin is what makes people sleep
You’re thinking of melinoma
Melinoma is what makes people have cancer
You’re thinking of melancholyMelancholy is what Hamlet had, I think you mean Melania
Melania is what turns people orange. You’re thinking of mitochondria
Mitochondria is the power house of the cell, you’re thinking of Mephistopheles
Mephistopheles is Hell’s Messenger, you’re thinking of malaria
Malaria is a mosquito-borne pathogen. You’re thinking of maltodextrin.
Mitochondria are the powerhouses of the cell.
You’re thinking of The Moops.
Guys clearly you’re all thinking of the pasta sauce, Marijuana
Yore thinking of a feeling of sadness, I think the word you’re thinking of is Melania.

Stop eating your cuticles, lol
Can’t stop. Won’t stop.
Moisturizer
Get a brand called Cetaphil and use it on your hands every day or whenever they dry out.
I’ve worked in construction and I like working as a mechanic in my own vehicles … it means my bare hands get exposed to a lot of dirt, sand, mud, metal, oil and chemicals … which means I have to wash with lots of soap and chemicals. In the winter it’s worse in the dry cold air.
So my hands get dry chapped and even cracked and start bleeding. My skin is so cracked and broken now that I can no longer use my finger print ID on my phone. I’ve tried resetting it multiple times but a new crack forms and then no longer works again.
For years I put up with it and pretended I was a man that didn’t need help … but I got sick and tired of it and started using moisturizer and I really don’t care what anyone says about it.
I still get dry cracked skin but not as often and not as severe.
Cerave is even better than O’Keefes
Pain relief O’Keefes. Stuff is miracles.
Am electrician, I carve my hands up all the time.
I tried a bunch of them including O’Keefes but I’m allergic to something and I’ve had the skin on my hands break out in blisters. I can abuse them with motor oil and auto chemicals but if some weird skin lotion ingredient gets into a crack in my skin, my skin literally just starts to break down for some reason.
Cetaphil is the only one I’ve found that doesn’t have any weird ingredients … it was recommended by the dermatologist that treated me during a really bad break out. Haven’t had a problem since.
Ah man that must suck. At least you found something!
I swear by O’Keefes “working hands”
It’s one of the few moisturisers that doesn’t leave my hands feeling greasy
No.
