  • I would love to see a video on nail care. Your videos are very helpful. They are clear, concise, and informative.
  • I'm 45 and have been managing hand and body eczema my entire life. No one talks about it like this - including the dermatologists I've seen over the years. Excellent video. Thank you!
  • @munchems
    I started getting dermatitis on my hands AFTER I started using gloves. And it’s not an allergic reaction because I’ve tried them all, nitrile, latex, vinyl..you name it.
  • You're a first person who talks about the whole hand care routine that is needed in case of super dry skin. It took me years and laugh of others to figure things out by myself and start using gloves for everything. I'm glad others can find out what to do now much quicker. Thank you.
  • @nancyh.7420
    CeraVe ointment is very helpful for dry cuticles (and lips). The added ceramides really help.
  • @sharotej
    I like a lot of the Aveeno hand creams, especially the ones for eczema. Gold Bond Pure Moisture is also nice for hands. Yes, please do a nails video!
  • @mialeeper
    Yes, nail care video please! Thank you for all the helpful info!
  • A video on nailcare would be great and helpful! This video is helpful as well. I’m a nurse, constantly washing my hands. I’m constantly applying hand cream and my nails don’t look good. My cuticles are very dry.
  • @jbaranowski31
    I would absolutely love a nail care video. Thank you for all the work you do!! :)
  • @estheroh3675
    Yes please for the nail care video! I’ve struggled with picking my cuticles all my life and it’s left my nails ridged
  • @Bsquared7317
    Great and original content on this video. I found this very helpful and will change the way I take care of my hands. Yes I would appreciate an additional video about nail care.
  • @msaditu
    I have hand dermatitis so I wish I could like this video 1000 times. Very helpful.
  • Yes definitely would like a nail care related video. I think it might go "hand- in-hand" with this video. My nails are a mess in the winter. So moisture, I'm guessing, is the issue.
  • Yes, a nail care video would be useful! By the way, Ana from Salon Life gives excellent advice on how to care for proximal nail fold skin that sticks to your cuticle and nail plate while they grow.
  • Thank you for the tips. I use 2-3 drops of vegetable glycerin on my wet hands, after washing. It moisturizes and heals them when they're dry, red, and cracking.
  • @brittneyr8590
    This is so helpful! I’d love to see a video on nail care—and even at-home pedicure tips, like how often to exfoliate, are Ped-Eggs safe to use, how often to moisturize feet (especially in the summer—I don’t love really creamy formulas when I’m wearing sandals), etc. Thanks so much! 😊
  • @Angysplanet
    A video on nail care!! Yes! I have been doing the Superglue tip for a while now and swear by it. I work in a retail setting and always use hand sanitizer and touch cardboard boxes so I get lots of fissures that are incredibly painful. I wear cotton gloves at night and my favorite hand cream is a glycerin-based one. Fenty Skin makes one but it is expensive. I found one from my dermatologist for 10 bucks. Going to look for that Gloves in a bottle. Thanks for all the fantastic tips!
  • I started using Korean hand masks with my hand care routine. And wow in a few weeks my hands are soft and look younger again. I’m over 50 thank you for the information Doctor Sam
