Cuti

Oh hai! We’re Cuti. Two pals just geeking out over our obsession of fancy fingers and healthy nails.

After some ongoing struggles finding our usual go-to cuticle oil brand, we spent aaaaages chatting about what could be if we used a bit of good old Kiwi ingenuity to just make our own.

We got Tessa’s nail tech (hi Chantelle) onboard, bombarding her with no less than 349,394 questions about what she looks for in a good cuticle oil - then we decided to get this show on the road - creating a cuticle oil that ticked all of our boxes.
