Prunus Armeniaca Kernel Oil
Nail & Cuticle Oil Pen
3x 6mL
A fast-dry nail oil in a twist-up pen.
It feeds the nail and surrounding skin with nourishing apricot kernel oil and antioxidant vitamin E, helping keep them hydrated, flexible and protected from the water and chemicals that dry nails out. The twist-up pen dispenses just the right amount onto a fine brush, so application is precise and clean, whether it lives in your bag, on your desk or by the bed.
Please note, this is not the same formulation as the Self Love Oil.

FAQs
A dry oil is a lightweight oil that absorbs quickly and leaves no greasy residue or shine. You get all the nourishment of a nail oil without the slick fingers or the wait, so you can use it any time, even mid-day, and get straight back to what you were doing.
The cuticles and the skin around your nails are some of the first places to show dryness, and dry cuticles crack, peel and catch. Keeping them nourished, and the nail itself hydrated, is what keeps nails flexible rather than brittle. It is the simplest daily habit for healthier-looking nails.
Both. Swipe it around the cuticle and across the whole nail. The cuticle is where the skin needs nourishing, but the nail plate benefits just as much, because that is where hydration is held or lost.
It's a different formula, not Self Love Oil in a pen. Both nourish nails and cuticles, but they're built to behave differently once they're on the nail.
Self Love Oil is 100% natural, a blend of seven plant oils in a dropper bottle. Plant oils are large molecules, so part of the blend absorbs and the rest stays on the surface as a barrier against water and drying chemicals like polish remover.
The Oil Pen is a dry oil, built on much lighter, smaller oils alongside apricot kernel oil and vitamin E. It absorbs faster and leaves nothing on the surface to wipe away, so you can swipe it on at your desk and carry straight on. The twist-up brush means no dropper and no mess.
Plenty of customers keep both going: the pen in a bag or on a desk, Self Love Oil at home.
Daily, and as often as you like beyond that. Reapply whenever your nails feel dry, especially after washing your hands, which is when nails lose the most moisture. Because it is a dry oil, topping up never leaves your hands greasy.
We will be honest here, because a lot of claims overstate this. Oil does not speed up how fast your nails grow. What it does is keep them hydrated and flexible, so they break, split and peel less. That means you hold onto length instead of losing it, and nails look healthier as they grow.
Yes. Used daily, it helps keep enhancements flexible and can prolong their wear by reducing lifting at the edges. It works just as well on bare natural nails.
No. Apply it after your polish has fully dried, or to bare nails, never underneath. Oil under polish stops the polish adhering properly, so it lifts and chips. Think of it as the last step, not the first.
No. This is a dry oil, so it absorbs in seconds and leaves no greasy film or shine, which is exactly what sets it apart from a traditional cuticle oil.
Yes. Every Kester Black product is vegan and cruelty-free.
