In a beauty landscape filled with sharp metal tools, aggressive techniques, and salon standards that often overlook long-term nail health, Cuticle-B-Gone stands out as a quiet revolution. It’s more than a product — it’s a rethinking of how we care for our hands, and a reminder that self-care should never come at the cost of our well-being.
Cuticle-B-Gone is a revolutionary nail care tool that preserves the health of your nails while creating a beautifully manicured look. Born from frustration with the overabundance of damaging nail instruments, it was designed with one mission: there is a better, safer way to manicure your nails.
Traditional cuticle cutting, though normalized, creates lasting damage. It weakens the nail bed, disrupts natural protection, and opens the door to infections—a cycle of destructive care that forces people to return to harsh tools again and again. It’s also illegal to have your cuticles cut in a salon in several states. Cuticle-B-Gone breaks that cycle.
Instead of cutting, it gently buffs away dead skin and hangnails, preserving both the health and the beauty of the nail bed. The result is the same polished, clean, professional look people want, only achieved safely, effectively, and with a philosophy rooted in gentleness.
A Tool Born from Love, Necessity, and Women-Led Innovation
Cuticle-B-Gone was invented — and is now helmed — by an all-female executive team with a deep understanding of women’s health, family, and self-care. At the center of this story is Barbara Gomes, the inventor of Cuticle-B-Gone, whose journey began not in a salon but at home, caring for the people she loves.
Barbara’s mother, a breast cancer survivor, was left with a lymphedema arm that put her at a high risk for infections. Cutting her mother’s cuticles or hangnails was simply not an option — even the smallest nick had the potential to become dangerous. So Barbara did the only thing she could: she filed them.
Filing helped, but traditional nail files were never designed for cuticles. They were too harsh, too rigid, and inevitably damaged the nails in the process.
Years later, when Barbara became a grandmother, she found herself in the same situation again. Cutting tiny children’s cuticles wasn’t safe, so she returned to filing—and discovered something unexpected: filing her own cuticles created a smoother, longer-lasting manicure.
But once again, the damage caused by traditional files made the process imperfect.
After years of this cycle — the same frustration, the same limitations — Barbara had her breakthrough. She didn’t need better files. She needed an entirely new tool. Something designed specifically for delicate cuticle skin, something gentle, safe, intuitive, and effective.
That spark became Cuticle-B-Gone, a simple yet groundbreaking invention that is now poised to reshape the nail care industry.
A New Era of Nail Care: Safety, Gentleness, and Ownership
Cuticle-B-Gone embodies a movement: one that encourages people to take ownership of their self-care with tools designed to support them, not harm them. It replaces pain with ease, risk with security, and outdated habits with mindful, healthy rituals.
Where salons and old-school tools have relied on cutting, a practice many still assume is necessary, Cuticle-B-Gone offers a smarter alternative. One that respects the body’s natural structure. One that prioritizes safety without sacrificing beauty. One that empowers users to care for themselves confidently.
