In a toenail service, a cuticle remover is a product or solution used to soften and remove the cuticles around the toenails. The cuticles are the thin layer of skin that protects the nail matrix and helps to prevent infections. The cuticle remover is applied to the cuticles, usually after soaking the feet in warm water, and left to sit for a few minutes. Then, a cuticle pusher or tool is used to gently push back and remove the softened cuticles, leading to a cleaner and more polished appearance of the toenails.
