That's amazing! I have a terrible habit of picking at my cuticles when I'm stressed, so no matter how long and nice my nails are, the skin around them looks terrible. I did have some luck with Sally Hansen's cuticle Rehab gel - it's so oily that I don't want to touch them, and a friend who borrowed it said it stopped her biting for the same reason. I do it so absent-mindedly that I don't know if your method could work, but I'm going to give it a shot. Also, Better Than Before is great - halfway through it and can't recommend it enough. xx Jessi http://fullofliving.com/
