Q. How do you care for annoying hangnails?

A.

The problem has always been that once you have hangnails, the tiny pieces of skin continuously catch on clothing, rip and for most people, it can be incredibly painful. However, Tweezerman (the company that produces great tweezers) has actually devised a tool for this very purpose. It snips the hangnail allowing it to heal faster. Well worth checking out!

*Dry winter weather is the perfect time for hangnails to occur, so be sure to apply lots of handcream on a regular basis.
