hi all when I say I wear gloves to prick out the toms and pot on plants I have allways used surgical gloves that I get from super drug for animals and after that cloth ones for rest and by the way I have soft hands when I worked in steel works and foundry gloves make your hand nice and soft Michael
Here to report I tried 3 tips all together and my nails look better. I bought Crabtree and eve line gardeners hand creme- it's nice but doesn't feel dewey after- just, not dry and hurty!
I put moisturiser under the nails before I put my gardening gloves on , also hand soap- I scraped my nails across damp soap all angles. There WAS dirt under but it pulled out easily and my nails have never looked so clean at the tips!

Used to use a Crabtree and Evelyn gardeners cleanser - but they stopped making it. Will definitely try the occitane version - thanks Yvie
I'll investigate L'occitane and the drop of bleach might be doable.
A friend on mine always recommended making bread as a way of getting your hands really clean...??

You're right, Anne. Pastry will do it too. Slice of pie anyone.....?
