Hi Emma, this is the procedure I do, file one hand and apply cuticle remover, push back cuticles and then soak fingers, file second hand, apply cuticle remover, push back cuticles, remove first hand and dry fingers, put second hand in to soak. On first hand apply a dot of cuticle eraser and solar oil and rub in well and then the same on the second hand. You could use heated mitts but I use solar manicure for its moisturising properties. It leaves the hands feeling really soft, then massage with solar silk or solar butter. HTH
