Blue Cross Cuticle Remover is the sodium hydroxide gel cuticle softener that has been the industry standard among licensed nail technicians since Blue Cross Laboratories began making it in Chicago in 1947. The 16 oz size is the midsize bottle in the line, suited to a single-chair nail station running steady cuticle volume or a small salon that wants a longer refill interval than the 6 oz allows.
How it works
The active ingredient is sodium hydroxide (NaOH), a strong alkaline that chemically breaks down the keratin in dead cuticle and pterygium tissue along the proximal nail fold. Lanolin is added as a conditioning agent to leave the surrounding skin and nail plate soft after rinse. The gel viscosity keeps the product on the cuticle line and off the living eponychium and surrounding skin during the short contact window.
Application protocol
Apply a small amount along the cuticle line with an applicator stick or cotton-tipped swab.
Allow 30 to 60 seconds of contact time. Do not exceed the time printed on the bottle label.
Gently push back softened cuticle with a metal or wood pusher. Do not nip living eponychium.
Rinse the nail and surrounding skin thoroughly with water to neutralize the alkaline.
Dry, then continue with the rest of the manicure or pedicure service.
Specifications
Size: 16 oz midsize bottle
Active: Sodium hydroxide (NaOH, lye)
Conditioning agent: Lanolin
Form: Liquid gel, characteristic blue tint
Use: Professional manicure and pedicure cuticle work
Audience: Licensed nail technicians, pedicurists, estheticians performing nail services
Why the 16 oz size
The 16 oz is the midpoint in the Blue Cross Cuticle Remover line. It is the right match for an independent nail tech running steady cuticle volume, or for a small salon stocking each chair from its own bottle rather than a central backbar. Per-ounce cost is lower than the 6 oz; refill interval is shorter than the 32 oz backbar bottle.
Pairs with
For the same pedicure service, follow the cuticle work with Blue Cross Callus Remover on any thickened plantar callus, then complete with mechanical filing or buffing. Higher-volume salons move from the 16 oz up to the 32 oz pour bottle for backbar use.
Caution
Caution: Contains sodium hydroxide, a strong alkaline. Apply only to dead cuticle tissue along the proximal nail fold, never on broken skin, cuts, or inflamed areas. Maximum contact time 30 to 60 seconds per label. Rinse thoroughly with water after contact time to neutralize. Wear gloves during application. Avoid eye contact; if contacted, flush with water for 15 minutes and seek medical attention. For professional use only.
