Cuticle manicuring device

Abstract

A cuticle manicuring device is provided wherein a vibrating electrical motor is contained within an elongated, pencil shaped housing and wherein a manicuring implement extends axially from one end of the housing. The manicuring implement includes a vibrating stem driven by the vibrating motor and having a crescent shaped abrasive element disposed at the distal end thereof. A cuticle guide extends from the end of the housing parallel to the vibrating stem and is broad enough to provide support to the oscillating abrasive element. The tip of the guide is formed as a point and extends beyond the abrasive element so as to enter beneath the cuticle and provide a limit stop to the forward movement of the abrasive element. A cap is provided to fit over the manicuring implement to frictionally engage with the housing to be retained thereon. A retractable cuticle lifter is provided in the cover.
