uka Nail Oil 13:00 is a cuticle and nail treatment oil blended with peppermint, spearmint, lemon, pine, litsea cubeba, marjoram, wintergreen, and cardamom — a sharp, clarifying mid-afternoon reset in a glass roll-on.
Each oil in uka's lineup is named for a time of day. 13:00 is for when the afternoon slump arrives — the moment focus softens and the rest of the day still needs to happen. The scent is immediate and unambiguous: cool mint, bright lemon, a resinous pine note, and the faint spice of marjoram and cardamom underneath. Light in texture, fast-absorbing, and entirely appropriate to use at a desk.
The base of sweet almond, argan, jojoba, and wheat germ oil hydrates without weight. Roll it onto the cuticles, or onto the neck and shoulders for a sharper aromatic effect. Made in France in an organic distillery. 100% natural.
