My cuticles are kinda dark. My manis don't look pretty on my nails. Is this something natural that can't b helped or can I do something to reduce it?

You can use a cuticle remover :) to lighten them, rub some lemon juice in them

They look fine to me! Don't use lemon juice, you'll just dry out your skin and cause hangnails. Being completely honest, I seriously doubt that anyone notices that but you. We are all our own worst critic, and it is easy to latch on to little details that other people don't even see. I love that pink polish you have on!

Thank you both! I read somewhere that it may have 2do with nutrition. I'll just take better care of my nails now!
