To soften the skin and cuticles so it can be trimmed and groomed.

Some folks soak in Palmolive® Dishwashing Liquid, after seeing those TV commercials featuring Madge the Manicurist.

Jan Miner became a TV icon to generations of viewers as Madge, the wisecracking manicurist for Palmolive Dishwashing Detergent. She played this role for 27 years, one of the longest ongoing product endorsement relationships in TV history.
