Mavala Stop Formula for not Biting Nails

I've been using it for about 5 days now after biting my nails for 30 years. I decided I really had to stop because of the pain when I bit them too much and my thumb hurt for 2 or 3 days.The varnish dries, so the flavor takes a second or 2 to activate, but then it lingers for a good while and serves as a punishment for putting your finger in your mouth. It's not so bad that you couldn't power through it if you really want to bite your nails. But it definitely does the job of reminding you not to. I havnt bitten mine since I ordered this.It also lasts through handwashing, but obviously if you need to give your nails a good scrub you'll need to re apply it. Or if you need it to be full strength you might need to apply it 2 or 3 times a day. I've got by once a day so far and nails are starting to grow

As a 69 year old lifelong nail biter, I can confidently say that you are very unlikely to bite your nails if they're coated with this stuff.I've had good nails for many months but as soon as I start nibbling I have to re-apply. You also have to be careful when eating or preparing food because the yucky taste transfers easily. Having said that, the product works very well and I would recommend.

This stuff tastes horrid which is good because it definitely does its job! But the taste does transfer when you eat finger food so I had to remove it from the nails on my right hand. But due to having the polish on my left hand nails, it naturally makes me not want to bite the nails on my right hand, so I guess it depends on your willpower too

I have tried other anti-nail biting solutions but this is by far the best product. It isn’t gloppy nor does it wash off. It is so fine it leaves a coated shine that last for a few days even with washing. Buying it from Amazon was at least £3 cheaper than in the store

This stuff is meant to put people off biting their nails. Well, for me I was barely able to taste it, so I wouldn't say its a particularly good deterrent.

This thing really works. I tried some other brands in the past, and they would wear off quickly, some could just be washed off in the shower and need to be reapplied daily. This stays on for 2-4 days and tastes horrible. My only issue is the bottle, once I started using it, the cap would never seal properly, even when tightened as much as possible. so it needs to be stored upright or it will leak and go to waste, I had to buy an extra bottle because of that.

I disliked this.It has infected all of my nails. Very sore fingers . Would never use again.

My son has sucked his fingers since he was around 4 months old and is now nearly 4.5 years old!We purchased the ‘thumbsie’ but he would just take it off, but I also introduced this nail varnish and it worked a treat!He still uses the thumbsie, but it took this nail varnish to stop the habit!
