Product reviews of Mavala Stop - Helps Cure Nail Biting and Thumb Sucking, 0.3-Fluid Ounce
Review: 5 days and counting!
Beauty product: 5 Stars
This is a great product, it tastes terrible, something that preventing the other stuff I had tried before from working, and it is shiny so I know that something is there and I can fight the urge to bite my fingernails. The sheen is a problem as well though as a male it is hard to wear shiny nail polish but since it is working I can deal with it. The other problem is that when eating it sometimes rubs off on my lips, etc especially with finger foods. But I can say that since it is working i will deal with these two minor problems. I have been biting my fingernails for over 20 years and this is honestly the first product that has worked for me!

My daughter is now finished thumb sucking thanks to this product. We had to put it on maybe four times and she is done. So happy my dentist recommended this to us. Review: A Wonderful Product!

I bought this product for my 7 and 4 year old children. Both kids are nail biters and despite my best efforts to get them to stop, nothing worked. That is, until I bought this nail polish. After the first application it began its magic and after only a week of applying it (and that's only been two applications because you paint it on once every two days) the nail biting is all but gone. I have to tell you, I tried it myself and the taste is absolutely terrible. It goes in mild but after a second it is repulsive and depending on how long the finger was in your mouth it tends to stay with you. A drink of water and washing the lips gets rid of the taste though, but I have to admit, it is a powerful deterrent--and no amount of hand washing gets rid of it on the fingers! My kids actually came close to vomiting because the taste was so terrible. The only downside comes when eating, especially with my 4 year old because her fingers sometimes go into her mouth by accident. You could count that as a positive though if you are picky about table manners.
My kids fingers were in very bad shape before using this polish making them self conscious and ashamed to have others look at them. Now the nails are actually starting to grow and the ragged appearance is starting to go away. They are now proud to show off their shiny nails and that is worth much more to me than any price this polish could possibly be.
My advice is to go ahead and get this polish if your own kids need help with nail biting or thumb sucking and are at an age to appreciate the help. I've told mine that the polish is there to help make their nails all better and they love getting their "medicine" to make their nails shiny. This stuff works and is worth every penny.
Review: A great product!

We have been trying to get our daughter to stop sucking her fingers for several years. When some other kindergarteners made fun of her I knew we had to somehow end the habit. The Mavala stop nail biting product worked instantly, I only had to reapply once and she was done! I would highly recommend to anyone with a similar problem! Review: A little tough love, But it works.

My son is 2 years old and has been sucking his thumb since he found it as a baby. I really wanted to break this habit and have been trying for a year now. I tried all the things I read about and nothing worked. I did not want to wait any longer with hearing the horror stories of dental problems from friends that had kids that sucked their thumbs. I tried tobasco sauce on the thumbs and it was just a taste that would stop him for a minute and then it would go away and he would have his thumb right back in his mouth. I found an article about Thum and foud that many people said it didn't work and that their children started to like the taste and I thought then it couldn't be any better than the tobasco sauce and then I found this product. I will admit when you first put it on and your child tries to suck his thumb it is hard to see him gag and his mouth water from the taste. But I gave him a drink and let him get the taste out of his mouth and he has tried once more in the week and a half of using this stuff. I put it on once every three days so far and it seems to be working. I really thought I would never break him of this habit, if he was not eating one of his thumbs were almost always in his mouth while the other was playing with his toy or whatever he was doing. It really does work, you just have to be willing to see your child the first time or two gag for a minute when they get that taste in their mouth. I am hoping to only use this about another week and hopefully I won't have to put it on ever again!!!!
