This is amazing product. After reading all good reviews, I decided to buy MAVALA. My daughter (2yrs and 9mths) was bitting her nails instantly, and nothing would worked. As soon as I received Mavala, we did manicure. She tried a couple of times to bite, but the next day, the habit is gone. I do apply the product, time after time, just in case. I'm so glad it worked. Thank you all for reviewing this product, and thank you MAVALA.
No more thumbsucking

My husband and I tried it first and YUCK! It was gross. So we put it on her nails and went to bed without sucking her thumb that evening. It has been several months and every now and then we catch her trying to sneak it back in so we reapply and VOILA! She is starting to understand the concept. I've recommended to many others with much appreciation.
Good Stuff

I believe this product is very good I started with my 3yr. daughter she sucks her thumb all the time day and night. This product really worked I seen a difference the only thing is that I did not have it long before I lost it. Now I am in the process of ordering more. I think the secret is to make sure you keep it on all the time if possible. I am going to try it again. I wished they sold it in stores.
Didn't work

My 3 year old son sucked this stuff right off and said "Please don't put that yucky stuff back on my thumb because it tastes bad but I can still suck my thumb." We tried it once more, but he continued to suck his thumb through the night.
It worked for us!

I was skeptical this was going to work since my daughter was so determined to suck her thumb, even though her teeth were moving and her dentist (whom she adored) told her not to and that he would be checking on her (not really but like a Santa thing). That didnt work. We kept talking to her about it and explaining why it was bad - still no worky. We tried this and immediately there was a response (crying as to why she had to have this on her nail). But with a commitment to putting it on her thumb nails each night it was only about 2 weeks before it stopped and we have continued for a whole month to get the new habit down of not sucking. She is happy, we are happy, and hopefully her teeth will forgive her and move back. This worked for us and if it didnt we would have moved onto the plastic hand device that wont allow suction or a seal to occur. Thankfully this worked and hopefully will work for you too.
not for our little one

This product was referred to us by a family with a child who even deformed his mouth from sucking on his thumb so much, but it didn't work for us. Our little one is determined, and though it tastes AWFUL and should work, it doesn't seem to be our solution.
Only Thing That Stopped Thumb Sucking

We tried a few other products to get our five year old to stop thumb sucking. Nothing ever worked except Mavala. After years of thumb sucking, he stopped in one night after applying this to his fingernail. Once he had a relapse and started sucking again, but I apply the Mavala and he stops right away.
Just What We Needed

I need to get my 3 year old to stop sucking her thumb so we decided to "paint our nails" one day and I used this. I did it for a few days and she completely stopped sucking her thumb. It worked perfect and I still have it in case she starts up again.
This is the best item ever for nail biting!!!!!

We have tried Thumbz, a product you can buy locally, gloves, band aids, and even paying to remind our son not ot bit his nails and nothing worked till this. He is so proud to show he has nails and how he doesnt bite them in class anymore. Thank you sooooo much.
It works!

We did something different with our 3 1/2 year old. We asked her to stop sucking her thumb. She said okay I will stop Saturday. She did not suck her thumb on Saturday but Sunday morning there it was back in her mouth. So we began searching for this product. We read some of the reviews posted and came up with our solution.
We told her sometime soon here thumb was going to start tasting different. We would ask her in the morning if it tasted different. Nothing. Then one night we applied a small amount to both thumbs. When she woke up in the morning she said "mommy it happened my thumb is icky". I applied to the whole finger that night. the next day she by habit put her thumb in her mouth again it was worse. She was done! she did not like the taste of her thumb. it has not entered her mouth again. She is getting to go see DIEGO tonight with her dad. I would not apply it in front of your child. do it while they are sleeping.
good luck.
IT WORKS!!!

My 3 year old daughter has been a huge thumb sucker her whole life- I never thought it would be so easy for her to stop- she HATED the taste- we put it on for about 3 days and she hasnt tried to suck her thumb since- its been over a month! I passed it onto a friend and she had the same results- i will probably ask for it back just to paint her thumb every so often- it doenst hurt... my doctor told me about Mavala!!! its the best!!!

This product is amazing. My sister has been biting her nails since before she can remember. Prior to using Mavala she has never had to use a nail clipper in all her life. If you bite your finger nails and you want to stop I would Highly recommend Mavala.
Mavala must buy

My son is 4 years old and I have tried many products and tricks to stop him sucking his finger but this was perfect.
I would definately recommend this before you try anything else.
Mavala Stop - No more thumb sucking, hooray!

After much research on products designed to help my almost 4-year-old son stop sucking his thumb, I settled on Mavala Stop. It worked like a charm from the very first day we tried it out. We used it regularly for about 2 weeks and he's been thumb free for the past 2.5 months. Excellent product - five stars! I only wish I had tried it sooner.

Worked great for our 4 year old. It only took one week for her to stop completely. Highly recommend.
Unbelievable!

I had doubts, it didn't seem possible that any product could help my 4 1/2 year old. She has been a hard core thumb sucker and hasn't fallen asleep without it even once since she was 4 months old. On Day 1 I prepared for the worst and expected at least a week of sleepless nights followed by relapses. However, on the first night she cried for 10 minutes then fell asleep. The following 2 nights she drifted off to sleep while looking at books- no crying. Night 4 and every night since she has had no problems going to sleep, even without books. I think it's safe to say she kicked the habit in one day without looking back! I have only 2 regrets... she no longer sleeps at nap time because she's not sleepy enough to drift off without her thumb, and I regret that I told her she could pierce her ears if she stopped sucking her thumb because I didn't actually think she'd do it so soon, and now I've got to live up to my end of the bargain.
It really works

I bought this for two of our thumb sucking kids. It does work. I tried it on myself to see what it's like and it's NASTY!! Completely disgusting!! Very quickly my kids thoughts twice about putting their thumbs into their mouths!!
