    You Want To Have To Stop Biting Too!
    MAVALA Stop for Nail Biting and Thumb Sucking is a great product. I read a couple reviews that said that its confusing what youre supposed to do with it, even though the product speaks for itself, because the insert doesnt include anything in the English language. This wasnt true for me. Maybe this was an older version of the product. Anyway, you do have to want to stop biting your nails first off. It makes it much easier. I wanted to stop but obviously not enough, because soon enough I stopped brushing my nails with the liquid and I began biting my nails again. But, the taste is so horrible and it stays in your mouth on your lips , at least for me, for at least a whole day. The only way you can get it off your tongue or lips is to wipe your tongue or lips on your sleave. But, if you bite again, you are right back to where you started. I suggest this product for anyone who wants to stop. If you think the product is going to do everything for you, you might as well not buy it, because youre going to stop using it like I did. I started using it again and my nails are longer than theyve ever been probably since before I knew HOW to bite my nails. Ive probably been biting them since I was like 6 years old and Ive only gotten increasingly worse, biting all the way down until I bleed. In conclusion, if you want to stop, youre sick of the hang nails, and the sore fingers from biting in too far, I strongly recommend MAVALA Stop for Nail Biting and Thumb Sucking!!

    Mavala Stop- Amazing Product!!!!!!
    I LOVE this product!! It works!!! I have 4 kids that had nail/thumb habits that I wanted to stop. My worst 2 habit breakers were the thumb sucker and finger suckers. My 2 year old quit sucking her fingers within days!! I was totally amazed, she sucked them non-stop before. My 6 year old took a while longer, but has also stopped. She had a really hard time falling asleep at night the first several times it was on. But it is so worth it!! My oldest who is 8 years old has quit biting her nails and now gets to use nail polish, she is very proud. My 4 year old is still working on it and would probably do better if I was better about putting the mavala stop on at least every other day. I tell everyone I know about this product. It is a life saver. I figure my 6 year old no longer is in danger of needing to wear braces due to thumb sucking. That alone is worth the price of trying the product. Make sure you keep putting it on every other day or so. Definately a MUST have if you want to break these bad habits!!

    Really Works!!!
    I have a four year old who sucks his thumb. Ive tried everything but he loves his thumb so much no other product could keep his thumb out of his mouth until I found Mavala on Folica.com. It really, really works! In fact on the days I may not put the product on my sons thumb he will ask "Mama is the stuff on my thumb?" and I will say yes and right away he stops thinking about even putting it in his mouth. In fact Ive tried it to stop bitting my nails or just to keep my hands away from my mouth and it tastes horrible. It does work....

    Worked Great!
    My Son who is two was a avid thumbsucker until I found Mavala. It took one night of crying but the product worked. He stopped sucking and he hasnt tried again. But the product tends to rub off the fingers onto everything he touched. Even the food that he would touch became bitter.

    Daughter Hates It
    Just seconds ago my daughter started having a tantrum about putting on the Mavala. She cant stand it and still wants to suck her thumb when she is tired. It is a battle but this stuff works when we can get it on her thumb. She is certainly more conscious of the thumb sucking. Tonight we will try while she is sleeping. The Mavala works, we just have to be strong and use it.

    I only had to use it once and my son hated it! He stopped biting his nails once he tasted this stuff. It really works.

    Thumb Sucking And Nail Biting
    I am an orthodontist that treats a lot of kids that suck their thumbs. This product works better than anything that I have ever tried in 37 years. It is also very effective in stopping nail biting.

    Stop Worked!
    My four and a half year old son had sucked two of his fingers since before he was born - we saw it in the ultrasound pictures - and we had tried all kinds of methods to get him to quit. STOP worked immediately. He no longer sucks his fingers when he is awake or while he sleeps. It has been two months now with no fingers in his mouth!
