Most Helpful Positive Review Tastes terrible so it works! I've been biting my nails for close to 26 years. Basically all my life. My parents used to put embarrassing band aids on my fingers to deter me from biting, never worked. I tried to keep my nails painted but would always bite through the nail polish. Even when I would get acrylics I would still bite on those.
This products tastes so bad and every time I put my my finger in my mouth the taste would hit immediately and LINGER. I'm so committed to keep my fingers out of my mouth because I just want to avoid the taste so bad. ITS REALLY BAD! This product so far has worked fantastic!
Most Helpful Critical Review It doesn't stay on my nails?? Ok yes, it tastes horrible, like so bad. The first 2 weeks I used it, it was great, my nails grew a ton and I thought I broke the habit so I gave in and painted my nails a cute color since I was excited to actually have some length to my nails. That flopped and I bit all my nails in stress. Going on round 2 it seems to be rubbing and chipping off my nails every single day. It's ALWAYS worn off by the next day and I can see my bare nail with little patches of where the polish still is. I don't get why it's chipping and rubbing off, nothing has changed since the last time I used it. I reapply in the morning but according to the instructions I only need to do that every 2 weeks. It was going so great and now it's not :(

It works but causes other issues 3
Gabby from LA
I will say that the smell is fine and it does not burn your eyes if you rub them or burn your face if you touch it. Definitely tastes bad and deters you from biting. The taste lingers too. The reason I don't know this product is the bad tasting stuff TRANSFERS. My mouth has tasted awful for two days straight without me biting them. Any food you touch tastes horrible. My boyfriend could taste it on the lunch I made him and I haven't reapplies since two days ago!! Really annoying honestly. A non transferring formula would make this product a 5/5
No more thumb sucker! 5
Thumb no more from Seattle
My daughter, 5, is a serious thumb sucker! We applied this one time and that was enough to remind her to stop (even at night!) - her reward was getting her ears pierced! The whole family applied a coat on our thumbs as well. It's not the worst thing you've tasted but you definitely rush to rinse your mouth.
This Stuff Works! 5
Theblond1 from California
We had tried everything to get our two-year-old daughter to stop sucking her fingers. Sucking her fingers was a habit she developed when she was about six months old to soothe herself. She would do it constantly: When she was tired, when she was watching TV, when she was going to bed, when she was in bed, and when she was riding in the car. She wouldn't stop sucking her fingers for anything! I bought the Ella+Mila No More Biting and applied it to her sucking fingers. She hated the taste and would need water to get rid of the taste. It only took 24 hours before she was no longer sucking her fingers anymore. It's been two weeks and she hasn't tried again. I wish I would have bought this product sooner! I couldn't believe it was so easy, quick and painless! I would highly recommend this product for any parent out there trying to break the habit of their kid sucking their thumb or fingers. It truly works!!

It's like a clear nail polish doesn't smell but tastes awful
Love this product! 5
Ashlee from Johnstown, PA
Bought this for my daughter since she is a chronic thumb sucker. We had tried everything to get her to stop. Saw this product on my Facebook feed and decided to try it. Works perfectly! She's stopped sucking her thumb. We put it on once a day and it helps. Gives a terrible taste no matter what.

I mean it works 4
Amber from Pennsylvania
My whole life I've had the awful habit of biting my nails but this has helped immensely. My nails have already started growing (pretty fast too) after probably a week and the taste is awful enough to keep me from even thinking about it. My only issue is how the taste transfers. Along with the nail biting, I also pick and bite at my lips and the taste is on my lips too. I guess that also helps me not to pick at my lips but I just don't like how it transfers so easily.
Works! 5
Carly from NY
The taste is awful enough that it trains your brain quickly to keep those nails away from your mouth. The aftertaste is horrible and definitely prohibits biting! My nails are longer already!
I LOVE this product, but my 10 year old boy hates it 5
Happy Mom from Anaheim,CA
Since school and sports have been put on hold I've noticed my sons anxiety kicking in (He also has ADHD). He picked up the habit of biting his nails (toenails included!!). I was getting tired catching him with a foot or hand in his mouth. So luckily
for me I found this product. He didn't like the idea of putting anything on that resembles nail polish but he eventually got over it. Later that evening he tried to bite his nails and was extremely upset about the taste ( he said it was poison..lol). Anyways here we are 1 week later and he finally his nails growing!!! l He might hate it but Mommy loves it!
I will keep buying this until I stop biting my nails! 4
Jori from Pittsburgh, PA
It's definitely causing me not to bite my nails. Tastes very bitter and gross. Usually my nails are down to where they bleed and my skin is chewed off because of my anxiety. And my hands are usually very sore because of it. I'm on day 5 of having this on my nails and my hands are looking and feeling so much better already! Only thing I have to complain about it, is that it peals off very easy. So you have to keep applying it. But definitely worth it!!
BEST STUFF EVER! 5
TawnyG from Monroe, GA
I bought this product for my seven year old son to try after finding numerous other brands did not work for nail biting. He finally has nails growing! He was so excited to ask me to cut his nails! We tell EVERYONE about this polish and how well it works!
works as advertised 5
layne from brooklyn
this polish does exactly what its supposed to do- tastes so terrible you want to avoid putting your fingers near your mouth at all costs. it tastes like how your finger would taste if you had nail polish remover on it and the taste lingers on your tongue and in the back of your throat for a few minutes. its actually terrible, which i guess is a good thing. that only downside is that it works so well that ANYTHING you touch and then have to put in your mouth will taste like it. i have a retainer and whenever i have to put it in or take it out, i get hit with the taste. and dont eat anything that will tempt you to lick your fingers afterwards, you WILL regret it.
It works! 5
Brittany from Mount Carmel
This absolutely works! When I have this on my nails I cant even pick up food and put it in my mouth without tasting this. If your nail just touches your lip you can taste it. The taste reminds me of strong nail polish remover. I don't know if you've ever taken your nail polish off and then touch your mouth but that's the taste.
Very Pleased!! 5
Courtney from BOSTON
My 4 year put her thumb in her mouth twice the day I painted her nails and then she was done sucking her thumb! She did not like the taste. She even let me reapply! It worked perfectly!
Worked like a charm 5
Karen from Charleston
I only have had to apply this nail polish twice on my 4 year olds fingers and she's completely stopped sucking her thumb! So happy with this product!
It works! 5
Monique from Saint Louis
My daughter has anxiety and used to bite her nails so much but in 2 days, in only 2 days she stopped! I bought without thinking it would work. I am a believer now and so should you!! It works!!
Amazing! 5
Stella from Miami
We have tried everything to help our 8 year old (ADHD & anxiety diagnosis) child to stop bitting her nails, and skin around her fingers. I bought this product thinking Maybe it would help. It has been God sent. Now i apply it every other day, on her nail and on the surrounding skin. The skin has healed over the last week, i removed all the polish and gave her a manicure & reapplied. Her nails are growing. Product is SAFE and tastes awful enough for her not to bite it. She started picking at her toe nails, so i put it there too. And the good news is she is not hesitant to the application. She understands that its helping her. So we will keep applying as we work through this! So thankful for this product.
6 year old nail bitter 5
Amanda from Tucson
My 6 year old is a nervous nail bitter and he basically chewed his nails so low it made me anxious just looking at them just two applications and two weeks his nails are grown out and make him feel so good about not biting them anymore. Thank you for this product. We will be purchasing again when we run out.
Disgustingly Perfect 5
Michele from Russellville
I have bitten my nails most of my life and with the pandemic getting close to my area I knew I needed a tool to help me keep my hands away from my face. Believe me this stuff works!! I have used others that were water consistency and washed off quickly but this is like real clear polish and stays on. WARNING: be careful eating finger foods such as chicken nuggets, nachos, crackers, anything bite sized. This flavor does not go well with it. :-)
Works wonders 5
Ashley from South Charleston
This polish is the best(most disgusting) out there. My daughter is 19 and we could not get her to stop. 2 applications of this did the trick!
Tastes worse than any chemical one 5
Sam from Prov Ri
I'm 33 and am still struggling with being a nail biter. I've tried countless anti biting nail polish and nothing ever really deterred me.
THIS STUFF IS SO AWFUL TASTING. It has blown every other type out of the water. The only downside I will point out is that if you even use ur finger to put on lip balm, ur going to taste it. And it stays strong for a few days then you need to re apply.
I'm hoping this can finally fully break me of my nail biting habit!
Perfect timing 5
Laura from Charleston
I ordered this before the big pandemic / Coronoavirus outbreak... my 7 year old and I both are nail. Others. We both put it on the other night and EWWWW! The bitterness has opened my eyes to how frequently my fingers touch my lips ?ƒñª?Çì?ÖÇ??Å?ƒñª?Çì?ÖÇ??Å. I am a teacher and want all my students to get this ?ƒÿ¥.
Amazing 5
Mariya from Wasilla
Love this!! My husband but his nails for years and before we got married I promised him I'd help him rid of this habit he had almost no nails like more than half of his nails were gone but now first time in years his nails are growing back!! He hates the taste so it's stopping him from biting them!
Great product 5
Melisss from Amawalk
I was worried that buying this product I would get used to the taste and continue my nasty habit of bitting my nails. I can proudly say right now, I have stopped bitting my nails. I have the occasional impulse of putting my fingers in my mouth but instantly stop because of the horrible taste.
