MAVALA Stop
Discourages nail biting and
thumb sucking. Nail biting is a nervous habit, which can rapidly become
uncontrollable.
It has a bitter yet
harmless taste and the appearance of clear enamel. Helps break the nail
biting habit and thumb sucking. Works for children and adults.
How to use:
Apply a coat over the
entire nail (or polish) and allow to dry. Repeat the application every two
days. Continue the treatment until nail biting is ended.
Precaution : Never wash
hands immediately after application.
Bitten nails? Thumb sucking?
A good resolution:
Stop biting your nails in 33 days.
For children and adults.
Biting your nails can be a real problem. It gives an unfavorable
impression and is usually a reflection of personal anxiety or nervousness.
We are going to help you
overcome this disagreeable habit, but in order to do this you must
recognize the underlying reasons. Nail biting is, in fact, an
uncontrollable reflex which usually occurs during a particular situation:
i.e. waiting at a red light, talking on the phone, during a moment of
reflection, looking for an answer, etc.
To break this persistent
habit, we have devised a schedule for you to follow. Set a goal for
yourself, week by week, and in a month you will have beaten this problem.
The reward will be beautiful, healthy nails that all your friends will
envy.
Treatment schedule
- Day
1: The Decision is made.
This treatment should
only be applied on nine nails, leaving the little finger on your left
hand free if you are right-handed, or on your right hand if you are
left-handed.
Apply one or two coats
of MAVALA Nail Shield Phase 1, a
strengthener with nylon fibers which spread
over the nail like a lattice to strengthen almost like a second nail.
Apply Phase 2, the
sealer, which smoothes the tiny rough
patches created by the nylon fibers. Your
nails are now protected by a strong shield.
Then brush on a coat of
MAVALA Stop, a completely harmless product
with the appearance of clear nail polish. As
soon as your nails touch your mouth, the bitter taste of MAVALA
Stop will remind you of your good intensions
and prevent you from biting your nails.
If the urge to bite
your nails is overpowering, you still have your unprotected little
fingernail to satisfy your need and limit the damage.
- Day 2: Add cuticle care
to your program.
Reinforce the
bitterness of MAVALA Stop every day by
applying a fresh coat.
To keep yourself from
wanting to "chew", pay attention to your cuticles by massaging Cuticle
Cream into your nail contour. Cuticle Cream softens the cuticle and
makes it supple. No more hangnails to tempt you to groom them with
your teeth.
- Day 3 to 5: Carry emery
boards in your pocket.
From now on, always
carry a pocket of emery boards with you so you can instantly correct
any catches your nails may develop.
Remember your daily
coat of MAVALA Stop
and massage cuticles once or twice a day with Cuticle Cream.
- Day 6: You start to see
results.
Using Extra Mild Nail
Polish Remover, take off the coats of MAVALA Stop
and Nail Shield. Proceed with a traditional manicure. With the fine
side of the emery board, smooth any irregularities so that your nails
will not snag on anything and tear.
Apply Cuticle Remover
around the nails. In a few seconds, the dead skin will be pliable.
Using a manicure stick covered with cotton-wool, roll back the cuticle
and gently shape the contour.
Wash hands and clean
nails with a soft brush. Then follow with the two phases of Nail
Shield and a coat of MAVALA Stop.
- Day 7 to 12: Persevere!
Keep up the good work.
You are off to a good beginning. Put on a coat of MAVALA
Stop daily and massage cuticles once or
twice a day with Cuticle Cream.
Look at your nails and
be proud when they cover the end of your fingers and your cuticles are
less ragged and red.
- Day 13: A white edge
shows.
A real nail is coming !
Give yourself a manicure as on Day 6.
- Day 14 to 20: Stick to
it!
The hardest part has
passed and the goal is in sight. Continue putting on a daily coat of
MAVALA Stop and massage your cuticles with
Cuticle Cream once or twice a day.
- Day 21: Keep up your
courage; you are on the right track.
Continue to manicure
your nails. You can see that your nails are growing and the free edge
is a few millimeters long.
It is now time to start
with MAVALA Scientifique. Apply only to nail
tips to harden and fortify the new nail (see instructions).
You can start wearing a
light nail enamel now.
- Day 22 to 27: The end is
in sight.
Soon you will have the
satisfaction of beautiful, long nails. By now you will find that you
no longer want to bite that tenth nail; give it the same treatment
you've given the others.
Put on a daily coat of
MAVALA Stop and massage your cuticles with
Cuticle Cream once or twice a day.
- Day 28: What pleasure!
Proceed with your
fourth complete manicure using the same method as days 6, 13 and 21.
You are starting to have real fingernails; your dream will soon come
true.
- Day 29 to 32: Almost
there!
Don't let up. Continue
to put on your daily coat of MAVALA Stop and
massage your cuticles with Cuticle Cream once or twice a day.
- Day 33:
Victory!
See, it wasn't so
complicated to break this bad habit. All that was necessary was your
desire to do it, and this simple program from MAVALA. In a short time,
you have definitely shed this bad habit and shown your strength of
character. Congratulations!
From this point on, we
suggest you keep MAVALA Stop handy if you
feel you will be entering a stressful period.
Now that you have
reached your goal, keep up these good habits and treat yourself to a
weekly manicure to maintain this well-groomed look. When you stop
using Nail Shield, always protect your nails with
MAVALA 002 Base Coat under polish.
Note:
MAVALA Stop may be used by children over 2
years. Younger children have no taste yet, so that the bitterness of
MAVALA Stop will not disturb them.
We recommend to children
and adults who are sucking their thumb or fingers to wear gloves while
they sleep.
