Mavala Mavaderma Nail Oil 10ml

Mavaderma is Mavala's nail growth treatment and one of the products the Swiss brand is best known for. It is a blend of three plant oils, wheat germ, olive and sweet almond, in a formula of 93% natural origin, and it is massaged into the nail root area rather than painted over the nail plate. Nails are fed through the blood supply at the root, so the treatment is aimed at that area, and it is applied at night and left to work overnight.

Specs

• Form: Nourishing massage oil for nails
• Volume: 10ml
• Key oils: Wheat germ, olive, sweet almond
• Natural origin content: 93%

Benefits

• Each oil does a different job. Wheat germ oil is rich in vitamin E and is the nourishing element, olive oil helps restructure the nail, and sweet almond oil is the emollient that softens and regenerates
• It is applied at the root rather than over the nail, which is the part people usually get wrong with nail oils. Growth happens at the matrix under the skin, not on the visible plate
• The massage is part of the method, not an afterthought. Circular massage with the thumb helps the oil penetrate and stimulates the area
• The same emollient action keeps the cuticle and surrounding skin supple, which reduces the ragged edges that lead to picking and further damage
• Nails grow slowly, roughly 3mm a month on the hands, so this is a treatment to keep up for two to three months before judging it

How to Use

• Apply daily, ideally in the evening, to the skin covering the nail root
• Massage in circular motions with your thumb to help it absorb
• Leave it to work overnight
• Do not apply before a manicure. The oily film stops base coat and polish adhering properly
• Keep using it for two to three months to see the effect on new growth
• Close the cap tightly and store in a cool, dry place
