Nail Biting Prevention for Kids - Thumb Sucking Deterrent for Kids, Toddlers, Children - No Bite Nail Polish Pen - Bitter Taste - Safe & Effective Solution for Age 3+

This is really bitter/yucky taste. Super easy to use, you twist the bottom and the product come up into the bristles. It’s been working so far, my child said it’s “spicy”. I just keep reminding him to stop sucking his thumbs.

This product is insanely effective to stop thumb sucking!! I’m in (pleasant) shock. Background - our daughter has sucked her thumb basically since birth. I actually didn’t care to have her stop yet except that the thumb sucking turned into a simultaneous hair pulling (her own hair) issue around 2.5 years old which got really bad. I bought every little hair toy, fidget item, literally everything out there to try to stop the hair pulling but nothing even touched it. I learned it is a self soothing behavior exclusively tied to thumb sucking so … our finnnnnal last ditch effort was to try to stop the thumb sucking, something I wasn’t too hopeful would work based on all I had read about how hard it is to stop with really young kids. TWO DAYS. 2. That’s it. I put this stuff on her thumbs and she completely stopped thumb sucking (and hair pulling) in TWO days. I am mind blown. Day 1/ the first time she tried it her reaction was extreme. Tears, she started drooling - it was intense. We made up a story about how when you get too old to suck your thumb it just starts to taste bad. After 2 days of applying at around 3x per day her entire oral habit seems to have stopped. She’s not even reaching up to suck her thumb or trying while falling asleep or anything!! We are now 3 weeks in and she doesn’t seem to miss it or be inclined to suck her thumb at all, even without needing the product anymore. 10/10 recommend I also tasted it. It’s awful, almost causes an oral reaction it’s so bad, but it freaking worked!!

Did not work on my 2 year old she got over the extremely nasty taste and continues to suck her thumb. It literally only worked for the first application

It’s good stuff and my daughter definitely doesn’t suck her thumb while it’s on there. It’s nice that you can wash it off so you don’t have to worry about traumatizing them during meal times. However, you have to make sure the lid is on tight or it all evaporates. I had one pen that my daughter got a hold of and popped the lid off. It was all gone the next time we went to use it. I ordered a double pack as a replacement so I could have one at home and one at daycare but one of the pens arrived empty, pretty disappointing after what you pay for it. Didn’t feel like going through the hassle of returning it through Amazon so I just have one really expensive pen. If the second order hadn’t come with a dud I probably would have given it a 5

My son is 17 months and has had a bad habit of biting his nails since after he turned a year old around the same time I took his pacifier away. He started biting his nails to the point that he would complain they hurt because of how short they are but would continue to bite them regardless of them hurting. I bought this product to try and it does work when it is on his nails. Before putting it on his nails I tried it myself and it does have an awful bitter taste! It does prevent him from biting his nails but I have noticed that once it has worn off or washed off he will begin biting again. If I am consistent with it his nails are able to finally grow back. He does still bite them but I am hoping eventually after continuing to use it he will grow out of the habit. It is so simple to put on his nails that he even will do it himself! I recommend this product and will continue to purchase when I run out.

Works perfectly, tastes disgusting (as it should) helped my daughter stop sucking her thumb in 4 days! Have been using daily for my ADHD son who bites his nails and fingers and it definitely deters him.

But of a backstory, I bought this for my husband as well as my almost 4 year old. My husband has had a nail biting issue since he was in grade school. His nails are nonexistent and his fingers are nubs at this point. He bites his nails 24/7 and at this point doesn’t even realize he’s biting them. Our 4 year old has recently started the bad habit as well in the last year. I decided to put this on my son‘s nails at 9 AM. I am a firm believer that if I’m giving my child something like this I should also be trying it. Now I do not have a nail biting issue, but I put a dab on my hand and licked it. Holy crap this stuff taste horrendous. I instantly begin chugging water, spitting in the sink. I saw the previous reviews where they said that it made their child puke and I thought it was an exaggeration. But there I was in the sink, thinking I was gonna be sick. It is now 10 AM. The wave of bitterness and sickness passed within 2 minutes, within five minutes, I had gotten the taste out of my mouth because I was chugging water. Now an hour later I still feel it linger. I have a slight headache from the taste and my stomach hurts. It tastes almost like battery acid. It is very bitter and an absolute awful taste. My four-year-old now has it on his hands (I put it on his fingers and then I tasted it) He has yet to put his hand in his mouth. When my husband comes home will be the real test. Because I’m curious to see how long it lasts and lingers on your fingers. So as of right now, I give it five out of five stars. I will update this at the end of the week and see if we have kicked the nailbiting habit out of our house. But please be aware it is truly a horrible taste. So parents, please be aware your kid may puke.

Worked but have to be consistent. I tried it because of my daughter’s reaction. Tastes AWFUL. I personally would only use kids 4+

It did not work that good

Liquid dried off fast. We used it for our child’s thumb sucking and it worked the 2nd day of 3x swabs. It tasted awful but it mentally reminded him that it’ll taste awful. We had to resort to this method as he was starting kindergarten soon. Could’ve have started earlier but it’s serves as good option.

ok product

Great product. Finally working!
