Overview

A penetrating water based solution bonds the layers of the nail plate together, hardening soft and splitting tips. Mavala Scientifique Applicator is a pen style nail strengthener applied to the free edge.

Targeting the fragile tip where nails break is a smart approach, and the pen makes application quick. It is neither a base nor a polish. Overuse beyond the maintenance schedule can make nails brittle.

Who it's for

Nails that peel or split at the free edge benefit from a hardening treatment. People with already hard, brittle nails should avoid adding more hardener.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Quick pen applicator
  • Targets the fragile tip
  • Clear use schedule
  • Long running formula
Cons
  • Overuse can cause brittleness
  • No color or shine

Performance notes

The solution soaks into the tip and binds the nail layers so they stop separating. Following the twice weekly schedule builds strength, then less frequent use maintains it. Applying to clean, dry nails helps it penetrate.
