How often do you apply it to your nails? Does it get washed off when washing your hands?

you are supposed to put just on the tips of nails for 6 days and then on the entire nail for a week and if you have NORMAL nails it apparently is supposed to make them much stronger and grow longer. Since it is colorless - you just wait for it to dry and it will not wash off. Due to other health problems of mine - it did not help - but several friends thought it was fantastic.

I know nothing about use on nails, I use it as a disinfectant and it doesn't stain the skin.

I use it to cure hiking fungus. It never gets on my hands. If you spill it, it can leave a yellow stain that is difficult to remove.

No. I just wipe my nails with rubbing alcohol. Then apply base coat, color, then top coat. Then wipe with alcohol to finish off

Apply nail shield to tips of nails every 3-4 days(twice weekly) for great results. I love this product and have found nothing comparable to harden fingernails.

No, it's supposed to stay on even after hand washing. I just apply it at night after using lotion and it keeps my hand irritation in check. I have terribly dry skin on hands/feet.

I learned about garlic for nails on the internet. Buy a bottle of clear nail polish and remove a bit of it. Mince finely a large clove of garlic and add to the polish. Allow to stand for a week. Then put the polish on your nails once a week for 4 or 5 weeks. It can be removed after 24 hours with nail polish remover or left on for the entire week. Then you only need to put it on your nails once every 3 months. Nothing is going to work for everyone as our nails are different but this "garlic treatment" is very inexpensive and it works for me.

I don't, it drys at the same speed as regular nail polish. I have natural nails and this lasts 14 days. I only need to redo my nails when the polish grows away from the nail bed. This makes my nails harder, no peeling, chipping, or anything. I swear by it.

I use it like regular soap, so however many times you bathe, or wash your hands...

You wash the nail and apply it once a day. No band-aid. I applied it just like Teri did, at night just before bed.

apparently, yes, it can be used on fingernails. The smell isn't very enticing though.

Well, it depends . . . Here's what I do, provided of course I'm only getting a small amount on a finger or two. Allow it to dry and you 'should' be able to peel it off. Then I wash with a shop cleaner with grit in it to wash my hands with, then if there is still some on my finger(s), I'll rub it off. If you are getting a lot on your finger(s) or hand(s), try using paint remover, but wash your hands with warm soap and water right after to avoid or reduce skin irritation.

I normally use a good amount of product, I just make sure I rub it in well and so far never had any streaks. But on my hands, I use a very small amount. No need to wipe your hands afterwards

I do not know the answer to this question. I have always put it directly on to my nails.

Sorry, I haven't gotten it on any clothing for me to wash it off.However, it is easily washable off the hands.

Yes. In fact, it keeps your polish last longer because the moisture in the oil keeps your hands nice and the polish doesn't chip and flake fast. Just rub off any excess and you are ready to go. I like to put it on the last thing before I go to bed so it can moisturize the nails and my hands. Very soft in the morning:) Thanks for asking--have a nice day:)

I have left mine on for the past two weeks since I got it. I also recycle the wax that I peel off my hand. I have a little "critters" now in the bottom, but there seems to be no effect on anything. I plan to clean this out once a month. The only concern I have about leaving this on is when I leave my house, but I need this to be ready several times during the day for hand pain due to nerve damage. I suffer from severe deep cramps. It has only been two weeks but I have grown to depend on this. I hope this helps you at least somewhat.

I gave up after trying nail polish remover, acetone, goo-gone. After it dried, I used steel wool and soap. Some came off but ultimately I just left it there on my fingertips and it finally wore off a few days later. Good luck and wear gloves next time.

I use it morning and night after washing my face. I simply turn the bottle upside down and let a drop or two fall into my palm. I rub my palms together then pat it onto my face. The trick is to CONTINUE patting it gently onto your face until it gets sticky, like sticky to the point where you feel like your hands are sticking to your face. It will feel very tacky, and that is what you want! The sticky feeling goes away very quickly.
