Review: Praise the Mavala! - My baby is 17 months old, and this worked in just one day. She started sucking her thumb around 3 months old and never took a pacifier. Since then, she always sucked her thumb in the car seat and while sleeping. I honestly found it hard to look at, but I planned to address it closer to age two, when she might better understand. Recently, she started sucking much more aggressively. The skin on her thumb became raw, cracked, and scabbed over, and it clearly looked painful. It also wasn’t healing even after a long time. I knew she was still very young, but at that point I decided to try this product. I do want to mention that the taste is extremely bitter. The first time she put her thumb in her mouth, she immediately stuck her tongue out, smacked her lips, and clearly hated the taste. She kept making faces and licking her lips in confusion — but that bitterness is exactly what made this work. The result was a complete success. She stopped sucking her thumb after just one day. The first night, she tossed a little in her sleep but didn’t cry and slept through the night. I plan to continue applying it for another 1–2 weeks just to be safe. I’m incredibly grateful for this product — the bitterness may be unpleasant, but it is truly effective.
Review: Finally Broke a Lifelong Habit! - After years of trying to stop biting my nails, I finally decided to give Mavala Stop a try. Here’s my experience with the product after several weeks of use. What I Liked: It Really Works: The primary feature is the intensely bitter taste, and it delivers. The first time you unconsciously put your finger near your mouth, you'll know it. This immediate, unpleasant feedback is highly effective at building awareness and breaking the automatic habit . Easy to Apply: The application is just like a clear nail polish. It goes on smoothly and dries relatively quickly, forming a transparent coat on the nails . Long-Lasting Formula: A major advantage is that it survives hand washing. The taste deterrent remains active, so you don't have to reapply it multiple times a day. Most users find one application lasts about two days, making it convenient and cost-effective . For the Whole Family: This product is designed for anyone over the age of 3, making it a solution for both children and adults struggling with nail-biting or thumb-sucking . What to Consider: The "Smell" Factor: When first applied, it has a distinct chemical or "nail polish" smell. However, this odor does fade quickly after it dries on the nails . Texture Can Feel Sticky: Some users note that the polish can feel a bit sticky or tacky for a short while after application until it fully sets . Requires Consistency: Breaking a habit takes time. You need to be consistent with reapplication every 2-3 days for at least a couple of weeks to see lasting results . Final Verdict: Mavala Stop is a highly effective and practical product for tackling nail-biting. While the initial smell and slight stickiness are minor drawbacks, the powerful bitter taste and long-lasting formula make it a worthwhile investment. It successfully helped me become conscious of my habit and break the cycle. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a solution.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: If applying this every day, about how many days does .3 oz last?**
A: First, you don't need to apply every day. It stays on for at 2-3 days. Secondly, the bitter flavor is so strong you don't have to use much each time you apply, so it lasts AWHILE. We barely made a dent in it by the time my daughter completely stopped wanting to suck her thumb.

**Q: Can it be used on cuticles**
A: The bitter taste would help stop cuticle chewing. I haven't used it specifically for that purpose and don't know the long term effects i.e. damage to cuticles. I would say its safe to use and effective on the cuticles if not used very often or very long. For more accurate answers please contact the manufacturer.

**Q: can I put it on silicon pacifiers to break my toddler from that habit?**
A: I would not. What I did was switch pacifier brands to one with a different shape. My child tried it and didn't like it and stopped needing a pacifier in a few days, since the old one was unavailable. I think switching instead of just removing it entirely lessened the crying.

**Q: What is the recommended age? I have a 2 yr old baby girl who suck her thumb a lot :(**
A: A relative of mine used it to curb thumb sucking on her 2 year old son. Not only did it cure the thumb sucking problem, but he was very happy to brush his teeth. Use just a tiny dab on his thumbnail and the problem will be solved. You should also try a tiny dab just to know of strong and how awful this stuff really tastes.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worked wonders!
*by E***A on December 18, 2025*

Bought this as it was recommend by my child’s pediatrician to help stop biting his nails/putting his fingers in his mouth and it worked! The very first day he kept putting his fingers in his mouth and got grossed out by the sour taste but was still curious about it…. After school on our way home he had a huge projectile vomit in the car 😭. Due to him sticking his fingers in his mouth and by day 3 he was hardly putting them in his mouth… I haven’t had to use it other than 3 times. And the third time was a just in case application.. the 2nd time was on day 2 because it wore of from too much washing his hands (outdoor play, school, before meals ect..)
