Definitely Should have an effect on nail biting habit...
Used it on my Nephew and he absolutely hated the flavor. But it did keep him from sticking fingers in his mouth that' s for sure. I gave it a taste for my self, and it has a really potent medicine taste. the flavor will last for about for about 5-10 in my experience with just a small amount on the tip of your finger. best to eat something that will mask the flavor if you decide to try it. it helped me.

DO NOT BUY THIS
DO NOT BUY THIS.... I bought this product originally 6+ years ago and it was incredible, nasty, stayed on for days, fantastic!! Needed to re-up after finally going through my supply, and I believe they changed the formula, it sucks! I could barely taste it the first time I put it on, and even putting on a copious amount, (which I never had to do before) it still didn't last or work at all.

Highly effective deterrent for nail biting
I purchased CONTROL-IT for my child who struggled with nail-biting, and I'm thrilled with the results. This product offers a 100% natural solution that is safe for kids, adults, and teens. The bitter taste deterrent is gentle on the skin, teeth, and nails, making it a comfortable yet effective remedy. The application is easy, and my child didn't mind it at all. What impressed me most is that it doesn't contain any harsh chemicals, providing a worry-free solution for parents. We noticed a significant reduction in nail-biting within just a few days. It's a relief to find a product that not only works but also prioritizes safety. I highly recommend CONTROL-IT to anyone dealing with nail-biting or thumb-sucking issues. It's been a game-changer for our family!

Doesn’t work for EVERYONE
So this product is intended to help kids not suck their fingers or bite their nails. Well, I think it tastes nasty (tasted it on accident). So for me, it would do its job and deter me from putting that nasty flavor in my mouth. My crazy kid however…. They would eat this stuff like it was ice cream if they could. I have to find a better solution… 😂

It's ok...
We bought this to put on our sons hands so he'd keep them out of his mouth. This stuff worked pretty decent for the first few times. After that he didn't seem to care that this stuff was there. So we won't be using it any more or going to buy any more.

It Works
This is the second deterrent I bought. The first one was a polish by Super nail called “bite no more” (I don’t recommend. Strong chemical smell and the stock photo says safe for kids but the actual package does not). I had to order a replacement because the first tube had an opening at the bottom seal and the product leaked out. The second tube was fine. My kid has been sucking her thumb since like 8 months old and it’s been a struggle to get her to stop. She’s 3 now. I put a small amount on her whole thumb 3 times between a day and a half’s time and by the end of day 3 she stopped completely. I haven’t used anymore since then. It has been week. If anything changes I’ll update this. The product itself has consistency of a thick lotion so a little goes a long way. It smells like ginger and has a bitter but dry taste to it.

Did not work for us, but why does this not come in a smaller version?
I wish this came in a smaller version. We used this for my 3 year-old and even though she doesn’t like the flavor, she eventually gets used to it and sucks her thumb again within an hour of application. I get it that every child is different, but now I’m stuck with a big container of a product that did not work for us.

This product is a game changer!
I’ve been biting my nails for as long as I can remember, and nothing ever worked — until I tried Control It. This stuff is a game-changer. It’s super easy to apply, and the bitter taste is just enough to make you think twice before putting your fingers near your mouth. If you struggle with nail biting or thumb sucking, look no further. Seriously, I wish I had found this years ago. Totally worth it!

Useless

Works! Tastes horrible like it’s suppose to
This stuff is what you want! My daughter sucks her thumb, we put it on her thumb once!! She was done. If she’s sucking her thumb and we want her to stop we just have to say we’re going to get the cream and she listens right away. My husband tried it just to see how bad it was. They were both trying to get the taste out of their mouths for hours. This is the stuff to get people to stop. The horrid taste progresses after it gets in your mouth.

waste of money
Our dentist recommended this product so my daughter would stop sucking her thumb.I'm going to change dentists.My daughter enjoyed this cream so much i could have made a dip out of it. Im still trying to decide the winner of the worst product of the century; this cream or the self melting ice cubes they sell next to the normal ones for twice the price…..key words; snake oil, charlatan, false advertising
