Q: can I put this directly on skin where my nail is missing?

submitted by FT - 10 months ago
  • A: Hello, thank you very much for your question. This treatment should be applied on the nail that needs care, not on skin. Please let us know if you have any further questions.

I went from having my nails done professionally for years to doing them myself. They started out so thin it was horrible. Then I discovered ella+mila. I use the Firm Foundation nail hardner, a beautiful polish and the What the Gel gel-like top coat. My nails have never been this strong or healthy! I have got my fingers caught on things and my nails didn't break. I will never use any other product again! Love you ella+mila!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just started using this....my nails chip badly at the top, after only 2 days with the polish on. Hopefully this helps from chipping.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried this brand and the nail hardening treatment because nothing else seemed to work. I saw good reviews and researched to determine that Ella and Mila does not contain dangerous chemicals.I’ve been very impressed and my nails are growing and getting stronger and stronger! They no longer peel and snap.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This stuff is magic. I started using it after I did the First Aid Kiss treatment. My nails were a mess from gels. I love the shiny quality to it so sometimes I would leave it on without putting a color over it. But now I use it as my go-to base coat. My nails are so much stronger and healthier. And I don't know if it helps but my polish lasts forever!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my 3rd time to order. I have ordered the treatment set 3 times now and I love the products. I now have nails after year and years of torture dating back to when I was in high school. I am now 60. I started getting allergic reactions to the glues and products that go along with the acrylics and that in turn irritated my cuticles and when anything touched my nail bed my cuticles were red, itchy, UGLY and my fingertips were all cut up from the irritation. I HAD TO STOP ALL fake nail products. I have tried to go back because my nails were so ugly and it was so embarrassing but I know now I can never go back because I am truly allergic. Even regular nail hardeners were irritating. Then I came across this company. I use the nail hardeners (all three in my possession), the very gently and conditioning nail polish remover, and the cuticle oils. My cuticles are still in bad shape but that isn't due to the product. I have to stop picking at them. Overall I recommend this product.
