This buffer is really solid in the hand and easy to use with the coloured sides also having the order of use printed on them so you know which side to use next. It leaves your nails smooth and shiny and ready to be painted. The only downside I found with this buffer was that the sides wore down quite quickly although purchasing a new one is easy as they can be found almost everywhere.

Tips: Putting a cuticle oil on your nails before buffing helps to keep your nails moisturised as well as helping the buffer work quicker.
I always use this little tool for my home mani/pedi's. It's a great one stop shop, leaves your nails smooth and with no jaggard edges after cutting.
My only note is that i find the actual file part not that strong so i prefer to use a glass file to get a good shape and then use this for the buffing and finishing. So it works as a great team to a stronger file
Tips: Pop in your handbag for those nail-breaking emergencies, because there's nothing worse than having a rough jaggard broken nail catching on everything for the rest of the day at work!
It reminds me of those people who stand in the malls selling that nail drop stuff then they use their "special " buffer on their 'special oil' on your nails.This does the same thing without the drops for a much cheaper price. I love this tool!
Tips: Put some bio oil on your nails then use the buffer to buff it in for extra shine and nourishment.
Makes nails nice and smooth and shiny. I have even used to buff acrylic nails and worked good on them too. Just wore out alot quicker which is to be expected. Also awesome price :)
This buffer is easy to use, though I prefer a regular file. The pads wear out quite quickly but the block is easy to handle. Next time I'll try a different brand, but this is a pretty cheap option that gets the job done.
Good value for money and does what you need it to. I like how it tells you which side first and then next for amateurs like me. The enamel gives is strong and you don't need to use it too long to get the desired effect. The only downside is that the buffer doesn't last as long as others of similar pricing but it is easy to hold and small and light enough to carry around in your make up bag.
Tips: Just make sure you note how long on each side you're doing your nails on to ensure an even finish on your nails. I try to keep my strokes consistent per finger
My friend gave me this nail buffer for my birthday. I had not seen one before so was interested in seeing how it works. I love it! It is so easy to use and handy to have the four gadgets in one easy to use tool. The emery board has worn out now but the rest still work. I've only used a nail file before so the extra features were new to me. I love those features particularly getting the shiny nails. I wouldn't be without this now, a great birthday present.
Tips: Small enough to fit in your hand bag for when you need a quick manicure.
I got mine on sale for only $5 which is a super good deal! I love how it's clearly labelled and colored so I know exactly which order to use it. It's easy to grip and the end results for my nails are always smooth and shiny.
Tips: Do not buff too aggressively! And don't use too often either as it thins your nails!
This tool is really good, it does everything. It tells you which side does what which is really handy, a great feature, which doesn't rub off either. My nails always feel so nice after using it, and i love using it on my toe nails, the buffer is awesome, it gets all the yellow/polish stain off my nails when i wear nails polish a lot. Great value and a must have nail tool!
I love that this buffer is 4 in one, including the side for shaping, rather than the standard 3 way buffer. Great little size making it much easier to handle than one of the longer buffers, and love the shiny, buffed nail look. Classy and polished :)
Tips: Careful not to over-buff as this can thin and weaken the nail.
