Nail Buffer

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.

Great!

I love this, it is easy to use and the words on each side make it easy to remember which side you want for what.

I like that the 'flie' side is not too coarse and still effective.

It buffs my nails up super smooth and shiny... it's great!

Good

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!

Not abrasive enough for my stubborn nails

I have a new found pamper session thanks to my best friend and it's keeping my nails on point and looking gorgeous with polish. In order for this to happen my nails need to be in the best possible shape so I bought this to help keep them on point. I paid $7.50 for mine so got it for less than RRP which was a score.

I love that it's numbered and the instructions are clear, starting from number one and going on until you reach the fourth. I find that step 1, although I don't want to take off too much nail is far too soft to get anything off in a hurry. It needs to be two levels grittier than it currently is to get anywhere. I do enjoy the other steps because it gives my nails shine and makes them look their best without visiting a salon. I find that I have to use a more abrasive file first and then go on to step 1.

I find step 1 is great for removing left over nail polish that I forgot though as well as the yellow tinge that is left after nail polish is removed. The buffer which is step 4 leaves my nails simply shiny. I am almost waiting for it to sparkle and twinkle like they do in cartoons, it's that shiny.

Using this before hand just makes it so much easier for the nail polish to go on smoothly and have a more satin finish than if I just slop the polish on unbuffed and unshaped nails. Although step 1 doesn't work like it says I still love it and highly recommend.

Tips: If the step 1 isn't abrasive enough for you like it was for me; file first with a normal file and then use it as a second step.

Beautiful Smooth Nails

I love these nail bars! They are an amazing product! They are the saviour between manicures, when you want to bring health back to your nails and keep them looking (and feeling) lovely. This product is a four step process which buffs the surface of the nail very gently to remove the bumps and then polishes it up to look very shiny. The effect lasts for days and is a great alternative to using a clear top coat nail polish. Would recommend!

Smooth and Shiny

I have a love/hate relationship with my nails. Every few months I become sick of the sight of them, and will get acrylics for 3-4 months, before deciding to go au natural again. By this point, they are worse than before - rough, dull and out of shape. The Manicare 4-Way Nail Buffer is exactly where I start. I have a quick tidy around the edges, before smoothing and shining. The smoothing and shining is really where this $10 product is magical. I have seen no other product that smoothes and shines the natural nail, without the help of a polish or treatment. I smooth off any ridges and then shine, shine, shine. To be honest, I often do follow with a nail hardener that adds extra shine, but if the condition of your nails isn't so terrible, you certainly wouldn't need to. I finish with a lovely hand cream and my hands look like they've had a trip to the salon.

If you are wanting some at-home manicure goodness, this is the perfect product to add into your routine. This is also great for anyone in a job where they can't wear nail polish, or for those who don't want to fuss around with their nails as it gives a quick, clean, natural finish.

Tips: Add this into your manicure routine.

I invested in one of these after I had my acrylic nails off to go back to natural nails. My nails were in terrible condition so I followed the steps no 1 green file nail which it did then step 2 purple remove ridges yip did that and I had plenty. Step 3 white buff & smooth and yes I am impressed so far. Step 4 grey polish & shine wow my nails look really shiny. This is so easy to use and you get professional looking nails it only takes 5 minutes and your done great looking nails

Tips: I use a clear polish to keep my nails looking good an natural

Manicare nail buffer 4 way

This great tool does it all. One of the great features is it tells you on each side exactly what it is for, too easy. I love the fact that the emery side is not too harsh and it dosent leave your nails rough. My favourite part is the buffer. When I dont use nail polish I always buff and my nails are left super shiny and looking healthy. A good value all round nail tool.
