Revitanail Nourishing Oil Review

I really, really, really wanted to love this. But sadly, it was not love at first sight (or even love after a month of religious trial). First off, nowhere could I find what oils are in the bottle. This was a concern, as the Revitanail Strengthener contains formaldehyde. But, let's pretend it's all kosher.

Sadly, the oils are watery. If that's even a thing. It wasn't nice and thick, nor did it smell overly pleasant. The brush is quite stiff and wiry, I would have liked a dropper better. It did rub in ok, but it felt a little too greasy.

I really didn't notice any improvement in the condition of my cuticles (and trust me, they were not in tip top condition to start with). An underwhelming, unknown quantity. I'll stick to my Skinfood Coco+Nut oil, or just good old Rosehip thanks.

Off the bat I can't say I'm a fan but I can't say I hate this oil. It is quite thin, but it sinks into my cuticles well. Unfortunately it does leave a oily film on my fingertips after rubbing it in, so I end up having to wipe my hands (not around my nails) before doing anything more. The brush is quite coarse, but not too worried about that given I just gently use it to deposit the oil.

My cuticles are in slightly better condition than they were, they still don't look great, but they don't catch on things as easily. One good thing about the oil is that it didn't hurt if it touched cuts/dermatitis, which is something I struggle with when it comes to nail products.

All up, I wanted to see more for everyday application for almost 4 weeks. Wouldn't buy myself.

I have been using this cuticle oil for around three weeks, so have had a good amount of time to properly try this product out. I have used it every day 2-3 times during the day. But.. Unfortunately.. I have not seen much difference in my cuticles :( I have noticed my cuticles are lower down my nail which is good, but the skin and cuticles around my nails are still quite dry and cracked.

This has a very light, thin oily texture, and has a slight herb smell - quite pleasant though.

My nails/fingertips feel nice after applying this and rubbing it in, but dries really quickly. I feel like I have to almost apply it again 10 seconds later.

I would recommend this to anyone that has normal nails, but for people with severely dry and cracked cuticles/skin around the nails, I think something a bit more hearty is needed.

On the plus side, this feels great on nails after applying the Revitanail nail strengthener.

After being sent the product to trial alongside the Retivanail Nail Strengthener, I followed the instructions and applied it once a day after letting the Strengthener dry.

It felt nice going on, it made my cuticles shiny however wasn’t overly greasy which was nice. It was easy to apply, and I love that a little goes a long way so it will last a super long time. I found the brush wasn’t too stiff or anything, so it was easy enough to apply. At $17 RRP though? No, I definitely wouldn’t repurchase. It felt and looked nourishing going on, but my cuticles look like they are in exactly the same condition they were at the beginning of the trial - they are still torn on some of my nails, and quite rough. I was applying the oil almost everyday, so it is quite disappointing to not see a noticeable result. Maybe I needed to apply a lot more?

I will continue to use it and I hope there is a change. However, since I’m used to applying a cuticle oil daily now, I’ll probably start using a couple of other cuticle oils I have received in the past (but didn’t get into the habit of using) instead to see if they make a noticeable difference. I feel like there is probably a much better alternative out there that probably comes at a better price point - potentially even a nice hand cream might give better results, plus be multi purpose!

I'm not sold on this product completely. I've given it a pretty good shot and have applied it daily, usually twice a day (morning and night). It's super easy to apply and feels really nice, also has a slight scent which is quite pleasant.

However I'm not too sure if it is a necessary step. While I have been using this I have stopped using my usual hand cream, but feel like this oil doesn't offer anything more than I can get from a hand cream. The skin around my nails has still been feeling a bit hard and dry, apart from when I first apply it. I think this could be something handy to keep in a handbag as it is smaller than a hand cream.

I'm going to keep trialing this though along with the matching polish, maybe my hands are just in a terrible state haha!

I like a several of the Revitanail products, but this one let me down a little. The main issue I have is the brush - it's quite coarse, and feels weird when applying the oil. The oil itself is fine, rubs into the cuticles fine, no offensive smell. If only the brush was not coarse plastic - a dropper would have been better. Good sized bottle.

I added this into my revitanail routine morning and night massaging it into my cuticles. This gave a good amount of nourishment to my nails, and I felt that it was easily absorbed into my nails. I have noticed a little bit of peeling around my nails and wonder if it possibly gave too much moisture for this to happen.

The oil isn’t scented which is nice, so i don’t have to worry about overpowering fragrance. The bottle size is the same as the revitanail so should last quite some time. Overall I’m happy with my results my nails are looking really healthy which they haven’t in quite some time so I think the oil works well in the revitanail regime.

This subtle smelling oil is a great nail oil. I find this product thin, yet moisturising. I use this 3-4 times a week, I find its better using it a night as it gives it time to really soak into my nail beds. I feel that this product has improved my nails by way of reduced peeling and chipping.

I got to review this product thanks to a review trial I was selected for. This product comes in a nice black and red box with a picture of the product on side. I thought the packaging looked real smart.

I really enjoyed using this product. It had the look and feel of when you have just had your nails done at the salon. Nails looked healthier, conditioned and cared for. I used this product daily after using the Revitanail Nail Strengthener. I love the ease of using this product and the results from using it. Is definitely something that I would continue using and potentially purchase in the future.

This oil was non greasy and made the cuticles and surrounding skin on the fingers soft. It didn't leave your fingers greasy, once you finished rubbing it in, you just wipe your fingers and it's good. I think that it did condition my nails well.
