Toenail Softener for Thick Hard Toenails - Safe for Seniors & All Ages - Fast-Acting Toenail Softening Cream - Non Greasy Nail Cream Formulated with Natural Aloe Vera (1 Ounce Tube (Pack of 1))

After 30+ years Infantry active service (now retired), caring for my feet became an essential routine: Best socks (with a dry pair in backup), best boots, always have a can of foot powder in a gear pouch, moleskin, keep my toenails clipped . . . there are few body parts an Infantryman has to depend on more than his feet. Well into my 70s now, and I still inspect my feet daily. A challenge I had not anticipated was the degradation of my flexibility (I routinely curse gravity . . . yeah, I know it keeps us on the planet, but couldn't we get some kinda senior credit, like 25% less) which makes it difficult to contort myself to clip my nails, 2 of which have become prone to becoming ingrown. So, I started researching a new foot care technique . . . and found this stuff. If you have rock hard nails or tend to ingrown nails, BUY THIS. This morning I slathered it on my biggest toenail challenge (left big toe), left it for 1.5 hours (probably didn't need to wait that long) and the nail flexed like a piece of paper. Five seconds with a pro-grade pair of nail clippers (lots of good ones, I picked the Wanmat Toe Kit via Amazon) and it was good to go. I have tried several other products, but this one simply does the job better. I sometime use a foot bath (again, lots of good ones, I picked the Homedic Foot Spa) to soften the skin, but the softener works well by itself.

It works , you need to use it a few times a day a few days. My friends mom has thick nails that goes up not out so they were very hard. We put it on 3x a day for 7 days then I came and trimmed her nails . It was amazing.

Following directions made trimming my agy thickened toenails easier.

Not heavy duty

This MIGHT work, but I didn't know that it takes overnight to soften nails. I didn't want to wait this long, so I returned them without opening the package.

Not sure yet. Came in mail fast though

Good product, is soft, smells good and easy to apply.

I used it as the directions suggested, and put a bandaid over the toenail after applying the product. Then I left the bandaid on overnight. It worked beautifully and I was able to reduce excess toenail thickness. Used a anti fungal application hours earlier too.
