    ONLY product that healed my nails!!!

    I'd had acrylics for 15+ yrs, damaging my nail beds. I then tried the nail stickers for a few yrs, hoping they'd recover. Nope. I happened upon Damage Control at CVS & thought I'd give it a try. Best. Decision. EVER. Took 5 months of following directions exactly, but my nail beds no longer peel, split or are ridged. I wish I'd taken "before" photo, but I honestly thought this product would be like the many others--and fail. It has given me healthy, growing nails again, and I'm SO HAPPY!! Thank you, THANK YOU for this product, Ella+Mila. ❤ I'm very grateful.

    Amazing

    I’m a physical therapist assistant that does aquatic therapy exclusively, so I’m in a chlorine pool 5 days a week. My nails were strugglinggggggg. I got this a month or so ago and used it religiously the past 3 weeks and OMG my nails are SO MUCH BETTER. they look great and I am super pleased.

    Strong Stuff

    I use this over my First Aid Kiss. It's a little stiffer and keeps my nails from breaking, especially if I accidentally hit my hands on something.

    I was a nail tech for 20 years

    I did nails and also wore acrylics for over 30 years and the last few years I have been using ella+mila

    This nail product is the very best!!! And the Damage Control works better than any strengthener I've tried. I love it and my nails have never looked so great and healthy. And I will never wear acrylic nails again. I tell everyone about this product. Please never get rid of this nail line.
