I tried No Bite...and I'm still biting
I am a life-long nail biter. I know it's an awful habit, but after more than 30 years, I just can't seem to kick it. One of the tools I have tried in my various attempts to stop biting my nails is Orly No Bite. And maybe it's just me, maybe I'm just incorrigible, but this product did not work for me at all. No Bite is easy to apply; it comes in a little bottle just like nail polish, and you just brush it on and wait a few minutes for it to dry. It dried quickly and invisibly; you couldn't tell from looking that I had it on my nails. It was inexpensive and convenient. Those are all the good things about it. The bad thing is that it didn't deter me from biting my nails. No Bite does have a mildly bad bitter taste. However, it wasn't all that terrible. And I found that if I just sort of pulled my tongue back into my mouth while biting, I could still bite and not taste the bitterness at all. (This was really my own fault; I shouldn't have tried to find a way not to taste the product. However, I did find a way, and it was way too easy.) Also, the bitter taste wore off fairly quickly. I think the failure of No Bite comes both from the fact that I am an incurable nail biter and the fact that it's just not that great of a product.
