Price: 

Rs. 200. I got it for Rs.160 online

My Experience:

I’m sure many of you have already hopped on to the glass nail file bandwagon. If not, then what are you waiting for? Do it now! So for those of you who are not sure about this product, let me explain to you briefly about the benefits of using a glass nail file.

First and foremost they are durable. Since they are permanently etched, they will never get worn out. If you take proper care, they will last you for lifetime.

Secondly, glass nail files do not damage your nails. Nail files made of steel are too rough on your nails and will result in cracking or chipping of your nails. Whereas glass nail files are very gentle on your nails and won’t crack or chip your nails.

Thirdly, compared to steel nail files, glass nail files are easier to clean. You all know that emery files cannot be cleaned with water. But glass nail files can be easily cleaned by running them under hot or cold water. You can also sterilize them and the most important fact is that glass nail files are more hygienic than other nail files as glass files are not porous, and they don’t absorb water which creates a breeding ground for bacteria.

By now I guess you all are convinced about this product. So now let me give you my take on this nail file.

Basicare Glass Nail File is packaged in a transparent nail file case. The nail file is white and purple in colour which makes it attractive. I feel the case is not good enough to protect the nail file just in case you drop it or place it under pressure. Glass nail files are fragile and you can’t store them anywhere. You need a special case.

The nail file has polished edges which will not harm your nails. The nail file is ideal for natural as well as acrylic nails. Always file in one direction from the sides of the nail towards the center. The process of filing nails is so much smoother compared to other nail files. You do not get that irritating sound, no rough edges and nails can be filed faster. Just two or three swipes are enough to shape your nails thus saving your time.

Once you are done with the filing process, you will notice a lot of white nail residue on the file. You can easily clean it with running water and soap and it looks as good as new.

Since I am a bit clumsy, while filing my nails I sit on my bed just in case I end up dropping the nail file! The nail file does look tough but I don’t want to take a chance.

PROS:

• Gentle on your nails
• Durable- does not wear out
• No irritating sounds
• Nails can be filed faster
• Cost effective since it will last for long
• Can be used for filing natural as well as acrylic nails

CONS:

• Fragile
• I wish it was packaged in a sturdy case for better storage

Rating: 5/5

Do I Recommend?:

A big yes! This product is for all. Once you start using this file you won’t look back at your old ones.

Would I Repurchase?:

No! Unless I break it accidentally! This one will last a lifetime.
