NAIL WITH TRANSVERSAL GROOVES?
CONCERN
Transversal grooves run horizontally across the nail plate and typically originate from a disruptive event at the nail matrix — a significant infection, trauma, or illness. In cases of recurring conditions such as eczema or repeated manicure trauma, wave-like ridges may appear across the nail separated by areas of normal growth.
SOLUTION
Horizontal ridges are the nail's record of a past disruption — and they will grow out, given proper support. Massage Nailactan treatment cream into the nail base each night to nourish the matrix and promote the growth of smoother, more regular nails from the root forward. For persistent or recurring grooves, we recommend consulting a dermatologist for a complete diagnosis and a tailored treatment plan.
MAVALA CARES
We care about the planet. We aim to minimise our impact on the environment through the following measures:
Ingredients
We source our ingredients and raw materials from the nearest suppliers in Switzerland to reduce our carbon footprint. We also increasingly use ingredients that are readily biodegradable. In particular, we do not use plastic microbeads nor cyclopentasiloxane (D5), which contribute to ocean pollution.
Packaging
Whenever possible, we package our products without a box or cellophane and in recycled and recyclable materials (including plastic and glass) to reduce waste. We have also implemented clear labelling on product packaging to assist you in knowing which part of the packaging can be recycled and how.
Manufacturing
Whenever possible, we manufacture under cold conditions to reduce energy consumption. We are also implementing strict waste separation and recycling processes in our production site and warehouses, including that of our Canadian distributor.
