In one line
Lavender oil is the soothing botanical in the Nail Defender formula, listed as Lavandula angustifolia.
Where it comes from
True lavender grows as a purple-flowered shrub, native to the Mediterranean and now farmed around the world. The oil is steamed from the flower spikes.
Its job on the label
The brand describes lavender oil as a soothing botanical with calming properties.* It softens the feel of the spray and rounds out the botanical pair with clove.
Works alongside
Lavender sits with clove oil in the botanical pair, and with aloe leaf extract on the soothing side.
A small everyday tip
Spray after a warm shower or at bedtime, when your hands and feet are relaxed and your nails are clean and dry.
