Bitter Gold by Amanda Nail Serum is an amazing nail strengthening serum with a secret. It’s a translucent, odorless serum polish that goes on clear and magically disappears into the nail with nothing left behind except stronger nails. The serum contains a cocktail of ingredients:
- Silica and Biotin to strengthen and harden nails as they grow
- Vitamin E and Aloe to soften dry skin around nails to prevent hangnails.
With Bitter Gold, nails are healthier and less likely to break. They are free to grow longer!
And the secret is that Bitter Gold has an unappealing, bitter taste. Why, you ask? To discourage nail biters from biting their nails and the skin around the nails. In fact, Bitter Gold even comes with a silicone gold and black beaded bracelet that can be used as an anti-anxiety device to play with instead of biting nails. How cool is that? Plus the bracelet is cute to wear. 😀
As a kid, I used to bite my nails. I remember my mother scolding me to try to get me to stop. Eventually, I “grew out of it”, but it took years. Bitter Gold is a much quicker way to get results. In fact, nail biting was the impetus behind Bitter Gold. Amanda, the founder, started her Canadian-based business because she had been a nail biter herself. When she was anxious or stressed out, she would bite her nails and also the dry skin around her nails. She admitted that the habit continued beyond childhood, and she often wasn’t even aware she was doing it. She finally stopped the habit, and developed Bitter Gold by Amanda to help others stop nail-biting.
In addition to Bitter Gold Nail Serum, Amanda has developed a program with nail tips plus a 30 day challenge that looks like it would be very helpful to those who are trying to break the habit.
I don’t bite my nails anymore, but I still LOVE using Bitter Gold. Although I take 10,000 mcg of biotin everyday, in the winter my nails have a tough time. This winter, the nail on my thumb on my right hand started to split. I was very upset by that. Since I started using Bitter Gold about a month ago, the split has begun to knit itself back together. It’s not an overnight thing, but it is healing. Also, my nails are noticeably stronger and harder. Plus they just look better. The tips look a little whiter than usual, too.
Bitter Gold should be used every day, twice a day if you can. It can even be used on top of nail polish. It takes just a minute to brush it on,
and mere seconds to dry so there’s no excuse not to apply it. If you are a nail and skin biter or if you have dry skin around the nails, apply Bitter Gold to the skin around the nails too.
Bitter Gold is cruelty-free, paraben-free and alcohol-free. It is made in Canada.
Bitter Gold by Amanda Nail Serum contains 12 ml/0.4 fl. oz. is priced at $9.99 and if you choose to buy the silicone anti-stress beaded bracelet along with Bitter Gold, the price is $14.99. Bitter Gold is sold on the Bitter Gold website.

This sounds so effective, and your nails look great! The price is affordable, too!
I think Bitter Gold is such a smart product since it offers multiple benefits at an affordable price. I think it would be a real boon to nail biters.
Sounds like a wonderful product. I used to bite my nails until they bled. It was a horrible habit but I just couldn’t stop. It took everything I had to finally stop. I didn’t want bitten nails for my wedding. Unfortunately I started again but no more. I wish this had been around then.
I know! I wish this had been around when we were younger. I don’t remember anything to help stop nail biting. What I love about Bitter Gold is that has strengthened my nails, is helping knit back the split in my thumb, and it’s helping heal a crack in my skin at the corner of my thumb. What a mess my poor thumb was this winter!
I bite the skin around my nails, after kicking the actual nail biting habit! I could use this for sure.
Bitter Gold Nail Serum really helps your nails and it does soften the skin around the nails and also makes it taste bitter so you don’t want to bite it. At $9.99, it is definitely worth trying because you get two benefits in one
I’m going to have to share this with a friend of mine who’s constantly biting her nails. And it’s a great price!
First time I’ve heard/read about nail serum, sounds inventive. I was germophobe growing up so I didn’t have nailbiting experience, thankfully
You were lucky that you were a germophobe! Wish I had had this when I was a kid, but now I really like it especially to help strengthen my nails in the cold weather. In Hawaii, I don’t think you have winter dry nails!
Luckily I’ve never been a nail biter, but I love the protective aspects of this.
You are lucky that you never had the nail biting habit. It took me a long time to “grow out of it”. I think Amanda was smart to create a product that has several important nail benefits that most people can use.
I am up for anything that will help my nails look better and be stronger! I’ve put them through hell throughout the years and I’m trying to be better about taking care of them!
I’m very impressed with Bitter Gold! I love that it’s so easy to apply, it sinks in and disappears instantly, and my nails started feeling stronger and looking healthier very quickly. Plus it’s affordable!
I don’t bit my nails, but I would love this as a nail strengthener
This sounds like a great option for nail biters.
I’ve never been a nail biter (thank goodness) but I love that they add in a bracelet to help with anxiety and to prevent nail biting. I know there are other nail companies with bitter flavoring to discourage biting, but it sounds like this company went above and beyond.
I was never mich of a biter, but instead a nail fidgeter and would tear my nails super short. I don’t any longer, but this sounds like a great product to help nails stay strong! The bracelet would have been perfect for me years ago to help with my anxiety!
I’ve heard of these serums for nail biters! Winter is tough on my nails too. I need all the moisture
This sounds really nice!!! I love that you can use on top of polish!!!
I need a nail strengthener because Ilove to peel off my gel polish. causes so much damage but I hate soaking in acetone
Luckily I have never been a nail biter but this sounds like a good conditioner, too.
