I'm a fan of the Ms Manicure range, all the items are brightly coloured and the packaging's cute too which tends to attract my attention! I bought this on recommendation from my sister after my ordinary nail buffer wore out. The block itself is a nice size to hold, it's easy to grip and is therefore easier to control than a flat emery-board-style nail buffer. Whilst the buffing surfaces themselves are fairly rigid the block they're stuck to is quite spongy, not so much that the shape deforms during use but enough so that you're prevented from buffing with too much pressure. A nice idea as I sometimes over-buff my nails without realising - whilst watching tv ...  Read the complete review

The nails on our hands should always be cared for- male or female! I have found this 4 way smoothing block to be an excellent edition to the (many) tools in my make up bag and with regular use has made my nails look fab. The 4 way smoothing block differ from bog standard emery boards- it has 4 sides and thus for beautiful looking nails you need to follow 4 easy steps. Step 1 - labeled file nail edge (pink side) is used as an emery board to neaten the ends of the nails- this should be used in one direction at all times i.e. right to left- rubbing side to side will damage the nails. Step 2- labeled remove ridges (green side) this is swept over the face of the ...  Read the complete review

I have been using Ms Manicure 4 way smoothing block for several years now, and find it to be one of the most useful nail products I own. The product is basically a block of what seems to be a quite solid foam, and each side has a strip glued to it, which has a different function for your nails. We have: Side 1 - 'File nail edge': Unfortunately, this side of the block, in my opinion, is the most useless! It's a very fine grit nail file, and although it does file the nail edge, it's very gentle, so I tend to have to use a separate nail file with harsher grains. This is good if the edge of your nail has become quite sharp, as it will soften ...  Read the complete review

I have used this block for many years. I first used one when I was in cosmetology and loved it. This manicure block has any kinds of buffing or filing surface you would need to make you nails look like a million dollars. It is so easy to use and very simple. The ones we had were numbered in the order that you were supposed to use them of course because we were learning students. I loved this smoothing block so much I bought one for myself at home. I know that there is something that alot of people do wrong when using this block though. When they file their nails they use a side to side motion. You are not supposed to do this. You are supposed to go in one direction as ...  Read the complete review
