Description
What is Clearnail 4ml Paint?
Clearnail 4ml Paint is an easy-to-apply topical treatment used to help manage mild to moderate fungal infections of the fingernails or toenails. The liquid is applied directly onto the affected nail using the built-in brush, where it forms a thin film. With regular use as directed on the packaging, Clearnail 4ml Paint can help improve the cosmetic appearance of discoloured, thickened or damaged nails.
Fungal nail infections can cause the nail to become yellow or brown, brittle, crumbly at the edge or thickened and irregular. These changes often develop slowly over time and may affect one or several nails. While fungal nail infections are usually not serious for otherwise healthy people, they can be persistent and may take several months to improve. Using a topical product like Clearnail 4ml Paint consistently, alongside good foot and nail hygiene, can support the gradual appearance of a clearer, healthier-looking nail surface.
Key benefits of Clearnail 4ml Paint
- Topical treatment for mild to moderate fungal nail infections.
- Easy-to-use brush applicator for direct application onto the nail surface.
- Forms a protective film over the nail that helps create an unfavourable environment for fungi.
- Designed to improve the cosmetic look of thickened, discoloured nails over time.
- Compact 4 ml size – ideal for home use and for taking along when travelling.
Clearnail 4ml Paint is most effective when used at the first signs of a fungal nail infection and when combined with everyday measures such as keeping the feet clean and dry, wearing breathable footwear and changing socks regularly.
How to use Clearnail 4ml Paint
Always read the package insert and follow the instructions carefully. The general directions for use are usually similar to the steps below:
- Wash the affected hand or foot and dry the nails thoroughly, including the areas between the toes.
- If recommended on the packaging, gently file or trim any loose, thickened or brittle nail material. Do not share nail files or clippers with other people.
- Before the first application, make sure old nail polish or cosmetic products are removed from the nail.
- Using the brush, apply a thin layer of Clearnail 4ml Paint over the entire affected nail and, if instructed, slightly under the free edge of the nail.
- Allow the liquid to dry completely. This will form a clear film on the nail surface.
- Apply the product as often as indicated in the instructions (for example once daily), preferably at the same time each day.
- Continue treatment for the full recommended duration. Nail growth is slow, and it may take several months for a new healthy-looking nail to grow through.
- If you accidentally miss an application, apply the next dose as soon as you remember and then continue with your regular schedule.
Do not stop using Clearnail 4ml Paint too early, even if the nail starts to look better. If there is no visible improvement after the recommended course of treatment, or if the condition appears to be getting worse, speak to a doctor or pharmacist for further advice.
Important warnings and precautions
- For external use on nails only. Do not swallow.
- Do not apply to broken skin, open wounds, very inflamed areas or the skin around the eye.
- Avoid contact with the eyes and mucous membranes. If this happens accidentally, rinse well with plenty of water and seek medical advice if needed.
- People with diabetes, poor circulation, a weakened immune system or severe nail changes should talk to a Healthcare Professional before self-treating fungal nails.
- Do not use Clearnail 4ml Paint if you are allergic to any of the ingredients listed on the packaging.
- Keep out of sight and reach of children and store in a cool, dry place with the cap firmly closed.
- If you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy or breastfeeding, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before use.
General hygiene tips for fungal nail infections
- Wash and dry your feet thoroughly every day, paying special attention to the spaces between the toes.
- Choose breathable socks and shoes and change them regularly, especially after exercise.
- Wear sandals or flip-flops in communal showers, gym changing rooms and around public swimming pools.
- Do not share nail scissors, clippers or files with other people.
- Keep nails neatly trimmed, but avoid cutting them too short or damaging the surrounding skin.
Ingredients
Clearnail 4ml Paint contains active and inactive ingredients specially chosen for application on the nail surface. The combination forms a film across the nail plate, helping to keep the active ingredient in contact with the affected area. Always check the product label for the full list of ingredients and possible allergens.
Who can use Clearnail 4ml Paint?
This product is generally intended for adults and older children with mild to moderate fungal nail infections where only part of the nail is affected. It may not be suitable if:
- More than half of the nail surface is damaged.
- The infection reaches the nail matrix (the area under the base of the nail).
- Several nails are severely deformed or painful.
In these cases, or if you are unsure whether your nail changes are caused by fungi or something else such as psoriasis or injury, it is best to consult a doctor, podiatrist or dermatologist for a proper assessment and treatment plan.
