Review:
Glass files and I have had a bad relationship up until this point. Quality is the name of the game in this type of item and this Germanikure file is pretty amazing. I'm horrible at filing my nails to begin with and then having a bad file just makes it worse. I can say that since using this file that I've not had any splitting issues or snags from filing too much. I wanted to try this file because I'd watched a couple Youtube videos featuring them from people I trusted so I was willing to give it a go. I would definitely purchase this brand of file again. No questions asked. The quality is high plus they have cute sayings engraved on the handles. Do you nails a favor and try one out.
Company info:
GERmanikure crystal glass files are created in the Czech Republic from thick Bohemian glass and specially formulated and tempered against breaking. The texture on this file is chemically etched directly into the 3mm thick glass and is impossible to wear off, while cheaper imitations can be scraped clean with a simple penny. Chemical etching gently removes a portion of the surface of the file, leaving behind random evenly placed rounded peaks. As a result, this file doesn't have any irregular peaks or valleys on the surface. It can actually be used either wet or dry, in both directions without causing microscopic frays and gouges on either nails or cuticles.
Imprinted with an inspirational, spiritual, motivational, or humorous phrase, each file is perfect for conveying a message, mantra, or belief. Rather than making each phrase appear in bold high contrast, GERmanikure opted for simple sandblasted print for the handles in gentle colors to make the message appear subtly and unobtrusively. In most light, the message on the file handle appears lit from within. Use the file as a meditative tool as you shape your nails. The subtle imprint on the handle has a delicate texture, to help remind you to center your thoughts. Each message is unique, just like you. Whether you want to remind someone you care, convey inspiration, or make a friend laugh, the GERmanikure line of crystal glass nail files are sure to please.
Seal the Nail Surface
Nail files with a grit added to the surface exhibit sharp peaks and irregular valleys in the texture that can gouge or scratch the nail surface. GERmanikure Czech glass nail files are crafted with a uniform surface texture that results in a smooth, polished nail edge that reduces the risk of cracking and delamination. Don’t sand your nails, seal them.
Hygienic and Sterilizable
Glass itself has natural antibacterial/anti-fungal qualities, cleans up easily with simple soap and water, and is durable enough to hold up to a chemical bath or high heat sterilizer. Unlike cheaper glass “files” there are no microscopic crevices and cracks in the surface of this crystal glass file that will harbor fungus, bacteria, or dead skin particles.
Use Wet or Dry
GERmanikure glass nail files work equally well wet or dry, on natural nails, acrylics, or even just rough, callused areas of skin. Whatever you want to smooth, these glass files are strong and durable enough to do the job.
Dual Direction Filing
Unlike single direction files that “sand” the nail, a crystal glass nail file seals the edge of the nail with every stroke, regardless whether that stroke is backwards, forwards, or a combination of both. After filing with a crystal glass nail file and examined at many times magnification, a freshly filed nail edge is smooth and polished; a nail that is filed with a “sanded” nail file have microscopically frayed edges.
Tough and Durable
GERmanikure crystal glass files aren’t as brittle as you might think. The files are crafted of 3mm thick authentic Bohemian glass which is chemically hardened and tempered to resist breaking. This special glass treatment not only enhances the clarity and sparkle of the glass, but also adds resiliency. While breakage is possible with all glass, dropping a GERmanikure crystal glass file from a short distance (such as counter height to floor) will, in most cases, not break the file.
Leather Case
Even though this thick bohemian glass file is crafted of the finest hardened Czech crystal and designed to last for decades, GERmanikure goes a step further. This file comes complete with a custom fitted grey leather sleeve to provide additional protection. Leather is naturally cushioning and dehumidifying. The case will prevent damage to the file when it is not in use as well as additional shock absorption in case the file is accidentally dropped when not in use.
Patented Authenticity
This heirloom quality nail file is produced under patent in the Czech Republic. Look for the authentic holographic label containing the patent number on every file.
GERmanikure believes in long tool life, healthful living, and good environmental stewardship. Each glass file is handcrafted in the Czech Republic by trained adult artisans paid a living wage. This item is guaranteed free from unethical workmanship such as forced labor or child labor.
