Growing up, I have always known of Betadine as an antiseptic ointment; if I ever had a wound or deep cut, I would use Betadine to prevent infection (trusted by my mother), and the strange yellow/brown gel like cream would do wonders.

Recently I learned that Betadine have a whole range of ointment and I was given the Betadine Fungal Nail Treatment to try out.

Luckily I don’t have any fungal infections nor do I suffer from psoriasis, but I thought it wouldn’t hurt to see what it could do on ‘normal’ toe nails.

What I did notice, after a week of using the cream (every night before I went to sleep), was that my nail bed looked shinier, smoother and the skin around the nail, which is usually dry, looked softer. There was also less discolouration on the nail bed.

Everything promised by the product, was delivered.


I am confident to say, that should I ever need a fungal cream, this would be my first choice.

It is also the perfect time to get toes, toe nails and feet looking healthier, for open toe shoe season
