What Undecylenic Acid is and its role in Nail Defender
Undecylenic acid is a fatty acid obtained from castor oil. It has been used for decades in foot- and skin-care products because it is light, oily and blends easily into sprays.
It is the first name on the Nail Defender label, so the whole formula is organised around it: a daily spray that works on the outer surface of the nail, where dullness and rough texture show up first.
Clove Oil stands next to it as its botanical partner.
