## Description

desertcart.com: OPI Nail Envy Nail Strengthener, Original, 0.5 Fl Oz : Beauty & Personal Care

Review: Best Nail Strengthener I've Tried - I normally don't write reviews, but this one is sooo worth the money. I've had this for over a month now, and it's my holy grail. I've tried several nail strengtheners including the all famouse sally hansen ones, and those do not compare to this one. Small background: I'm an artist, but I also work as a security dispatcher. I use my hands a lot, whether it would be computer, phone, pushing, pulling, lifting, painting, whichever, so I am rough with my hands. This also means I'm constantly washing and sanitizing them due to cleaning work spaces very often, several times a day actually. I did not move/treat my hands any different when comparing the other products to this one. First, this one dries much quicker than the average ones: about 5-7 minutes.Personally, I still wait about 10-15 minutes before being normally rough with my hands and using them regularly. I've been fighting brittle nails for months. My nails would break even when they were only a 1mm long and would break at the pink parts of my nails (ouch..) very often. They would bend very easily as well. Nothing worked until I got my hands on this one. Usually with other nail strengtheners, there's always some sort of thick coating that you can 100% tell you have nail polish on of some sort; and they never last that long or actually help with brittle nails: they still break very easily. Other nail strengtheners work like a bandaid. When I would bend my nails, the polish strengtheners would crack like normal ones and deteriorate at a faster rate [~3days] (without bending purposely). With this one, from my experience, it goes to the root of the problem. The polish has a natural shineness and does not act as quick fix compared to others. Even when purposely bending your nails (for testing purposes), it doesn't crack and doesn't even look like anything was applied on top. Yes, orignially getting them done, will look similarly to a regular top-coat nail polish, but once it dries, it looks extremely natural. Even after a couple days, my nails look healthy and the shine on it looks like they have been buffed. It says to reapply every other day, but sometimes I go a week, and they still look good. I have pictures provided of when first applied (after cleaning up nails) and then the pic and video after is after 5 days. Also disclaimer: I started taking biotin & collagen supplements, but I've been using this nail strengthener way before i started them, so what I say still holds up. The supplements just give me extra support and make my nails and skin look a little more healthier.
Review: Worth the high price tag! - UPDATE: I’m still using this OPI Nail Envy and loving it. And so is my Mom and all the other people we have converted along the way. Honest to god, this product keeps my nails strong and long. I can’t remember the last time that I had to cut all of my nails because one of them broke. Now I only cut them when they get too long for my own comfort. I still can’t believe these are really my nails, I take a lot of pride in polishing them these days. I will be a forever customer for this particular product. I saw mention that the formula changed...I personally haven’t had any different experience with the bottles that I’ve used recently. Everything is business as usual for me and my nails. ORIGINAL REVIEW: I have been using the OPI Nail Envy Nail Strengthener (Original) all summer and my nails have been stronger and more beautiful than ever. I work in the medical field where there is lots of hand washing and moving of heavy equipment all day long which is just brutal on my nails. I also do a lot of gardening and landscaping which plays a big role in weakening my nails. I started using OPI Nail Envy as a base coat before applying my favorite color polish on top and I've notice quite a difference already in just a couple months. My nails are no longer splitting, peeling, cracking, or bending. This product dries super fast and holds on great to any polish I put on top of it. My color nail polish no longer lifts/separates from the nail, peels, or chips. It stays right in place and just wears evenly along the exposed edges of my nails. I was so impressed with this product that I had my Mom try it when she was staying with me. I forgot to ask her how she liked it before she left. I ended up buying her a bottle here on desertcart and having it shipped to her house. I got a phone call right away after it arrived and she was so thrilled to receive it because in the two weeks that she was using it while staying with me, she had noticed a real difference in her nail growth. She actually asked me where she could repurchase it when she runs out. My Mom follows the directions to a T and only applies the OPI Nail Envy on its own. She applies a coat of it every couple of days and then on day 7 takes all of the polish off and starts over. She loves it, I love it, how could you not love?! My Mom and I have different nail issues, however, this product worked great for both of us. I will definitely be repurchasing this nail strengthener when the time comes. This product is making me love polishing my nails and it's helping me get my money's worth out of the color polishes that I had stopped using because of all of my nail problems. So very happy with this product!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: My thumb nails keep splitting.  I have them cut back as far as possible but they keep splitting as they grow out.  Will this product help?**
A: Yes!  I put on 2/3 coats, appy polish and follow polish with a clear coat.  My polish use to chip after 4/5 days but stays on for 2/3 weeks now. I also take Hair revive from healthfood store  which helps hair,skin and nails and I am not sure which one did the trick but my nails are long and georgeus.  Were chipping & brittle before.  I now use it eveerytime my nails are done and will continue to do so.  A little pricy but well worth the money to have these natural nails.  Have questions on who does my nails as they look so natural.  Just laugh and say thats because they are natural.  Hope you try it as I don;t think you will be disappointed.  Nancy Lichty

**Q: How do you remove this product? it is the worst stuff I have ever put on my nails - just sticks.  goes yellowish. My nails were never this bad**
A: I use acetone polish remover to wipe off. I think it works better than non acetone. And if you have put a couple coats of colored nail polish over Nail Envy, it takes all the polish off quickly. Then I wash my nails to remove acetone residue. I’ve done this for at least 10 years or more. I’ve had no yellowing, and my nails (that use to be paper thin after using acrylics for many years) remain strong and almost unbreakable. I do keep Nail Envy on continually. It’s boosts the nail strength.

**Q: Do this product contain formaldehyde**
A: I think it does but I don't have the box anymore. Check this out too http://www.opi.net.au/nail_envy.shtml they have a bunch of nail envy products so maybe some are formaldehyde free. I have this one and the nail hardening one and I remember one of them on the box had formaldehyde in the ingredients list.

**Q: Can I use this as a base coat under colored OPI nailpolish? Would I keep reapplying over my color every day?**
A: I put two coats on as a base coat and let it dry really well. Then I put the color on and let that dry really well and then put a topcoat of this on and then add another topcoat every other day and nothing has peeled for me.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wonderful product. I'll be using it forever.
*by L***G on June 14, 2018*

This stuff is amazing. I have naturally very soft, thin nails that are brittle and break super easily. I don't bite them, but they are just always hard to grow out very much. I've tried lots of other products that made little to no difference. This nail strengthener has been AMAZING. I mean I was shocked. I have not had any breakage except for one time when my nail polish had chipped, so it was no longer on top (after 7+ days of wear). I actually have to work to keep my nails short enough to be able to do housework and type well on my computer now! Never had that problem before. I don't use it exactly as the directions say. At the beginning I used it as directed but I don't like the look of my nails without color. Now I wear two coats and put my colored nail polish on top. I use two coats of color, and then a coat of Seche Vite quick dry nail polish (also amazing if you haven't tried it), and my nails look healthy, long, and professionally done. This nail polish is also a great base coat, much better than Orly bonder. My color nail polish does not crack or budge for at least 7 days unless I REALLY pick at it a lot. I think for people who aren't fussy with their nails, it could easily make your nail polish last 10-14 days. The only negative with this strengthener is that it seems to lighten the ends of my nails a very bright white. I wouldn't have a problem with that if it were just the tips that are supposed to be lighter anyway, but it goes further than that. I'm not sure what that's about. It doesn't hurt or cause me problems but I think it would be an issue if I didn't wear color on top. For me, the strength is worth the weird coloring, but I wish I knew what was happening.
