Not that great. I went through 2 entire bottles of this and my nails are still in terrible shape. I've used this for every single manicure for almost 2 seasons of months now and I still have major...

The only way I can understand the negative reviews is that their body chemistry didn't get along with the product. I can't say that it's made my nails themselves stronger but it certainly helps the...

I find this product useless for anything and everything other than breaks and splits. Using the tea bag method with this polish has saved me allot of pain from a split under the bed of my nail....

I have weak, bending, peeling nails and have been looking for something that will make them stronger as I grow them out. I saw this one, so I decided to try it, despite the $11ca price tag. The...

I have very damaged nails. I bought this for a protective base coat. Well not even 3 hours later a huge chunk of my fresh mani just peeled off! I'm talking almost my whole thumbnail polish was...

I can't really say whether or not this product had any strengthening power on my nails because it peeled off every time I applied it within an hour or so of application. In doing so it would take...

Bought this because my nails have a tendency to split when I'm growing them out. This product says it can be used 'alone, or as a base coat'. Well, you definitely can't use it as a base coat,...

I use this as a base and top coat all the time. It dries fast and does the job. My nails feel much stronger with it than without. I don't find many top or base coats that do that job. It makes...

This product comes in a blue bottle. It's a thin acrylic gel base coat that dries quickly. The brush is thin, so an even application can be difficult. It has relatively few ingredients. It made...

Strangely mixed reviews on this one. I got the one in the blue bottle which was around $4 at Target. I have found that this makes my nails very strong. I have weak nails that peel and break easily,...

Worthless product. This stuff chips of more than any other nail product I've used. The first day it just flaked off the tips of my nails. I wouldn't waste your money. Good idea but it does nothing.

This really helped with my peeling/chipping nails - it's a little gummy but it's clear so it's not too hard to apply and not mess it up too badly. It did dry fairly quickly. I wore it for a couple...
