OPI Nail Envy Nail Strengthener | Clear & Opaque Crème Nail Polish Treatment | Strengthen Weak & Thin Nails

I got this OPI nail strengthener after my nails became weak and brittle from using a gel nail polish brand that didn’t work out well. What I like about it is that it goes on easily and is clear, so if it starts to peel (which didn’t happen for quite a while), it isn’t very noticeable. I also love that it really helped my nails feel stronger and a bonus that it dried quickly. Just make sure to follow the directions for the best results. Great value for the money. I would definitely recommend it.

One gel manicure in advance of a long trip and my nails were totaled. Thin, peeling, cracking and it went on for months. My sister had same experience after a gel manicure and she found this product and told me about it. It work extremely well at restoring your natural nails but you need to keep up with it. Miracle product but it won’t fix your nail permanently overnight. It takes almost a year.

I can see this making my nails a little stronger than they were when the gel polish was taken off 3 days ago. I did 2 coats of the nail strengthener, 2 coats of a sheer dnd color and one more coat of the strengthener. It dries quickly, but I do a lot of check writing at work and where my pointer finger touches the pen, the polish gets pushed up and reveals my bare nail. It’s polish, but it’s not 100% hard like polish. It doesn’t chip like polish either. It lifts and little pieces peel off, but it’s not a lot. I’m going to keep using it and see if I can stand my nails without gel for a while. I got the shade, pink to envy and it’s basically a clear coat.

First pic is April 22, 2024, before any nail envy. Second pic is April 23, the day I first applied. Third pic is April 29. I’d been getting my nails done with gel X in October to stop biting them. It got pricey and I didn’t feel like I was going to bite them anymore so I stopped getting sets in early March. My natural nails have always been weak and bendy due to biting with shortened nail beds as a result. Having gel x solved the biting and allowed my nail beds to recover and lengthen, and my nails are a lot stronger for it, but they still need a little help while the portion of my nails that had been filed down for gel x grow out. This is only 1 week of use but I think it’s helpful. It at least makes the rougher surface of the nail look smooth in a way regular polish wouldn’t. I do think it adds some structure as well. Two of my nails broke (middle and pinky) in the last week but that’s not nail envy’s fault, that’s just damage from gel x growing out. I have been maintaining them with regular filing when the edge of my nail gets scraggly even while using nail envy and I think that is helping too. Tips 1: It dries quickly, but it’s sort of deceptive - it stays malleable for a while after being dry to the touch, and if you get a wrinkle in it it WILL bubble and peel off. So even once “dry”, try not to touch anything that could mess with them for about an hour so they fully harden. I apply it when I know I’ll just be typing or doing something on my phone so I know I won’t mess with it before it cures. Tip 2: THIN layers. You want enough on the brush that you don’t have to dip back in to the bottle to get more so you can cover the nail without it being streaky, but not any more than that or it’ll stay malleable for too long. Tip 3: by the third our fourth layer, it usually bubbles after you put it on and is prone to peeling anyway, so honestly I just modify the instructions and have only been aiming to get a total of 3-4 layers on. I’m not sure how to get it to make it to a total of 8 layers (2 first day and 6 from daily applications). Oh well. I like it anyway!

This stuff is AMAZING!! Gel polish literally destroyed my nails. My nails started to break and peel from the gel polish. My nails were weak and damaged. A friend told me to use this product. Within one week, YES one week, my nails looked better and became stronger. One month later, my nails are 10000% stronger! I only need a manicure and can wear my nails natural without polish. OPI products are superior and I NEVER use another brand. This company does not test on animals and it’s a vegan formula. The polish is a milky color and looks natural on nails. The smell is fine. Just smells like normal nail polish. The bottle size is the same as regular OPI nail polish. Nice shine.

My little brother treated me to SNS nails for my birthday, and I hadn’t had them in a couple of years. Unfortunately, life (and weather) got in the way — I missed my follow-up appointment and ended up going way too long without having them properly removed. One nail started lifting, and when I saw how thin and fragile my natural nail was underneath, it honestly scared me a bit. I ended up removing them myself (not something I recommend — definitely better to have them professionally removed), and then focused on getting my nails back to normal. This is one of the products I started using, along with keeping my nails trimmed and taking better care of them overall. The quality is excellent. The formula applies smoothly, has a clean texture, and there’s no overwhelming smell. It dries well and doesn’t feel heavy or sticky. Over time, I noticed a real improvement. My nails started to feel stronger, looked healthier, and within about two months, they were back to normal. It arrived well-packaged with no issues, and for the price, this is absolutely worth it — especially if you’re trying to recover from damage. This has become something I’ll continue to keep in my routine. #AmazonFinds #AmazonFine #Chihuahuamom #Dobermanmom #LuxeLife #MindfulLuxury #IntentionalLiving #ConsciousLiving #NailCare #HealthyNails #SelfCarePractice #BeautyRoutine #RecoveryRoutine #EverydayLuxury

My podiatrist recommended this brand for strengthening my nails. I've used it on my hands and toes. For some years it worked quite well and then it seemed like the formula changed and it chips easily so I can't leave it on my nails more than a day or two. That is disappointing. I liked the color and that it dried pretty quickly but I don't have time to redo my nails so frequently.

Parfait

Un vernis fortifiant élégant qui renforce les ongles tout en offrant une teinte nude douce et naturelle, parfaite pour un look soigné au quotidien.

気に入ってます！ジェルやってたのですが、手湿疹が出るようになってしまってオフしました。その後爪がかなり薄く、缶詰を開けるにもベコッ！シールを剥がすにもベコッ！何をするにも爪がペラペラで本当に嫌な思いをしていました。 それがこの商品を使い初めて1ヶ月くらいで自爪が厚く硬くなってきました。爪がひっくり返らないのでハイポニキウムも伸びてきてピンクの部分が長くなって嬉しいです！正しい使用方法通りに初日は2度塗り、翌日から1ど塗っていますがたまに忘れます。爪の先剥がれたりしますが、色的にあまりきにならないのと、全体的に爪の色が補正されるし傷がついても目立たないので自爪より綺麗です。

pour les ongles abîmée est je doit dire que au bout deux semaines je vois le résultat je le recommande vivement.

Fortalece muy bien las uñas naturales y ayuda a que se rompan y se descamen mucho menos tras unas semanas de uso constante. Este tratamiento fortalecedor crea una especie de escudo sobre la uña que la hace más resistente frente a roturas, descamación y grietas, algo que se nota especialmente si tienes las uñas finas o dañadas. La fórmula lleva proteína de trigo y calcio, que ayudan a reforzar y nutrir la uña para que crezca con mejor aspecto y con menos tendencia a quebrarse. Usado de forma regular, se aprecia que las uñas se sienten más duras, lisas y con un brillo sano, por lo que funciona muy bien como tratamiento base antes del esmalte de color o incluso solo. Es un producto caro comparado con otros fortalecedores, pero la calidad y los resultados en la resistencia de las uñas hacen que merezca la pena la inversión.
