EXCUSE ME Professional Nail Repair Kit for Broken Split and Weak Nails

It’s fine but not wow

I am so impressed by this kit! I had a tear in my nail very close to the flesh and about 1/3 the way across the nail - you can see the discolored edge in the first repair photo. I was devastated because I've been trying to grow out my nails and I want them to be even! I have done my own gel nails for over 10 years but never tried dips - this was so easy to use! Apply alcohol, dry, apply glue, dip in powder, dry, dust off excess, file away bumps and you're good! Since this was my index finger, I repeated the process 3 times total, applied to the whole nail, and the repair seems very solid. I think dusting away the excess powder and smoothing in-between layers will help keep bumps away. I applied my gel polish on top and it looks completely natural and smooth! I'm not sure how long it will last yet, or if the gel will have trouble staying bonded, but I'm optimistic so far. I highly recommend this kit if you repair your nails at home. It is way better than bandaids, and if it works while the nail grows out it's much better than cutting it all off!

I wanted to grow out my nails as I had a lot of functions in May. But I have a thumbnail that breaks halfway up the nail, due to a previous injury. So I bought this kit, knowing I would need it. I had never fixed any of my nails in the past, so was a novice when I needed to use it, a couple weeks after it arrived. I found it super easy to use! It came with step by step instructions, as well as a link to a video tutorial. Only issue I had was that one item in the kit was damaged, but not bad enough to make it unusable. So after fixing my thumbnail, I wrote them an email. They responded same day and replaced the damaged piece immediately. It was in my possession within three days of my email! So for the kit: A+. Very easy to use and blends well with my natural nails. I’ve used this kit now, 4 times. The photo above of my hand has two other nails that have been fixed aside from my thumb (so three total). So, as you can see, it works REALLY well and hide your nail breaks to blend in with your other nails (even for a novice). Customer service: A++! You can tell they take pride in their product and want to make sure your kit is perfect! I will definitely be buying again!

Unusual medical problem/medication caused terrible finger nail cracking made resorting to this necessary. Stuff works but it probably takes 2 or so applications to work completely -And with that lots of nail fillings.

This is all you need for any broken natural nail. I tore my nail halfway across and boy it held!! It is like an overlay when it is finished. Greatest idea since sliced bread. Easy to use, just follow the directions. I am a manicurist from back in the day: 1980's. This is a quality product. It buffed out so clear you couldn't tell it from the others, and when it is polished...

This is an addendum to my earlier review entitled "This Works." I had indicated that the edges of the affixed material were starting to loosen. Within a few days, the material was beginning to break off. It came off in chunks, leaving just a small patch at the end of my nail, which unfortunately does not cover the break in the nail. So now I am again applying tape at the end of my finger to try to hold the nail together as it finishes growing out. I am hopeful that I will be able to grow the nail out far enough to get rid of the break entirely by taping and keeping the nail trimmed short. I have mixed feelings about this product, though it was helpful while it lasted. I suspect that, just as we have different skin types, ranging from dry to oily, we have somewhat different surfaces to our nails as well, and that for some people this product might adhere better and be longer lasting. Although, if it had been longer-lasting for me, then I would have a very long process of growing out the nail far enough to get rid of the product, because that is what I will need to do with the remaining chunk of it that is still adhered at the end of my nail.
