5 out of 5 stars got nails? no? : )   August 17, 2010

Before I would either paint my nails or just leave them be, depending on the occasion. Now that I use this product, I can see why such methodology left me with horrible nails compared to what I have now from using this product. My nails now become shorter when I want them to, by trimming, rather than from having to peel a cracked edge before it catches on and damages my clothes. Since using this product I haven't had a single split nail on my hands or feet.

It goes on just like regular polish, only a bit thicker, drying completely in about a minute. I love the matte finish, which allows me a natural-looking style when I feel like it. I use matte finish nail color (also Opi)when I do color, and recommend this nail strengthener when using matte finish colors to prevent chipping.

Personally, I only apply this product every couple of days and it works just fine for me. I was concerned such product would make my nails hard, but they are just as soft and flexible as before it seems to me anyway. Its a must-have item, especially during open-toes sandals season.

My nails are plain ugly - ridged and yellow. But the matte polish hides that very well.

I purchased this about a month ago. I think I have tried every type of nail strengthener that is available all to no avail. This product not only has kept my nails from cracking and breaking but also helps me keep my nail polish from chipping for almost a week!! I have tried nail bases and overcoats when I polished my nails but none of them were very effective (no what I paid for them or their claims). I put on a couple of coats of this product, polish my nails (2-3 coats) and then put on a coat of nail envy. I may have to repolish a bit on the tips (depending on how roughly I am treating my nails - but this keeps a manicure for a good week! I will never use another product except this.

This product was recommended by a friend, because I am not allowed to wear nail polish to work & need nail protection from the job. I am still expirmenting with it. I applied the 2 coats and found it isn't as matted as I expected. It leaves a shine to my nails & looks like I'm wearing nail polish. I can't wear this to work. My nails are somewhat long so I've applied 1 coat so far to just a few tips that were cracked & peeling and a double coat to the underside of all of them. So far they are holding up and I don't see the shine this way it's not noticable & I can wear it to work. I will keep expirmenting & with any luck my nails will be stronger & protected form the job.

For some strange reason, the only time I care about my nails looking EXTRA good is for my trip to Las Vegas each year. I mean - I care the rest of the year how they appear - I certainly don't want everyone to see straggly-looking nails, but as long as they look reasonably good, I'm happy with just using clear nail polish applied once a week and that's it.

I had tried other nail strengtheners in the past -- cheap products such as Sally Hansen -- and pricier products such as TIPS and ProStrong. None of these worked as well as the OPI Nail Envy.

Nail Envy comes in a matte finish or natural finish (clear and shiny). I like the matte as it looks more natural. The natural finish is glossy and looks like a layer of glass on your nails.

Even though it is fairly thick when applied, it dries quickly. Nail Envy can be used as a base, a top coat or as a nail strengthener. However, if used as a nail strengthener, which I might say is the best product I've used, the results are not cumulative. Once you quit using it, your nails go back to the original brittle condition.

When used for strengthening, you must of course start out with clean dry nails. Two coats are required to start, and then every other day another coat is applied. At the end of the week you remove the Nail Envy and start over with the same routine. OPI "recommends" a non-acetone based polish remover, but I didn't have that type on hand so I used my regular acetone remover and it worked just as well. It doesn't require a lot of effort to obtain good results with this product.
