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

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’ve been using this specific product from OPI for several years. I’m a fingerstyle guitarist that relies on my right hand nails for optimal volume, projection and tone. Nail envy helps strengthen, nails for long-term playing. Two decent coats (drying each coat in between) give me a solid week of practicing and performing, no chipping or peeling. I’m also a swimmer and chlorine is the worst thing for keeping your nails strong. I’m sure that women who are doing their own nails use this product as a base coat for whatever color they want to put on top. Everyone I’ve told about this (both women and men) rave about it. It’s pricey, but one bottle lasts a very long time and the quality of the product is top shelf.

I like the color a lot. If you don't use the free app, Yuka, you will be missing out on knowing what foods and cosmetics contain potentially harmful chemicals. They are rated from zero - 100. The nail polish I'd been using has a Zero (Bad) Rating and this Opi nail polish has an 83 excellent rating. Note that brands may have Bad, Poor, Good, and Excellent ratings for different products. So don't assume that one excellent product from a brand means that all are rated excellent.

Works best if you keep up with it every day. My nails are recovering from several months of extensions and builder gel at a chop shop. They are very bendy. The strengthener wears away through daily activities on the nail sidewalls, so they are uncovered and vulnerable to breakage. I try to use it each day for maximum effect and coverage. Helps my nails look better than if they were bare in this state.

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.

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.

Love this strengthener. Can watch my nails grow so fast. The only one that irks for me. Coverage is smooth and drys fast. Stays on till I remove my polish.

I was working with Gemini to find a way to speed up the healing of my thin nails after 11 straight years of gel manicures with virtually no breaks. I got into a brief period of Dips, Press-ons, and a recent run of semi-solid-gel strips, and realized my nails were a complete wreck. Peeling, splitting, thin, mushy. I thought they were forever ruined. But Gemini recommended Repair Mode + Nail Envy. I completed my cycle with Repair Mode, and feel it did help a lot and I didn't have any negative side effects. But my experience with Nail Envy was a complete disaster. It could be because I am not used to painting my nails with anything other than self-leveling gels, or it could be because this is just a terrible user experience. The Good: nails do seem a bit stronger to the touch after 4 days. It dries in a reasonable timeframe when your nails are properly bare. It slides around like a summer water park if you have any oils or serums on your nails. Also, the attention I'm giving my nails every day is helping me focus on the skin and cuticle health. The Bad: Who has time to paint their nails every day? This polish is very clumpy, streaky, and miserable to apply without just putting a whole glob on there and praying it levels out. You get one shot, and more touches with the brush and it looks terrible. It chips easily. By day 4 with 5 layers, it dents with the most simple of tasks. Need to reach into your purse? Dent or chip. Need to wash your hair? Chip! I can't even make it to day 5 or 6, I have to take this off because I look like a 3 year old who got into Mommy's nail polish and had a go at it. I'm a professional businesswoman, I can't go into public looking like this! The Double Nude-y color is kind of gross, like wet ceramic clay. Maybe this alone is why I don't like the polish. The ugly: My nails. My nails are the ugly, just look at my photos. OPI needs to update their user instructions to stop recommending daily application. 3 coats were ok, 4 and beyond a disaster. Some advice: if you are going to go through with this, make sure you swipe your nails first with acetone first. It won't bond to your nail if there is any hint of anything on it, including Repair Mode. I also swiped with alcohol daily before the next layer, and that helped some with adhesion. I'm going to try the pink clear version and see if I can tolerate the nonsense better. For a polish that is so well recommended, I am just not sure about it. It does appear to help nails get stronger, so for that function it deserves 2 stars, but don't expect to win any hand-modeling contracts with this one.

Parfait

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

Llevo años buscando un tratamiento que realmente fortalezca mis uñas y este OPI Nail Envy ha sido un descubrimiento maravilloso. Tengo uñas naturalmente débiles que se rompen con facilidad, pero desde que uso este producto he notado una mejora increíble en apenas tres semanas. El color es precioso - me encanta este tono rosado tan favorecedor que aporta un aspecto natural y cuidado. Se puede usar solo como esmalte o como base antes del color, y en ambos casos funciona de maravilla. La fórmula con proteína de trigo y calcio realmente se nota, no es un producto más. Mis uñas ahora son mucho más resistentes, crecen mejor y ya no se descaman ni se parten como antes. La aplicación es fácil, el pincel es de buena calidad y se seca rápido. Una botella dura bastante tiempo porque con una capa fina es suficiente. Lo uso como base antes de aplicar otros esmaltes y he notado que el color dura mucho más sin descascarillarse. También lo he usado solo durante semanas y mis uñas se ven sanas, con brillo natural y ese color tan bonito que me encanta. Es un producto profesional que realmente cumple lo que promete. Si tienes uñas débiles, quebradizas o simplemente quieres mejorar su salud y apariencia, este tratamiento es una inversión que vale muchísimo la pena. OPI es una marca en la que confío plenamente y este Nail Envy es uno de mis productos favoritos de belleza.

Très bien
