Product Details Great for peeling and splitting of nails Hardens nails and treats chipping

Product Description

Nail strengthener that, besides forming a protective barrier, prevents chipping, peeling and splitting of your nails. Instructions for use: Shake before use. Apply only to clean and dry nails. To start the treatment, apply a thin coat from the center of the nail down to the tip once a week. Let it dry and paint the nail with your favorite nail polish. After three applications, as the nail gets stronger, brush one thin coat covering the whole nail. Use once weekly. Protect the skin around the cuticles with cream. Caution: Can cause some discomfort on first use. If you feel pain, burning or persistent discomfort, remove it immediately from all nails and suspend its use. Avoid contact with cuticles and skin. Warning: Not meant for daily use. Keep out of reach of children. Keep away from heat and flames. Flammable. This product is formulated to be used once a week. Please note that, as is the case with any cosmetic product, excessive use can cause unwanted side effects. And again: if you haven't used this product before, do not cover the whole nail with the strengthener on first use. As your nails get stronger from week to week you can slowly start to cover the whole nail. This is especially important if you have very thin or brittle nails. Note: Retailers in the United States have to sell this product in the original box with correct ENGLISH LABELING AND INSTRUCTIONS printed on the cardboard box. Should you only receive the glass bottle without the box, please return the item to the seller for your own safety!

Fantastic (when used with care)
After a spell with artificial nails (which, naturally, includes an exhausted rejection of their maintainance, sanitation and cost!), my nails were roughed up quite a bit: paper thin, peely and ridged/pocked. This product certainly does what it claims, and in a matter of weeks with one night spent surface buffing and enjoying 'True Confessions of a Shopaholic' (it was *so* a girls' night), my nails have transformed. It's important to understand, however, how the active chemicals in nail hardeners work, and this should affect how you put them to use. Quimica is a Colombian-made formaldehyde or formalin based hardener, while other products are said to have protein or nylon bases. The formaldehyde/formalin tincture means that the active chemicals are very strong and effective and therefore should be used with caution and patience -- the latter of which is hard to have when you've just ripped off a set of acrylics and sworn them off for good! With very thin nails at the...

Amazing product!
I've been using this product for a year now. I absolutely love it!!! For years I've tried every product available to make my brittle, short nails grow with very little results. I too got this from a nail salon for about $17. It was worth it. I use it every 2 days & I can go for 1 1/2 weeks w/o changing the nail polish. My nails grow & don't break now. During the summer they grew so much I actually had to trim them down a few times. I do dishes & all sorts of things that would destroy my nails but they are in great shape. I also can do my nails at home & save a bundle on manicures. Just one thing, if your nails hurt after you put it on, you're using this stuff too much. Lay off for a few days & you'll be fine. Enjoy beautiful nails!!!!

This is the BEST nail hardenner known to human kind........
I bought this one by the recommendation of my nail artist. She sold it to me for $20. I couldn't believe it's price. She said if you don't like it come back I will return your money. Before then I was using the Duri Rejuvacote, I thought that was the thing. However, this one makes the Duri look like crap. I was so glad when I found this online. My nails are hard, also it holds the polish for a long time, also it keeps my nails shiny and moist even after I use a strong polish remover (ladies you know what I'm talking about). It really works. I ordered 3 bottles to save on shipping. When I am done I am going to order again. It was shipped ontime!!!
