I bought this from Suzykirei shopping! My nails are weak and often crack or chip, so I had been interested in this product after reading reviews. I tried it out and loved it. When I applied it, it coated my nails and I feel like they're stronger than if I didn't use anything. I'd be happy if I continued to apply it frequently and my nails wouldn't crack.
I prefer polish because my nails are naturally thin. I bought this because it said it could also be used as a base coat. It doesn't dry particularly quickly, but the texture was stickier than I expected, so it felt like it dried quickly. It looks great with just two coats. Even with two coats, the way your nails bend when you press them changes significantly, so I expect it will be stronger. I'm still on hold about how long the color will last until I've used it for a while, but I'm considering repurchasing.
I will buy it again as it strengthens my nails.
I bought this product because I was worried about leaving my nails bare after removing the gel nail polish I'd been wearing for over three years. I applied one coat to my bare nails, left it for about three minutes, and then applied another coat. I don't really like the shiny look of top coats, so I apply Nail Holic's Matte Top Coat on top. The hyponychium that had grown so well during my gel nails disappeared the moment my nails returned to their natural state, but it has returned since I started using this product. I removed it once in the morning, intending to apply it when I got home that night, but when I put my hand in my pocket and went out, my nails went soft just by touching them with my fingertips, so I really did feel that applying this product strengthens my nails quite a bit.
It was easy to apply with a large brush. I'll test it a bit more to see how long it lasts.
