The Guru Index verdict
Approved
✓Approved · 75%What the gurus are saying
The experts who tested it found that Nail Envy genuinely strengthens nails and helps them grow longer without breaking or snagging at the edges, plus it works well as a base coat that keeps polish from chipping for a week or more. However, some people's nails become drier and more brittle with it, and those with sensitivities to nail hardener ingredients may want to patch-test first or skip it altogether. Those who see results tend to use it consistently, though reapplying weekly with remover can feel like upkeep.
