Are your Nails in Need of A Bit of Care?

27 July, 2023 - 10:30pm by - First Lady | 184 Comments

Poll posted by BR Amelia

Ah nails. They really do finish off your look - whether it's a down to business manicure, or a fun mani for a night out, your nails say a lot about you. And yet they're an area that's easy to overlook. I know many of you out there will have just a couple of nail polishes, and that'll be that for your nail care collection. How do I know this? Because I'm one of you!

So if you're guilty of neglecting your nails, or running with the bare minimum in nail care products, then these Trial Teams are for you!

We have two products looking for reviewers from one of the best nail brands in the world - essie. The Beauty Crew doesn't usually share their opinions about products, but I'm gonna say it. I love essie.

essie hard to resist advanced nail strengthener is a strengthening treatment to care for and protect weak, damaged nails. This clear tint formula strengthens soft, damaged nails while making nails visibly healthier after just three days.

essie stay longer top coat is a premium longwear top coat that keeps your essie color mani smooth, bright, and shiny while protecting against chips for up to 7 days. This top coat is salon quality, meaning your home manicure has just stepped up its game!

So, tough call ahead. Which one of these Trial Teams would you most like a spot on? Comment below and tell us if you'd like to review the essie hard to resist advanced nail strengthener or the essie stay longer top coat - and why.

Get chatting below - you might just find yourself invited to this Trial Team!

I would love to try the essie hard to resist advanced nail strengthener. After extended use of gel polish, my nails are in some desperate need of attention and strengthening.

I desperately need help with my perpetually damaged nails. I have tried everything but they peel and bend and chip. If I find a product that makes 'nails visibly healthier after just three days', I will sing joy to the world and the praises of Essie!!!

I've been a nail biter for years. I go through periods of growing them but something triggers my habit and I get stuck in again. What I've noticed is that when I paint them and give some love to my nails, I'm less likely to bite. I'm currently at a nice length where I'm considering going for a manicure. Would love to trial these products and do my own at home

My nails are in desperate need of some loving! With this cold winter my nails have become rather damaged and weak.

I would love to try this!! My nails especially the ones I use at work frequently on my thumb and index fingers are aways chipping! And I have tried a few strengthening nail polishes that have made no difference. Would love to see if this combo works!

I'm just starting out with attempting to do my own acrylic nails so would love to trial any nail products whether on my own nails or acrylics if I succeed

I do my own nails regularly at home so these both sound amazing to be able to trail, the nail strengthner sounds right up my alley for when my nails need a rest to help them in between, but also the top coat would be amazing to try out when i do my nails, either way I'd be happy to trail any as i do my nails all the time thanks

I am a busy mum, hands in and out of water & chemicals all day. Would love to try as my nails are thin & weak!

My nails have always been incredibly weak. They break easily and are very thin. I’d love to try Essie to see if I can get those long nails I’ve always wanted!

My nails are in a stage of horror. I was working full time in a very hands on job. My nails kept flaking. Peeling. Breaking. I can't seem to get any length on them now without them still doing this! Essie may be my answer!!

My nails are in a shocking state and need some tlc desperately. Please help me out with getting the chance to review these Essie products. I have been using an at home gel kit which has caused my nails to be brittle and sad
