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 love Essie. I am never without a good base coat and a longwear topcoat when I do my own mani at home. I'm keen to give these products a go.

The strengthener would be great to try as I’m so clumsy I’m always breaking my nails off on things!

My nails always grow to a nice length then shatter and break. I would love to try the strengthener.

It’s a tough decision.. but I think my nails would love the nail strengthener! Washing hair and my hands all day, I’ve noticed my nails look a bit sad and fragile. I’ve used Essie for so long, excited to see their products in a trial!

I was a nail biter for years, and since finishing up University last year I have managed to stop. I have noticed while the are growing, they are too weak to have length, they end up ripping and just are strong. It would be great to try out a product like this too see if it helps.

My nails need help! They are so soft and brittle from work... Essie sounds like the brand for me!

Since hitting menopause, my nails have become much thinner. They tend to break or split quite easily. I would love to try the strengthening product!

I would love to try the Essie hard to resist advanced nail strengthener. Now that I have finished my study, I finally have time to care for my nails. I feel this product would be a key starting point as nothing will last with weak nails!

I anxiously bite my nails. Maybe this can help me stop? Would love to try

Winter has made my nails dry and brittle, and my cuticles are in just as much of a needed pampering. I'd love to try to strengthen them with the Essie Hard to Resist nail strengthener!

Would love to try the advanced nail strengthener - my nails are terrible for peeling/breaking once they get a tiny bit of length on them!

So glad Essie has come out with something like this and can't wait to try! After being a nail polish wearer for about 15+ years and then constantly getting gel manicures, my nails are in terrible condition - I've gone cold turkey and am trying to do my own but it's hard without a good strengthener, and something to keep regular polish looking great for as long as possible. Hopefully this solves that problem!
