I had weak, peeling and dry nails and was desperate for something to strengthen them. I bought and used the OPI Nail Envy but unfortunately I didn't find it helped at all and just made my nails dryer and they looked slightly yellow when I removed it.

I brought this when my nails were at their worst, they were breaking and peeling, they weren't pretty! I tried this and it did absolutely nothing for them. I still have half the bottle sitting in with my polishes. In the end I think what did work was evening primrose oil tablets and coconut oil every night.
I love OPI but Nail Envy didn't quite work for me. It was no different to putting on a base coat of something and eventually I gave up and started to use every other day, so waste of time really.
Tips: Use as directed :-)
I was hoping to have natural nails for my wedding as I had already ruined my nails with fake ones before. OPI Nail Envy seemed to have the best rep, so I went for that, and followed the directions, however it didn't seem to do anything for me. They may have gotten a little stronger but they still broke and split & flaked. Not worth the price to persist with this on the chance of better results
I didn't see much difference in the strength or condition of my nails. I have issues with my weak nails peeling and splitting and this didn't make any noticeable improvement to the condition of my nails. For the price you pay for Opi polish and treatments I wouldn't waste your money. The only thing I have found that helps is collagen tablets or hair skin and nail tablets available from many brands. They cost around the same and really help!
Tips: Take vitamin and mineral capsules for hair, skin and nails to improve condition of nails.
i bought this as my nails split due to the cold weather during winter and i had followed the instructions for a solid month but found that it doesn't do what it says. Instead i found that because there were so many layers, i would rip the tips of my nails as they snagged on things. However i use this as a base coat and found it helped my polish stick on longer. Not a complete waste of money there. I also have the matte version and i can safely say that the matte version is so much better. I will not be repurchasing this
After all the hype this product had I was really let down. I'm glad I didn't pay the full price! It didn't make a visible difference to my nails at all. I just use it as a basic base coat now so it's not a complete waste.
I didn't like this personally. I found it didn't work very well. My nails were still long and flaky. I wouldn't spend $25 on it. For nothing
As far as treatments go, this did very little for my damaged nails. I have nails that peel very easily, so I was hoping this would strengthen them so I could grow them out a bit. On recommendation from a staff member at the pharmacy, I bought a mini bottle to try out. I followed all instructions perfectly and there was no noticeable difference. OPI's mini bottles are so small it only lasted two full two-week applications so there is a possibility a more extended treatment would have worked better. It was good to use as a basecoat though, smoothed my nails out and held up well.
Tips: Don't waste money on the mini bottle!
I tried this about a year back on my nails that split and peel very easily. They are also really weak and they bend lots. I had heard really good things about this and I love the OPI polishes so thought it would be a winner. However, unfortunatley it did not work. I followed the instructions to a T and perservered. After a couple of months I hadnt noticed much of a difference at all so gave up.
Tips: I have since found that the Dr Lewins nail hardener has worked! Recommend this rather than the OPI nail envy.
