Default OPI "Nail Envy" --- has anyone tried it?

Hi everyone,
I am new here and I would like some feedback on a new product I started trying a few days ago, "Nail Envy" by OPI.

I have always had very weak, thin nails and my options have always been to spend a bunch of money and time getting acrylics, or just throw up my hands (no pun intended) and give up and live with my stubs.

About a week ago my sister told me about Nail Envy and she swears by it, so I got some and started using it. So far so good. I am happy with it -- but then it has only been a few days.

I would just be curious to know if anyone else has had success with this product. Even though my nails are still short for now, I went ahead and painted them Kennebunkport red (another OPI color that I love) and I'm feeling hopeful that my stubs will soon turn into respectable length nails -- even if I never have the really long nails I would love to have been born with.

My mom tried it a few years back.
She has short brittle nails, and she saw some good results with it.
It's like anything else, of course, in that you have to coninue using it to continue seeing results.

Wink follow up

Hi everyone,
I haven't been here in a while. I just wanted to get back with you and let you know -- I have been using Nail Envy every day for the past few weeks, and the results have been great!!!!

Even now as I type this, I am having to be careful not to break one of my long, new, **natural** nails.

I never thought it would be possible for me to have long, natural nails. All my entire life, I have had weak, flimsy, flaking/peeling nails that usually were stubs -- unless I went to the nail salon and got a professional job. That was expensive and time consuming for me on my budget.

I am thrilled with Nail Envy.

I didn't even have to pay a lot for it. Other people have posted that they spent $15 or so per bottle, but I went to my neighborhood Vietnamese beauty supply outlet and got it for $5.

I highly recommend this product! I am loving my new nails!!!!

The only down side is that my nails are still chipping a great deal and I am constantly having to do touch ups with the nail envy and the colored polish. I have been using the "soft and thin" formula of Nail Envy, so I am going to get their anti-chip formula next time and see how that works. But hey, I would rather have long nails that chip than to constantly have to look at my old stubby nails!

Thankyou Nail Envy!!!
