This product strengthens my nails and helps them grow. I love the natural glossy look, my nails look great, and my manicure lasts for a whole week.{{userCount} users found this review helpful.Originally posted on essie.com- Yes, I recommendJudy1117Reviewed 3 months ago
What to use to remove
I just applied this yesterday, and so far it's holding up good through hand washes and regular wear and tear. The instructions say to leave it on 3 days, but after the 3 days what is the best thing to remove it with? Will it be okay to use regular nail polish remover?{{userCount} users found this review helpful.Originally posted on essie.com - Yes, I recommendMapleReviewed 4 months ago
Amazing results if you're a chronic nail biter
I normally don't leave reviews, but I had to write one for this nail strengthener. For context, I have been a chronic nail biter my entire life, and this year I finally decided to change that. I bought this product a few months ago, but was not constant in using it. However, I decided to try it again and this time made sure to follow a consistent pattern: two coats every three days (+ cuticle butter every night). And after almost two weeks, I was shocked to see that it did make my nails look healthier. The first picture was taken April 2nd and the second was April 14th, same camera in the same lighting (although idk if the camera readjusts to your surroundings, I do think my fingers look a little pinker) but still, I could notice how much smoother my nails looked. I only painted my nails once in between this time which lasted 5 days, but every other day was just my bare nails + the strengthener. So I would say that if your nails are in rough shape, this definitely helps in restoring them! (also the slight stain on my nails was from nail polish, not the strengthener){{userCount} users found this review helpful.Originally posted on essie.com 
MoiraReviewed 4 months agoGreat at first, then makes your actual nails peel
I was in love with this the first time I tried it a few weeks ago. It felt like it really hardened and protected my nails and I managed to get them to a longer length than u usually do without any breaks or tears. It would only last a few days, but I'd clean my nails and reapply. But now, my nails are peeling! I have never had this issue in my life before, and nothing else in my routine has changed. I'm going polish free and taking extra care of them for the next wee while. So disappointing for a product that showed such promise but clearly has something wrong with its formula.Reply from Essie4 months agoHi there Moira, we’re so glad you initially saw such great length and strength, but we are truly concerned to hear about the peeling you’re experiencing now. Healthy nails are our top priority, and it’s disappointing when a product doesn't go the distance.

Overall fine, turned orange
Overall a fine product, my nails were pretty damaged so I wasn't expecting this to magically fix them, but it did help cover my peeling nail tips. Nothing to write home about. The only unfortunate thing was that after maybe a year it turned orange, hence turning my nails orange when I used it. Don't know if it was just too old or what, but it's just something to note. Wouldn't buy it again but wouldn't advise people against it.Reply from Essie4 months agoHi brendaob27. We would be disappointed too if our nail treatment changed from its pretty pink to orange. We want to understand what happened just as much as you do. Stored at normal room temps and away from heat, your bottle should keep its color for about 2 years.

Not good!
One star because the pink color is nice, but the product itself is not good. It’s extremely brittle so even with more than the two coats they recommend it chips off in a day. I tried doing a coat a day for 7 days, it still flakes off within a day, and also hasn’t made my nails any stronger. Won’t be finishing the bottle!Reply from Essie4 months agoHi there, thank you for sharing your experience with the Hard To Resist Glow & Shine Nail Strengthener. We’re so glad you liked the pink shade, but we’re truly sorry to hear the formula didn’t live up to expectations regarding durability. This isn't the experience we want for you! This strengthener is worn or bare nails for up to 3 days before removing. It certainly should stand up to those 3 days of wear and after 3 days, the nails should be healthier, and less brittle.

SNEAKY ON DESCRIPTION, JUST A REGULAR NAILPOLISH
THIS I THOUGHT WAS GOING TO NOURISH AND MOISTURIZE NAILS, BUT ALL IT IS, IS A TRANSLUCENT ROSE PINK CLEAR NAIL POLISH , LOOKS GOOD AT FIRST, BUT PEELS OFF WITH IN 1 WEEK, LOOKS AWFUL, SO TO REMOVE FROM NAIL YOU HAVE TO USE NAIL POLISH REMOVER. SO WHAT'S THE TREATMENT HERE ? THEY NEED TO SAY THAT IN THE DIRECTIONS, BECAUSE THEN I WOULD HAVE NEVER BOUGHT THIS AT ALL.I'M RETURNING THIS ITEM.Reply from Essie1 year agoHi YOLY. there YOLY customer !
