Doesn't Strengthen Nails [SEP] This is just an expensive bottle of clear polish. It does not strengthen my nails. They still bend. A better choice for me is the Dollar Store  polish. It cost less and does the same thing.<br /><br />Nail Envy is a product that will strengthen the nails. It strengthens the actual nails.  It's not a quick fix.  It is applied in polish form. After a few weeks, the nails get stronger, harder, and the damaged is repaired The nails will grow long and strong, if used as directed. .  Nail Envy Strengthener is specifically for weak, red, peeling nails that have been damaged by wearing acrylic nails, gel polish, wear and tear,  etc....It is their Original Formula and it's about 20 bucks. They have 2 colors....clear and blush. I recommend the clear only. The blush will streak when applied.<br /><br />I was going cheap....hoping this would work as well.  Nail Envy is more expensive, but that is what I'm going to buy.  I know it works.
