Post  mrsmoore2b Thu Mar 28, 2013 5:28 am

I got myself a mini bottle off eBay and have been using it for a couple of weeks now. I think iv noticed a difference but not sure if its this, my Vaseline hand cream or the fact I have been more mindful at work lol will keep it up though just incase lol. Any of you ladies tried it or other hardners x

I love it so much, feels really strong on my nails. I don't use it all the time and I certainly never get to build up the layers like the recommendation as I change my manicure very frequently. I think it is a great base, not sure if i would pay RRP for it but you can get very good deals on it.
I also like seche retain.

I use it all time as my base coat,now that my nails are a decent length.I wouldn't be without it Smile The only way I managed to grow my nails in the first place was by using it Smile
I got some Vaseline hand cream a couple of weeks back but I'm not keen,it seems to take ages to soak in!
I did read someone's blog the other day and she had come to the conclusion that if you look after your hands and nails (ie hand cream etc )then you will see the results Smile

The only nail product I have ever repeat purchased. I love it. bounce I have 3 as back ups because I can't be without it.

When I first bought it (about 14 years ago), I used it as directed with a coat every other day but like others, I tend to use it as a bas ecoat now.

I LOVE nail envy! I use it EVERY time I do my nails and in the first few weeks my nails went from being below the tips of my fingers to 1cm ABOVE my tips!!! Amazing product!

Another Nail Envy devotee here!

I used to be a full on Nails Inc girl and used their basecoats but I definitely noticed the difference in my nails when I switched Very Happy

I'm definitely a fan! I've yet to find another product that will work better. For some reason the matte version worked terribly on me, though.

I use it as a base religiously but have only noticed a small improvement in the splitting and flaking area. I tried the Sally Hansen Miracle cure too, that did chuff all so the minor improvement from the nail envy is better than nothing for me!

I have been using the old fashioned nail magic but I might switch to OPI nail envy as basecoat doesnt count as part of my no buy due to the fact I suffer from peeling and ridges thanks to my medication and the Crohns disease

Where do you all get it from please ?

Thank you I ended up getting it from Boots as they they had 3 for 2 and although it was £18 I needed foundation as well at £16 so I got two bottles of Nail Envy and one foundation plus points etc so I think it ended up costing me £12 a bottle which isnt too bad

Nail Envy's the only nail treatment I ever use - I don't use it all the time because I've only got a mini bottle and I can't bring myself to part with the money for a big bottle, but when I think my nails are getting a bit rubbish I use it as a basecoat for a week or two and I definitely think I see an improvement Smile
