Applies easily and tho it's only been on my nail for less than one day it appears to hold the crack. I did two coats because of a Reoccurring crack in the middle of the end of my thumbnail. Trying to
Take a break from dip polish at the nail salon

Sooooo easy to use. Saved the tip of my pinkie nail. The buffer does nothing - I use nanoglass buffers because I like that liquid shine, so I ended up having to put most of the structure on the underside because I kept buffing the material off the top 😅 and I still needed several coats of clear base to smooth it out. But with only one coat of a translucent polish over it I couldn't see the repair (if my photo shows up, see how they compare!). I was really glad to have this around when I needed it.

I have used this product four times now and the pinky finger nail that was split down about 3/4 of an inch on my nail that was otherwise continuing to grow in a split is gradually improving. It just split again and was painful but rather than tearing it off I put more of the product on it. The spit now is only to just below the rim of the nail. I trust that as I continue to use this product the split is gradually repairing...though it has taken 7 months to get to this point. I have used this on other split nails as well. I also now use a biotin for nails, hair and skin supplement because rather than just manually trying to repair the nails it is best to strengthen nails through nutritional measures simultaneously.
I put several layers on the nail because 2 applications weren't enough to repair the split. It doesn't look that great on my nail even when I file it but I am focused on the longterm repair of my nail and don't normally wear nail polish. My dermatologist didn't know how to fix the problem so I found the solution myself through going on Amazon and seeing what customers bought. This product DOES work...very quickly for minor tips of the fingernail right away, and for splits that are into the nail it takes months so be patient!

I had nail break where the nail was holding on by maybe a centimeter. It worked after the first application but I did three since due to the severity of the break. This nail is now indestructible.

After reading the reviews I thought I can't afford not to try this product. I have one nail that split right up the center. It catches on everything, then painfully tears more. For about 15+ years I have gone to a salon to have this one nail reapplied, repaired, etc. at a local nail salon. I really like my nicely buffed, clean, natural nails and want to keep them that way. When COVID shut us down and I could no longer go to the salon, I had to do something. I bought this product and it is equal to what I have done in the salon. But, I am saving $55 per month. Since I could not justify paying the salon only $10 (as a business owner I understand the cost of labor/service) every time I had to get the nail redone, I had an entire mani or mani/pedi each time. This product is a great find!!! I have redone my own nail about four time since I bought this repair. LOVE IT!
