Hey girls,

I've finally taken my acrylic nails off in prep for baby. My nails have always been very curly and weak.

although my nails are now short they are a nice shape, but my nail varnish (which was a french polish) has already started to chip 3 days after applied.

So whats the best nail hardener I can buy (in shops or online) that will not let my nails break so easily and will make my nail varnish last for a good few weeks (if thats poss? - am so used to having my acrylics and the paint job lasting for about a month).

Thanks loves!

Urm I actually have no nails at all! Nasty I know, but my mum used to be the same, she now has beautiful long really strong ones. She used O.P.I. you can pick it up from boots! It isnt too cheap but works really well!

Good luck hun! x

I used to use Sally Hansen and it wasn't too bad and quite affordable.

Not sure if you have that brand where you are located.

my mother in laws a nail tech and she says almond oil is the best thing you can do for soft nails, it 'feeds' them, the polish will just suck all the goodness out of them.

its all i put on mine and they are really long :-)

good luck

I've only used Sally hansen.

Maybe a bit silly but i was thinking of getting Acrilic nails on as atm i have no nails!! Even though i cant do anything with them on!!

My own nails are so soft i've had to file them right down to nothing!! Think i'll be giving the almond oil and OPI a try.
Sally Hanson has never worked for me!!!x

I was told by a my old nail technician to use Nailtiques, I bought a set which was specifically for when you've had your nails removed.

Yes its a little expensive but works amazing, I would also invest in some almond oil. If you've have a 'Sally's' near where you live you'd probably get a big bottle for about £3ish where as in the salons you'll get a teeny bottle for the same price.

I have a product called miracle nails. It worked magnificently for me, as I work around oil and it helped alot. Not sure which country your in and if they have it where you are but worth a try. I found mine from a place that did nails.
