Customer Reviews of Nutra Nail Power Gel Nail Hardener System, with Green Tea AntioxidantsCustomer Review: nutra nail hard as wraps Summary: 3 Stars
I have always had pretty weak nails. I used for last few months Nailtiques Formula 2 and it really made my nails stronger and longer and I was pretty happy with it but then my bottle got empty and I (foolishly) decided to try something else. Nutra Nail hard as wraps had (when I placed my order ) single 5 star review so I thought it must be good. I should have done more research. After I already placed my order I did review search on a drugstore webpage and there star numbers were very different. Two and a half stars from 16 people total. So before you buy it do some more research then just what this webpage offers.
Here are my pros and cons.
pros
- it works! It doesn't let your nail break that easy.
But..
cons
- My Nailtiques Formula 2 was in the same price range and had 0.5 fl oz. NutraNail hard as wraps only has 0.17 fl oz. and with just 4 layers 1/3 of the bottle is gone.
- It doesn't really do anything for the nail itself like other strengthers do. You put a layer on your nail, then add activator layer and between the two of them it hardens and becomes like a milder version of artifical nail.
- You cant remove it with regular polish remover. You have to have artificial nail remover. Which I had to buy thank you very much.
- it is very difficult to apply. You have to clean the brush with brush cleanser liquid they give you and that alone is not enough. I kept dipping my brush in it and it didnt cleanse it well enogh, it became very hard and unusable. I had to use another brush and dipped it into cleanser and then rubbed it on the back of my hand to make sure everything comes off. How stupid was that? two minutes later the back of my hand was covered with hard layer I couldnt get off any other way but using metal footscrubber. So you better make sure you have a sheet of paper at hand when you start applying it.
-it smells very much like one of those superglues that can glue your fingers together if you are not careful. In fact I wouldnt be surprised if thats the base of it. This and the fact you have to use fake nail remover to get it off makes me worried what will happen with your nails if you use it long term.
- it doesn't apply on evenly. I feel the bumps and ridges on almost every nail.
-some of my nails dried very fast while others were sticky for hours. Tho I did tried to apply the activator as fast as possible. Go figure.
- it started chipping pretty fast.
All in all I think Im gonna go back to Formula 2. I want my OWN nail to be healthy and long not just to be under protective shell. And when some people say that indeed Hard as wraps can make your nail grow longer with just few weeks then - of course, if you have a glue or fake nails over your own nails, of course they will grow long but what shape are they in? Ive heard enough cases when people who use fake nails end up with their own nails looking yellow and soft as porridge. No thank you.
The bottom line is with other strenghtners (those that work) your nails will be strong even if you remove strengtner for a week or so. But when you remove hard as wraps in the best case scenario, it stays the same as it was before you put it on (meaning-weak) and in worst case scenario it will be worse then it was before (artifical nail effect).
