Hard Rock Hydrating Nail Hardener

This is the best nail hardener ever.... my nails are very thin and fragile.... I have been using this product for almost 6 months and my nails are real hard now... they dont break neither bend.. I highly recommend

This product works. I've struggled with cracking and peeling nails my entire life, and my problem has improved SO MUCH after using this as a base coat 2x a week. If you use this regularly and keep your nails a reasonable length (not grossly long) you'll avoid breakage and most of all peeling. Use in conjunction with jojoba oil and ur GOOD

I was intent on trying this product and making my own conclusion. It truly is just average. I like Original Nail Envy MUCH better...much harder nails & nail coverage (even after just one time use) than Hard Rock which is greatly over priced. Please don't waste your money like I did. The comments about nail chipping etc are well founded and the product disappoints hugely on just that subject alone. I gave three stars because I don't want to completely admit being disappointed and over charged.

Amazing! I get regular manicures and don’t really have time or patience to wait for them to dry at nail salon. I’ve used the Hydrating Nail Hardener as a base and top coat. My nails are actually stronger (previous issues with splitting/breaking). I did my nails seven days ago. No chips and polish is still shiny and looks like I went to Salon. I highly recommend it!

I love this. I’ve been searching high and low for a solid top and base coat for my thin nails that were ruined by that stupid dip stuff. I’ve used Esse which is “eh” - not the best. This blew me away! Dries fast to the touch (5 min) but if you want it to be truly dry, I’d honestly give it an hour until you start doing anything that could pressure on the nail. I am TERRIBLE at painting my nails and this is a few steps down from a professional gel manicure. Love love. Five stars for sure!

Sometimes, you just have to not use polish or gel for 6 months to let your nails recover. This didn't work, and added to peeling breaking nails

Every time I have used this as a basecoat, my nails have chipped within a day. To test this, I've tried other basecoats in between trying this, and have concluded the chipping is def a result of using this. For reference, I use all DL nail products and polishes.

Used to be a great product. I bought one every year for about 7 years and the last time, terrible. My nails are strong but am hard on my hands (wear those gloves for cleaning!) and hit one nail and it would normally break or split, but not so when I used this as the base coat. But no longer.

For some reason, my nails have been splitting and chipping so much the past 3 months. I have tried so so many things to prevent them from chipping and splitting. This product has helped the most. I put two layers on as a base coat, then two layers of my favorite Chanel polish, and then another layer of this as top coat. Then I add another layer of this coat every other day, and this has helped so so much. So happy I found this product.

I love Deborah Lippmann polish, but it chips so fast on me. However, after some trial and error, I can get my polish to last almost a week with tenoverten base coat and DL addicted to speed and hard rock top coat layered on top. I’ve found that if I use hard rock as the first or only top coat, it takes forever to cure. Like 12 hours later my polish is still denting. Addicted to speed hardens quickly but loses its shine and starts chipping in 1-2 days. But if I layer hard rock over addicted to speed (I usually apply hard rock a day later), my mani lasts a long time without chips!

This gave a lovely shine to my unpolished nails, but the formula was grainy. Perhaps an older bottle? I found that this began to peel and flake almost immediately, and by the end of the day I had bare patches on several nails. An unexpected occurance for light duty, shorter nails. Did not notice any hydrating properties, since the peeling process dried out my nails. :(

I gave up salon manicures since my nails are so fragile. I have tried so many products but have found that this one is really helping. If you have nails in need of a growth treatment, definitely try this hardener.
