This product produces results at first. It goes on smoothly and it's indeed very effective. However, after three to four weeks of happily continued use as a base under nail polish, I am stunned at the poor health of my nails. I have _never_ had nails split so much on me before. My nails went from decently long to thin barely longer than the quick nails. And to think I only wanted my nails a little stronger. I'm not talking about splitting at the ends of my nails: I mean lifting layers down an eight of an inch or more. Neither nail glue nor down to the quick clipping will stop the lifting. ARGH!!! After some web searching, I found that the alcohols in nail hardeners are actually drying the nail so much, that the nail layers do lift after the initial nail hardening. This is apparently true in most if not all nail hardeners even those without formaldehyde or toluene. The alcohol content in nail polish is not comparatively significant (phew!). In the future, I'll stick to a strong top coat (like the Sally Hansen Mega Shine top coat best product on the market hands down) and make sure my nail ends are smooth to prevent any possible splitting and continue moisturizing.
