Has anyone used OPI Nail Envy to help nails that have been damaged by a dip/acrylic manicure? Do you think there is any difference between the clear and the coloured versions?
I had a really bad dip powder manicure done while I was on vacation and when it was taken off my nails were so thin and weak. I trimmed them down as low as I could and (after doing some research) ended up ordering some jojoba nail and cuticle oil, OPI Repair Mode, and OPI Nail Envy in both the clear and a pinkish colour. For the Nail Envy polish, regardless of colour, you’re supposed to put two coats on the first day, and then one coat on every day for seven days and then remove it. I decided to start with the pink coloured polish, but I’m wondering if I could alternate between the pink and the clear each day. I know it seems like a weird question, but I feel like 9 coats of coloured polish is going to look really weird on my nail 😅. I’m also not sure if the coloured polishes are as effective as the plain clear (admittedly, I don’t really know how the Nail Envy product works, just that I’ve read and heard really great reviews about it both online and from friends and family). Any thoughts? Also any suggestions on how to strengthen my nails and get them to grow faster would also be appreciated.
