LA Colors Nail Hardener-Strengthener

I have weak nails. No matter how much calcium I put into my body, they bend and snag and break all over the place. Thus, it is really hard to grow them out. But I found a secret weapon: and it's not what you think! It's wearing glue on nails. Over two weeks (and two sets of nails) I grew my nails almost as long as the fake nails! I haven't had nails this long in years. I love it. And I want to keep them this way. So I remembered they sold the hardner/strengthener at The Dollar Tree. I have been skeptical of these products in the past- I think I tried a colored Sally Hansen "Hard as Nails" polish once and was very disappointed. But so far this is working great! I've only snagged two nails in four days of using my hands extensively and had minimal breakage associated with those snags. If I do the "bend test" (gently bending my nail tip down to see if it will break easily) I notice definite toughness where the hardener has not chipped off. The only drawback is that after about 7 coats my nails are acquiring a weird looking transparent, light blue sheen. But that is easily fixed by putting a colored polish over it.
