COLOR NAIL ENVY
Add a touch of color to your nail strengthener! Available in Bubble Bath (nude-y pink), Samoan Sand (nude), Hawaiian Orchid (Mauve) and Pink to Envy (Ultra-Sheer Pink).
OPI has been revolutionizing the world of nail color and care since 1981 with our superior product quality, fashion-forward colors, iconic bottles and fun shade names! Our vast array of products comes in a range of colors to meet every mood and self-expression.
How to treat my nails using Nail Envy?
When using OPI Nail Envy by itself (without nail color on top) apply two coats. Follow by applying one coat every other day. When using Nail Envy as a base coat, apply the nail strengthener whenever you change your Nail Lacquer color.
How do I properly prep the nail?
Begin by pushing back the cuticles and cleaning the nail plate - removing any hangnails or dead tissue. Cleanse the nails with OPI Expert Touch Nail Wipe saturated with N.A.S 99 Nail Cleansing Solution to get perfectly prepped nails.
Can I use Nail Envy products as a Base Coat?
All Nail Envy strengthener products can be used as a stand-alone nailtreatment or as a base coat alternative underneath your favorite OPI Nail Lacquer.
How do I remove cuticle flooding?
Easily remove Nail Lacquer nail polish from the skin by dipping a brush or Q-tip into Expert Touch Lacquer Remover and cleaning around the cuticle to remove excess nail polish.
Why do I get bubbles in my manicure?
For best nail art results, always allow each coat to dry before applying the next coat of Nail Lacquer. If the previous coats are still wet, they will continue to dry under the new coat of polish, resulting in air bubbles getting trapped in between.

ORIGINAL REVIEW: I have been using the OPI Nail Envy Nail Strengthener (Original) all summer and my nails have been stronger and more beautiful than ever. I work in the medical field where there is lots of hand washing and moving of heavy equipment all day long which is just brutal on my nails. I also do a lot of gardening and landscaping which plays a big role in weakening my nails.
I started using OPI Nail Envy as a base coat before applying my favorite color polish on top and I've notice quite a difference already in just a couple months. My nails are no longer splitting, peeling, cracking, or bending. This product dries super fast and holds on great to any polish I put on top of it. My color nail polish no longer lifts/separates from the nail, peels, or chips. It stays right in place and just wears evenly along the exposed edges of my nails.
I was so impressed with this product that I had my Mom try it when she was staying with me. I forgot to ask her how she liked it before she left. I ended up buying her a bottle here on Amazon and having it shipped to her house. I got a phone call right away after it arrived and she was so thrilled to receive it because in the two weeks that she was using it while staying with me, she had noticed a real difference in her nail growth. She actually asked me where she could repurchase it when she runs out. My Mom follows the directions to a T and only applies the OPI Nail Envy on its own. She applies a coat of it every couple of days and then on day 7 takes all of the polish off and starts over.
She loves it, I love it, how could you not love?! My Mom and I have different nail issues, however, this product worked great for both of us. I will definitely be repurchasing this nail strengthener when the time comes. This product is making me love polishing my nails and it's helping me get my money's worth out of the color polishes that I had stopped using because of all of my nail problems. So very happy with this product!

Small background: I'm an artist, but I also work as a security dispatcher. I use my hands a lot, whether it would be computer, phone, pushing, pulling, lifting, painting, whichever, so I am rough with my hands. This also means I'm constantly washing and sanitizing them due to cleaning work spaces very often, several times a day actually. I did not move/treat my hands any different when comparing the other products to this one.
First, this one dries much quicker than the average ones: about 5-7 minutes.Personally, I still wait about 10-15 minutes before being normally rough with my hands and using them regularly.
I've been fighting brittle nails for months. My nails would break even when they were only a 1mm long and would break at the pink parts of my nails (ouch..) very often. They would bend very easily as well. Nothing worked until I got my hands on this one. Usually with other nail strengtheners, there's always some sort of thick coating that you can 100% tell you have nail polish on of some sort; and they never last that long or actually help with brittle nails: they still break very easily. Other nail strengtheners work like a bandaid. When I would bend my nails, the polish strengtheners would crack like normal ones and deteriorate at a faster rate [~3days] (without bending purposely). With this one, from my experience, it goes to the root of the problem. The polish has a natural shineness and does not act as quick fix compared to others. Even when purposely bending your nails (for testing purposes), it doesn't crack and doesn't even look like anything was applied on top.
Yes, orignially getting them done, will look similarly to a regular top-coat nail polish, but once it dries, it looks extremely natural. Even after a couple days, my nails look healthy and the shine on it looks like they have been buffed. It says to reapply every other day, but sometimes I go a week, and they still look good. I have pictures provided of when first applied (after cleaning up nails) and then the pic and video after is after 5 days.
Also disclaimer: I started taking biotin & collagen supplements, but I've been using this nail strengthener way before i started them, so what I say still holds up. The supplements just give me extra support and make my nails and skin look a little more healthier.

When I pulled off the Acrylics it left my nail beds soft, peeling and very sore. My thumb nails were splitting down the middle from both the cuticle and the tip. This not only looked awful but was extremely sore; especially during our cold, damp Southern Ontario winters. I tried various other nail strengtheners but my nails just were not improving - the split in my thumb nails were not healing.
So I did some research and found that pure Vitamin E oil is helpful for healing dry cuticles and nail beds. I researched nail Strengtheners and found that OPI is one of the top most used to improve nails. I also read that wearing gloves in the winter and fall weather will protect your hands and nails from dryness. And that wearing gloves while doing household chores also protects hands and nails from chemicals being used as well.
So I started a new regime this January 2021. I wear gloves during cold weather when I walk my dog. I wear gloves when I complete my house cleaning. I also started plastering coconut oil on my hands at bedtime and then doning cotton gloves while I slept. Oh boy - my hands were beautifully soft when I woke up..!!!
I also started massaging pure Vitamin E oil on my cuticles and nail beds every night. I even tried to get the oil under my nails and on the skin around my nails. I found this to be very relaxing by the way.
I also apply moisturizer to my hands and nails every single time I wash and scrub my hands...no kidding..every single time...!!!!
I follow the directions using OPI Nail Envy every night. Once a week I take it off, massage my bare nails and cuticles with Vitamin E oil and then reapply 2 coats and then start the process of reapplying a coat every night along with massaging the Vitamin E oil on my nails and cuticles. I'm trying so hard to keep this new regime up every night and every day.
Slowly I could see little improvements. The split in my thumbs healed and the pain and sensitivity stopped. Then the peeling slowly healed...my nails actually started getting stronger, not so bloody soft. The appearance of my nails has improved greatly! The feel of my nails has also improved greatly!
I just ordered and received my second bottle of OPI Nail Envy. I took a picture because this is the first time I have ever finished a bottle of nail polish..LoL!!
I know it's on the expensive side but it's soooo worth it..!!!
I highly recommend trying this product but I think you have to make changes on how you treat your nails infact how you treat your hands especially since Covid started. Our poor hands are being scrubbed countless times during the day, not to mention the sanitizer we have to apply whenever we enter a public establishment.
Make some changes on how you treat your hands and nails if you want to improve your nails. If your nails were in terrible state like mine just applying a nail strengthener won't cut it.
Think about it if you really want to make drastic improvements to your nails.
I'm so pleased with my nail improvements that I took pics to show others what little changes in how one treats their hands/nails/cuticles can look like. I think I will take a pic a few months from now because I'm very excited for the future of my nails - dare I say that I might have naturally long nails for once in my life..!!!
Go for it - cause you are soooo worth it honey!
Just bought a 3rd bottle of OPI Nail Envy - slowly but surely my natural nails are getting stronger and longer. One of my thumb nails are still splitting up the middle but it's significantly smaller and certainly less painful. I'm so thrilled that I finally have strong, pretty natural nails!!! And I will never cover them up with Acrylics😝
I can't believe how fast this 3rd bottle was delivered-amazing!!
