[Revlon] Calcium Gel Nail Hardener

Brand: Revlon
Collection: nail care
Polish: 975 8689-95 Calcium Gel Nail Hardener

 
































I have been wearing nail polish non-stop lately, and I have noticed some splits, so I have decided to try Revlon's Calcium Gel Nail Hardener.

The following text in italics is what Revlon say about their Calcium Gel Nail Hardener:

Get 60% thicker nails in just 4 days. Instantly bonds to weak, thin nails making them thicker and stronger.
•Calcium-enriched formula repairs cracked, split and peeling nails
•Helps make nails feel stronger and flexible
•DBP, Toluene and Formaldehyde Free
  
EXPERT TIPS:


• Apply one coat over bare nails. For best results, apply daily.
• Can also be used as a base coat.


Revlon's Calcium Gel Nail Hardener is a milky white polish that applies clear on the nails.


I also apply the nail hardener on the undersides of my nails where there are splits. The polish miraculously seal the split and glue them back together!

day 1 (1 coat)



day 5 (5 coats)


After 4 days, my nails are obviously a lot stronger. The gel-like finish is lovely as well, and I have been asked if I am wearing press on nails or gel nails.

It works well as a base coat as well, but its dry time is rather long. For a thin coat, I waited for about 15 minutes for it to dry; and almost 30 minutes for a thick coat. Furthermore, I would recommend applying it in thin coats, since there might be bubbles when you apply it in thick coats.

The Calcium Gel Nail Hardener can be easily removed with nail polish remover. After taking it off, my nails still feel stronger than before. I would totally recommend this strengthener to anyone who wants a budget nail hardener.
