BARIELLEOne Step Nail Mender .47 oz. - Repairs Split, Chipped and Damaged Nails Clear

Great product! I was sceptical, but I am seeing good results. My nails are much stronger, not peeling, and the base of my nails is coming in clear. I didn't realize that the skin under my nails had turned a reddish color. The tips are stronger, but still crack a little. I think once all the red disappears, that will go away too.

I wish I took a photo of my nail before I applied the product on it. My nail broke off completely, it was a separate piece. I lined it up back to the base of my remaining nail, put the product on and... it glued it back together!! And the best part is it stays on while doing stuff at home, washing dishes, pulling on my clothes and so on. You can't even see that it was broke off before! Yes, I definitely recommend it, do buy it!Update:The glue was holding on for 4 days until I hit something and the nail fell off. I guess if it wasn't for that it would hold for a longer time. Still, pretty good as for 4 days. Definitely helpful in "emergency" situations

I am very disappointed in this product considering it absolutely does not work for most of the things it’s advertised for. The only thing i can see it helping with is faint ridges but, basically any nail polish, color or clear, can solve that issue. But as far as splitting or broken nails, it’s useless. I felt compelled to write a review to add my experience and help others avoid experiencing the same disappointment ..My thumb nail broke and began splitting below the skin line so i, naturally, couldn’t cut or tear it off. I needed to also prevent it from snagging and tearing off since that would be incredibly painful and would cause severe damage. So I needed something to mend it since I need to let it grow out. So I looked up “nail repair for natural nails” and this was the first option and was an amazon choice. Everything it advertised was what I needed.. it literally has a picture of a nail that is almost entirely broken but the after picture shows it good as new.. I figured it wouldn’t look that good but I figured it would at least mend a tiny break on the edge.The bottle instructions say apply two coats and let dry and touch up till nails grow out. I first applied two coats. I personally didn’t think it dries especially fast, took about 5-7 minute’s each coat to dry enough to not come off and an additional 5 or so minutes to dry entirely and be hard. At that point, I tested the break by gently flexing my nail. I noticed it was still raising up and splitting. I thought maybe i didn’t get all the way to the edge so I applied two more coats. Again, each coat takes about 5 minutes to dry and additional time at the end of the second coat to dry hard so about 20 minutes later after it was hard enough, I flexed my nails super gently again. But even with a tiny amount of pressure, it still splits. So then I decided to flex the nail as I applied it to let the polish go into the split on the first coat to hopefully seal it completely closed. I then followed with another coat.. mind you i now have SIX coats of polish on now. I let that dry.. again I tested it and again, it easily split?!? How?? My last resort was to slather the break and my skin at the edge with the polish figuring the polish will come off my skin eventually but then I know i got all the way to the edge of the break. This is the SEVENTH coat.. test it, again the break splits open. The pictures I provided are at the end when I finally gave up after seven coats. It literally did nothing to help.Basically, this is just so so clear nail polish. Like drug store quality nail polish. It helps with harding nails but again, most polishes do and there are many options for nail hardening polish that work much better for half the price. This is called nail repair, I needed it to repair, as it was advertised and pictured to do. If anything it would harm my nails if I leave it on because it wouldn’t allow my nails to breathe and be healthy which will let them grow longer on their own. If this doesn’t repair anything, then it’s useless and a waste of time and money.I recommend avoiding this at all costs. It’s just basic, cheap clear nail polish. You can get that anywhere for a portion of the price of this and, definitely do not expect it to work anything like it’s described to do. If you want harder nails, I recommend trying a product actually designed for that because this does nothing more than typical nail polish would do. If you have deep ridges, prepare to apply a ton of coats of this stuff.. if you simply want clear nail polish or, to smooth faint ridges, then this is your stuff. As for everything else, total and complete disappointment and deceiving false advertising.

I wanted to counter some of the negative reviews about this nail product. While it absolutely CANNOT MEND A BROKEN NAIL, I have found it to be an incredible topcoat. If you know anything about fingernails, then you know that a wrap, glue or some kind of gel or acrylic coating is what is going to do that. So I didn't buy it to mend a nail.I've had this bottle for two years and have used it occasionally. It's hasn't changed in consistency. It still dries well--I keep the bottle tightly closed. I try a lot of different nail products, not the same ones over and over. I had professional manicures for over 25 years and do my own nails now. Never had acrylics or gel except for an occasional nail break. But what I noticed is that with this as a topcoat, my home manicure had a durable quality and the coating was a bit unique. Not a thick gloss, but shiny. I gave it four stars instead of five because it cannot mend a nail. Maybe you could use it with a paper or silk wrap?

This product is not a miracle but it was pretty good. I was able to put several layers which helped.

My splitting nails have improved greatly after one week.

so far my nails are trying to repair, it is too early to give it a complete opinion

Works good, but you will want to build up at least 6 layers or more to really be effective. I put on another layer each morning and have ten or twelve layers on a split finger nail. I will continue to ad layer until I am satisfied.
