Great for a broken nail
ChasityT

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product was very easy to use! It’s an amazing product that definitely helped repair my nail when the nail was splitting. I have very brittle nails. So this product definitely came in handy! The coverage is amazing and it definitely works. I highly recommend this nail repair liquid by Essie!

Disappointing
Batia

Really disappointed tried several times my nail is splitting and I have tried everything at the end. I had to cut the nail because it kept causing me issues. I also went to several stores in order to get this product and I brought it all the way back from Florida.

Hi there Batia, we are so incredibly sorry to hear this. It is so frustrating to have to cut a nail you've been caring for, and it breaks our hearts to know this happened after you went through so much effort to find our product and bring it all the way home from Florida. That is dedication, and we hate that we let you down. This treatment is made to patch broken nails for up to 5 days For best results, at first sign of nail break, snag, or tear, move break back into place to connect the nail. Apply a thin layer of Break Fix over the nail break, snag, or tear, concentrating between the crack. Gently hold the break together to help the edges bond as the formula dries. Allow to dry completely. Approximately 3 minutes. Apply a second thin layer and allow to dry. Apply a third layer if needed. If you would like to speak to us directly about your recent purchase, give us a call @ 866-313-7845 M-F 9 am-5:30 pm ET

Works well on small tears
RebeccaH

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have really weak nails, I felt like this helped hold minor tears together longer and worked well under gel polish. It goes on clear and looks great by itself. But I used it under my gel to help when I tore a nail and it seemed to hold up.

Saved my nails more than once
AmandaJ

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I didn’t realize how much I’d use this until I started having my nails grow. I’ve always had problems with nail strength so once they get to a certain length they crack or snag so this came in handy for those times. The formula is easy to apply, goes on clear, dries quickly and adds a layer of protection without feeling thick or bulky before adding nail polish. This is a product you don’t think about needing until you do and it works great. Definitely worth keeping around if you’re prone to nail breaks

Tamy21022002, We are very sorry to hear that the Break Fix Liquid Nail Patch is not working for you at all. This innovative liquid nail patch, patches nail breaks, snags, and tears for up to 5 days. so it is incredibly disappointing when you invest your time and money into a product and see absolutely no results. We know not every nail break can be saved, but for best results, at the first sign of a nail break, move the break back into place. Apply a thin layer of Break Fix over the nail break, concentrating between the crack. Then, press the broken nail together to help the edges bond as the formula dries (approx. 3 minutes). Apply a second thin coat and allow to dry completely. Apply a 3rd thin layer if needed. For optimal results, apply to a bare nail. If you would like to speak to us directly about your recent purchase, give us a call @ 866-313-7845 M-F 9 am-5:30 pm ET

Not great
EmilyG
2 months ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like the small size for easy on the go storage. The wand is doe footed which makes it easy for precision application. It also dries fairly fast, even with multiple coats. I have thinner nails so I had high hopes as my nails always rip and snag. I work with my hands as well but nothing heavy duty. It only lasted me an hour of actual hand use which was pretty disappointing. It doesn’t have a very strong hold. I wouldn’t use again or recommend

Does Not Work for Vertical Nail Splits
Hockett03
3 months ago
This product does not work for repairing a vertical split that extends back into the nail bed. I followed the directions carefully, but it failed to hold or provide any real support. Save your money—you're better off going to a professional or using a strong nail glue instead.
