Break Fix Liquid Nail Patch

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've used the Essie Break Fix lLquid nail polish patch on a few separate nail breaks now, and it genuinely saved me every time. It holds small to moderate cracks together for a few solid days - long enough for the nail to grow out instead of forcing me to cut everything short. For me, that's huge because when a nail breaks, I usually end up picking it down to nothing. This stops that spiral completely and actually let my nails recover. It works especially well on those annoying edge cracks and the little layered splits that always snag on things. The tiny brush makes it easy to target just the break, and it dries fast with a smooth, shiny finish. No stickiness, no rough texture, and it disappears under polish. I get the best results when I use a primer first, and I've learned not to press too hard with the brush - it feels like it could snap if you do. Once it sets, the nail feels sealed and protected instead of fragile. After a few successful saves, this has officially earned a permanent spot in my emergency nail kit.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this Break Fix Liquid Nail Patch from Essie. It works incredibly well for any broken or torn nails. I love having this for my nail emergencies.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This worked well on repairing my nails and getting them prepped for manicure but I don’t think this is good long term more like in a pinch before heading out

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was hopeful tgat this product would save my break until it grew out, but it is lt lasted a few hours. If you dont mind reapplying a few tunes throughout the day, it might be able to save the nail. I like that it dries down quickly and has a nice smooth finish.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This has really come in handy. I have some side breaks. I applied this, then applied nails wraps. It really did help keep my nails intact. I didn’t want to cut them just yet, so this gives me a little more time. The brush is small enough, where you can also apply under the nail. Dries pretty fast, and doesn’t smell too strong.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Idk maybe this break was too far gone but it didn’t hold more than an hour. Probably would work better for someone with thicker nails though. Pretty easy to apply and would come off easily if need be.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Since I’m a mother I don’t have so much time to make my nails in a beauty salon, sometimes it breaks and it’s difficult to keep it long and strong, but with this break fix I can continue with my nails longer and stronger than ever, it helps me to keep on point my nails even if it are broken.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is good for my nails because I get little breaks in them while at work sometimes. It didn't take much to cover the areas and give it a few days to look better than before. Doesn't feel sticky but has a nice shine that looks good on my natural nails. A little goes a long way and it really helped my nails stay chip free.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Definitely leaves your nails feeling stronger, and it lasts really well. Similar products sometimes lift soon after application. It also dries really fast. I did try to apply to one of my husband’s broken nails, and it didn’t quite work as a patch on his break. But it was a bad one, so it might work better for less difficult breaks.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The brush was shorter and smaller allowing a more precise application. I am notorious for slicing my nail since I work with boxes at work. This helped bond my nail and prevent the nail from losing a layer on the top of my nail. It did a great job repairing and it was a shiny finish.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a decent product that has definitely saved me from a painfully short nail trim a time or two. The product itself feels very much like superglue but the tiny brush makes it very easy to apply right where you need it. I have successfully managed to keep it off my skin so I can’t say how similar it is to superglue in that aspect but it does a good job repairing cracked nails. It doesn’t seem to have a lot of longevity especially when doing things like washing dishes so it will need to be reapplied to continuously be effective. Overall though - I’d recommend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy to understand instructions. Simple application. Very reliable brand. Nice texture and even consistency. Helped save a few of my nails as the tore from remodeling bathroom.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I didn’t have high hopes on this stuff because my nail was almost split into, but it did! You couldn’t even tell my fingernail was split. I was able to grow my fingernail out and I didn’t have to cut it too short. So easy to use because of nice and small brush

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Essie Break Fix Liquid Nail patch works great ! Easy to follow instructions, Easy to apply, great packaging, trusted brand. Saves your nail by fixing the break !

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This nails fix kept my broken nail secure for 3 full days , strong and reliable, perfect for emergency nails repair use!!!✨🤍👌wow 💅💅💅💅💅💅

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Not very helpful. It advertises that it’s supposed to repair broken nails, yet I tried to use this three times over the last month to repair ripped & torn fingernails and within two days, they broke off again. But, it did dry fast, brush was nice, and the smell wasn’t too bad, so I’m giving two stars.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is great as a clear OR to help with brittle broken nails. Coverage is great and a little goes a long way. Easy to remove with your standard polish remover. Does have a strong scent but nothing out of the ordinary for a clear coat/nail fix. It is thin so be mindful when you are applying. Overall would recommend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love Essie. They're by far my favorite nail polish brand. However, this product kind of stumped me. At first, I thought it was supposed to like magically heal your split nail, which I was like yeah right, not possible. Then I read what it's actually supposed to do, which is just as impossible-sounding. It's supposed to create a seal on a broken fingernail for up to 5 days. I honestly don't understand why you would patch up a broken nail for 5 days. I would personally just clip it off, because it would drive me crazy, but I guess I can think of a few instances, such as if you were out and needed to get through one night; if you've got fake nails, I guess that would work until you saw your nail stylist, and I really can't think of any other uses. I will say that I tried it on a nail that was kind of chipping. It wasn't split or anything, but I have regular nails, and they don't break in half. They're not strong, but they don't break in half. IDK it's a weird product IMO, but I can definitely see it being used by girlies with fake nails to use until they see their nail stylist! Either way, it's kind of a cool concept, but still confusing. Lol. I still love you, Essie! ❤️

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It works pretty well at fixing broken nails for a few days, and it's smooth. Easy to apply and long-lasting. It works fast and it's very good to have it an emergency situation.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Essie break fix liquid nail patch is pretty good to repair a quick broken nail, however it doesn’t strength it so you would need a strengthener to work with it . However you can’t see it h der nail polish and don’t apply too many coats of the fixer because it will be a thick look if you do. Overall very nice

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is great idea to have to fix the nails that broken. I think it is somehow helpful and really worth to try. I definitely love to have this at home myself when i need to fix my nails. I love how this has no color so nails look still natural when use it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This break fix liquid nail patch from Essie is a really good add-on to any at home nail kit. Once my nails grow past a certain point, I’m always breaking one. I didn’t get a chance to really fully use it on a big broken nail. But it seems to be easy enough to use. Thin layer then gentle press together at the break. Then another layer for reassurance.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great product. It strengthens the nail really nicely. If you break your nails like me before an important event this is a go to! Fixes immediately.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] i’m very experienced with using nail glue and nail polish. I think that this nail glue takes a really long time to dry. I do see the point of it because it kind of builds a layer similar to how UV gel builder does. however, I personally don’t like this product. I think that it didn’t work for my nails very well and ended up smearing. I don’t like how long it takes to dry. But it is nail polish at the same time so- maybe it’s a ME problem

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried this nail repair stuff for free in exchange for an honest review. On the day after I applied it to the broken side of my nail, it was no longer working. I used a couple coats like the directions said to, and it just isn’t effective. I wouldn’t recommend it to a friend. I think using nail polish is just as effective if not more so than this.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like this as an option for handling tiny snags in my nails to help my pedicure last longer. The product is easy to use and fairly quick-drying. It does have a potent smell, but it’s not enough to deter me from using the product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this product for free in exchange for my honest opinion. Love that Essie thought about something like this. It’s been a game changer for me as I work a lot with water and my nails are fragile!! It smells like nail polish remover. Works great and dries quickly! Highly recommend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is great to use to patch your nail when it starts to crack at the edge. It goes on easy and smooth. It dries pretty quick. And then you are good to go about your day.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The tiny brush makes it easy to apply small patches. It takes a bit to dry and I couldn't get it to blend seamlessly. And it didn't hold the nail together as well as I was hoping. Has a strong chemical smell, which I did not like

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy to apply keeps nails strong and long. Smell is a bit powerful. No need to remove. Clear and won’t affect nail color. Some of the ingredients are questionable.
