I have used this product before. I have tried them all but to no avail.. I live in a small rural community and it is hard to get here. In fact you can't even get the polish. If you use this product exactly as the instructions tell you, you will have beautiful long nails. As a matter of fact, I stopped using it for about 3 years and my nails did great. My nails would never grow out without peeling no matter what products I used before I used this. It is wonderful. I have decided to use it again because my lifestyle has changed and my hands are getting more abused so I need the extra help. You won't be wasting your money. Most women think that I have artificial nails and don't belive me when I them they are mine. They really think that I am lying. Even my own siter inlaws don't believe me. Now, that is a compliment!
