Barry M Cosmetics Super Mani 7-in-1 Nail Care Treatment - Strengthen, Hydrate & Protect Nails - 1 Count - Perfect for At-Home Manicures & Nail Repair

Worked great! Even made my gel polish matte!This product is great for men who don't want shiny nails.Happy with the product as used before. My issue is with the packaging! Seriously see the picture! Why!? Just why!?I am almost 30 and have always bitten nails, i couldnt even grow them whilst stupidying a beauty course, up untill 2 weeks, i desided enough was a enough, now im sure you would know that after that period of time i have brittle nails making it vertually impossible to grow.I brought this not as a nail strengthener, but just keep nail varnish on a little longer than 24hours (hands always in water)Well WOW is all i can say about the protectiveness of this 3 in 1.Not only has it kept nail varnish on for well over a week, my nails growth just took off without one breakage, i am so suprised.One of the mums at my daughters school is a nail tech, and she had offered to acrylic or gel my nails if i was able to grow them just a little bit (hand were a mess) long story short, she is so impressed that after a week, my nails have grown past my finger stumps, and you would never have thought id ever bitten my nails.Honestly this stuff is amazing, i shall continue the use and highly reccomend to anyone with brittle nails.Product fine!!However PLEASE Stop using Such a RIDICULOS amount of Packaging!!??I always had an issue with after applying nail varnish I would wait many hours before going to bed but still I would wake up in the morning with marks on my nails from the sheets!I went through and researched into many different quick dry nail varnishes and was a little bit worried by the reviews. So I decided to try out Barry M. Not only because it's vegan and cheap but also because it is a brand that I trust. All my other nail varnishes are from Barry M. And I thought I would give this a go before investing on a rather expensive quick dry top coat.So I read the instructions on the bottle and it said to apply over dry coloured nail varnish. The way I did my application was as follows:1. I applied my base coat (Barry M Cosmetics Super Mani 7-in-1 Nail Care)2. Set a timer for 10 minutes to let it dry3. I then applied a thin layer of colour (also a Barry M colour)4. Set a timer for 10 minutes to let it dry5. Applied my second coat of Barry M colour6. Set a timer for 10 minutes to let it dry7. I applied this quick dry top coat8. Set a timer for 10 minutes to let it dryOkay by this point it was bone dry BUT I had noticed that on the top half of the majority of my nails it had dried matt even though the colour I had applied was gloss...I found this to be a bit strange and thought it could be due to the ingredients in the quick dry top coat. I decided to try a second top coat. And it dried just as quickly while also solving this issue. It also was very shiny (I was worried it may not be as shiny as regular top coat). Also something to note is that THERE WAS NO SHRINKING!!! I am very happy. I now do not need to wait a million years for my nails to dry so will be buying more of this as it is now going to be used every time I do my nails!!!Please let me know if this has been helpful for you! ?I used this base and too clear cote with the 60second dry polishes I’m no pro at all and I think they turned out awesome they take a little longer to dry using it but well worth it have atleast 10-15 min drying time best for do it at night x
