1. OPI Nail Envy, Original Formula

OPI’s Nail Envy happens to be one of my favorite nail strengthening products and judging from all the great reviews, I suspect I’m not the only one who feels this way! Nail Envy strengthens damaged or weak nails with calcium and hydrolyzed wheat protein. It doesn’t go on totally clear, but with a slightly milky color so it’s perfect to wear by itself and not feel like your nails are naked. If you decide to try this out, try to find it on Amazon as you can usually find it cheaper there.

2. Nutra Nail 5-to-7 Day Nail Growth, Calcium Formula

Another bonus is that it’s free of formaldehyde, toluene and DBP.
