A gardener has shared how a £19 nail serum helped repair broken, weak, and peeling nails. The OPI Repair Mode Bond Building Nail Serum is designed to penetrate the nail surface and rebuild bonds from within.
Product Details
OPI describes the serum as the first-ever bond-building nail serum featuring Patented Ulti-Plex Technology. Normally priced at £29, it is currently available for £18.56 with the code 'treat20'. The brand claims nails appear visibly improved after the first application, with smoother, stronger nails less prone to breakage after six days.
Application Instructions
Apply the serum twice daily on bare nails for six days. Follow up with two coats of OPI's Nail Envy, then a moisturising treatment for nails and cuticles. Nail Envy is a sheer, tinted strengthener with Tri-Flex Technology, normally £23 but reduced to £14.72 with the same code.
Customer Reviews
The serum has nearly 600 customer reviews. One gardener wrote: 'Because of my job (I'm a gardener), even wearing gloves, my nails suffered. Broken, weak and peeling nails making my hands look unsightly. I used OPI Repair Mode Bond Building Nail Serum and this has really made a difference. My nails are now strong and healthy.'
A cleaner commented: 'My nails really suffer. It was easy to apply, and the serum dried really quickly, and it made such a difference.' Another buyer noted improvement after illness: 'My nails were soft and splitting, and after a week using this product, there was a noticeable improvement.'
However, not all reviews were positive. One customer said they 'haven't seen much of an improvement yet.'
