Questions & Answers

What is the name of the vendor?

This is an Orly product that can be purchased at most salons that provide nail services or sell nail products.

When you first start using this treatment, the directions say to apply every other day. Is it necessary to use a remover before applying the polish each time?

I layered it over my old coat. Once a week, I take it down and start over.

What is the recommended frequency of use? What is the maximum number of coats you can wear at once?

It served as a base coat, and I only applied one coat. I'll apply a second coat if the tops of my nails appear to be flaky. What is the frequency of your visits? When it comes to my nails, I only do them once a week.

Is it possible to use this as a primer?

Yes! In fact, it's the only color I use as a base for any other. I really like this product, and the Sec n Dry is also fantastic. After a few coats, my nails can take up to 5 hours to dry, but this takes two hours or less to dry completely.

Selected User Reviews For Orly Nail Defense, 0.6 Ounce

MY SPLIT NAIL HAS BEEN CORRECTED! For nearly THREE YEARS, I've had a split down the middle crack in my thumb nail
5/5

EVERYTHING has been tried- Oils, vitamins, cuticle creams, and any and all strengthening top coats imaginable Some people contributed a little, some people contributed a lot, and some people contributed nothing at all - This is, without a doubt, the best! It's the only thing that 100% has kept my nail from splitting! If I get too much on my skin, I get a tingling/burning sensation, but it's not a problem if I apply it neatly. Y’all - This is effective. Do it. Split-free nails are a delight!.

It's fantastic! This is fantastic! It won't grow your nails overnight, but it will strengthen them and prevent them from breaking
5/5

My nails are extremely thin, and even the tiniest bump can cause them to break. For the first time in my life, I was able to get my nails past the tips of my fingers after using it for about two weeks. I wish I had remembered to take a before shot!.

Only a hard covering is available
3/5

This creates a hard, lustrous surface, but that's about it in my opinion. My fingernails peel in layers and bend in bends, as many others show and describe; however, after two months of use, I've discovered that Orly Nail Defense instantly delays impact damage and stress, as most "painted-on" nail polishes do. Although "shell" type coverings do penetrate and improve nail health, adhesion, and flexibility, they do not penetrate the nail. Despite careful smoothing with a crystal nail file, it actually makes my nails more brittle, resulting in more peeling of the top layer from the nail edges. Not really a "treatment," but a long-term boost in nail strength. There was nothing noteworthy about it.

Finally! Finally! My nails are extremely brittle and peel on a regular basis
5/5

I've tried biotin, prenatal pills, and a variety of other supplements. I've also tried every nail polish known to man for this condition, ranging from Nail-O-Matic to Nail-O-Matic. NOTHING has worked for me, including Tek, Sally Hanson, Nail Envy, and others. For years, I've been looking for a cure. THIS IS THE END! No chipping, a lovely shine, and my nails are instantly strengthened. I can't say enough good things about it!.

This is the best nail polish
5/5

I adore this product and went to great lengths to locate it on Amazon after my local beauty supply store closed. Because I have thin nails that chip and peel easily, Orly Nail Defense has been extremely beneficial. I really like this item.

Thank you for taking care of my nails
5/5

It works like a charm. My nails are weak and brittle. My nails were a nightmare because I play guitar as well. This item is outstanding. My nails are now extremely hard and strong as a result of using it on a regular basis.

My nails have turned yellow
3/5

Pro: While wearing it, I noticed that my nails were firmer and less flexible.
Con: It changed color to YELLOW! It turned a nasty yellow-orange color when I used it as a top coat over a blue nail polish. By the next day, it had turned a bright green color. Maybe it was an allergic reaction to the polish, I reasoned. After a day, I gave it another chance by using it as a clear polish over my natural nail, and it turned yellow again. br>I would avoid this product in favor of OPI Nail Envy. I understand you're probably looking for a less expensive option. Alternatively, you could go to a dollar store. My Wet N Wild nail strengthener from Dollar Tree didn't turn yellow either.

I waited six weeks before writing this review
3/5

Before writing this review, I used this product for six weeks. "I'll give it another week," I would tell myself. I figured I just needed to give it more time because the reviews were so positive, and I figured 6 weeks would suffice. I'm sorry to say that this product completely destroyed my nails. It weakened them rather than strengthening them by causing them to split and peel. What a letdown!.
