OPIRepair Mode Bond Building Nail Serum | Keratin Protein Nail Strengthening Treatment | For Stronger Nails & Nail Growth

Saved my nails!
TLDR- GET THIS!!! It worked for me w/consistency and patience. Product is a watery consistency and dries fast!My nails had become thin and brittle, so my solution to keep them from bending and breaking below the free edge constantly, was to start keeping them coated in builder gel and UV gel polish. That worked great for a few years, but my nails were in desperate need of a break from having them constantly polished.Once all of the gel polish was off I knew I was in trouble. My nails were now beyond thin, they were paper thin and peeling. The slightest touch would bend them. It was painful. I couldn’t even scratch myself. And of course, when you know you can’t scratch, is when you become the itchiest human ever. It was torture. All of my nails actively hurt.So I went on the hunt for something that could help. I eventually settled on this OPI Repair Mode. It arrived and I started using it immediately and religiously. Twice a day, every day. Without fail. I had reminders set on my phone to be sure I didn’t forget (thanks, ADHD!).The product itself is thin and watery. Not at all like nail polish. And you don’t have to have a steady hand to apply it. Just slop it on, wait a minute or so and go. Super fast and easy!The first month of use I would go back and forth with myself trying to figure out if it was working or not. It was definitely working some and my nails had become less painful, but I still couldn’t scratch any itches I had. My nails were still thin and breaking, even though I kept them as short as possible.Toward the end of the second month is when I finally knew progress was being made. My nails weren’t peeling or painful anymore. And I was able to lightly scratch my itches again. Finally!!After a solid 2 months of use, I decided to cut down to using the product once a day and start incorporating revitalizing cuticle oil (I used Cuccio that I found here on Amazon) into my nail rehab routine. I would use the cuticle oil on my nails and the surrounding skin (rubbing it in as much as possible) in the morning and usually at least once during the day, then at night I’d put on the Repair Mode. I did that for a couple of weeks, then stopped using the Repair Mode altogether.Now I just use the oil a few times a day without a schedule or reminders. Just whenever I remember or feel like my nails are feeling extra dry. It’s been about 3 months now and my nails are almost back to what I’d call normal.I really hope this review helps anyone who was in my shoes. It’s not fun to have painful, bendy, peeling, breaking, nails, but there is hope! I hope this works for you like it did for me!!

My nails went from terrible to beautiful in 6 weeks.
Works well and easy to use. If your nails are bad, be patient. The old needs time to grow out.My nails were always thin and peeled so I had to keep them very short. There was no strength in them.I used OPI Repair Mode for 4-6 weeks before all the old damaged nail had grown out. I then had nice strong nail growth. I actually need to trim (file) my nails now! I am so happy with this product. I use it about one a week or less now to maintain.

Healthy nails
I have had soft nails all my life. Bent and broke so easily. I used this product for only a few days and I was amazed that it actually worked!!!!! My nails are soooooo much harder. I even had to tell my sister about it because she has soft nails too. I love this product and will keep purchasing it. ❤️

Great but with a few flaws
The product works as long as you use it twice a day. I’ve NEVER had strong nails, until now. It’s definitely worth buying. However….the reason I gave it four stars instead of five is because of their stupid packaging. First, the bottle is like tinted windows in your car. You can’t see inside the bottle so you don’t know if it’s almost gone. What idiot thought this one up? Second, the bottle is narrow and tall for its size so it’s easy to tip over which I just did. I wasted about a quarter of the bottle. I’m only guessing it’s that much by the amount on the table since I can’t see inside the bottle.Every other O•P•I product comes in a stable bottle so why not this one??

New OPI item for me
I'm on my second of six days usage recommended by OPI to repair/strengthen damaged nails. I must say, I am impressed. I can only imagine how nice my nails will be on day 6. Looking forward to using this product specially in the dry winter months when my nails peel almost daily. Wonderful results already!

Worth the price.
Pricey but worth it. Between age and years of gel polish my nails were dry and brittle and no matter whatvi tried it never seemed to help. I finally broke down and bought the OPI and I am so happy that I did. It doesnt happen over night but after 5 days it has made a big difference.

Did not help........
I used this for weeks and I don't notice a difference. It's disappointing because this stuff was expensive.

Worth it!
I wore acrylic over my nails for almost a year and decided to get my natural nails healthy. I used twice a day foe 6 days as instructed. I definitely see a healthy improvement
