I won't lie to you. I have used this product (or earlier versions of) since I was 17 years old!
Unlike my Mum and Sister my genes seemed to skip the strong healthy nail strand that they were blessed with. My nails were thin, brittle and refused to grow anywhere past my fingertips without flaking. That was until I discovered Rimmel's Nail Nurse (then Two week Treatment).

What Rimmel Says...
Double Duty Base coat that strengthens and helps to protect.
Vitamin and Calcium enriched formula to nourish your nails.
Help protects nails from cracking, splitting, peeling and breaking!
Fortunately, or unfortunately for me, I have been on so pretty nasty tablets over the last six months and my nails have taken the brunt of it. They have once again returned to their weak and flaky state. So, in the name of science, I have cut them back and will be taking you through 2 weeks of Rimmels Nail Nurse.
SO here we go....
Day 1
I have cut my nails as far back as I can without making them sore. The aim here is to get rid of where the flaky nail begins and back to a healthier starting point. Although the varnish looks pink, and a little sparkly, in the bottle rest assured it is clear once on the nail.
Day 7
Although my nails have not grown as much as I would have like (a few mms at best) they are significantly stronger, and so far no flaking has appeared. I removed, moisturised and reapplied the varnish approximately every 4 days, or earlier if you see it cracking.
Day 14
I swear this is a miracle treatment! My nails are tough and healthy AND have grown to a gorgeous length (3-4mm). The thumb and pointing finger on the right hand have started to flake a little but I am right handed and still on these horrid tablets, so they have done far better than I expected.
At this stage I would recommend cutting back and doing another few weeks of treatment.
I have been recommending this product for 18 years and have always have increadibly positive feedback. At £4.49 a pot it is far superior than most of its luxury competitors.
