Have heard a lot more recommendations for Nail Envy than the other one.

Am using Nail Magic at the moment and someting weird is happening to my nail tips(the white part). They are extending down into the nail but not in a uniform way.. Lopsided. Tis very strange. Help!!!

Don't panic! Just get the Nail Envy in the green box - it's brilliant. Couple of weeks and you'll have lovely strong nails. It's about £18 in Boots but I've bought it from eBay for less. Try Seche Vite too as a topcoat, it's lovely. :)

£11 on Amazon.

Definitely Nail Envy it's brilliant.

Orly Nail Armour or Mavala nail hardener are both way better than nail envy.
Having said that, OPI polish is really good. Get it from radiantbabe-beauty.co.uk/zencart/ -she also sells on Amazon and is very reasonable.

Thank you ... But what is Nail Magic doing to my nails?

Neither of those did anything for me, but Nailtiques did. It is brilliant stuff. Got mine on Amazon.

Second the Radiant Babe recommendation ( despite the off-putting name) - I found it by accident and have been using it to supply my China Glaze habit. As for Nail Envy vs Nail Magic, I bought Nail Envy in a desperate attempt to improve my alcohol gel ravaged crappy nails, it did nowt - just about to start with the Nail Magic today, I live in hope.

Nail Magic has started to do something
very strange to my nails - the white is eating into the rest of the nail- slowly moving downwards -in an uneven way- this happened before years ago with some other brand of nail product whose name i forget. Has this happened to anyone else??
Worrying Hmm

Annie, I would stop using it and maybe ask at a chemist. That can't be right.
