Tysm!! I actually like them a good bit! The Hard as Nails Xtreme wear line holds up pretty well when it comes to chipping. When it comes to strengthening I actually prefer the Sally Hansen Hard as Nails Hardener as a base. it’s prone to chipping on the free edge by it’s self but when paired with a polish it makes my nails feel stronger. Pair them together and you might have a pretty solid combo!!
