nail strengthener

Fingertip armor treatment

A nail strengthener is a cosmetic product applied to fingernails to prevent breaking, splitting, or peeling.

Most are clear lacquers containing hardening agents like formaldehyde or calcium.

Some are treatments meant to be worn under polish, others as a standalone protective coating: I've been using a nail strengthener since my nails started chipping.
