User questions & answers

Question:	Can this be used as a base coat
Answer:	You can use pink armor for base coat
Question:	what are the ingredients
Answer:	Ethyl Acetate, butyl acetate, nitrocellulose, adipic acid/neopentyl glycol/trimellitic anhydride copolymer, acetyl Tributyl citrate, water, FORMALDEHYDE, camphor, isopropyl alcohol, etocrylene, fluorescent brightener 367 "dibenzoxazoyl naphthalene", red 6 lake, calcium pantothenate, hydrolyzed keratin, yellow 11, violet 2 Some people are"allergic" or sensitive to formaldehyde. That's why I put that ingredient in all caps. I took these ingredients right off the box it comes in.
Question:	I have very thin & rough nails after acrylics for 40 yesrs. Nothing seems to help them look healthy again after 6 months. Will this help
Answer:	No..I can't recommend this product I had the same exact problem you have thin, flaking nails I bought this nail polish which is rather expensive for nail polish it literally peeled of the same day, I have bought polish from the dollar store that worked better, I truly don't think this is the real pink armor and warn against spending your money here on this product. It didn't work at all.
Question:	I just took my acrylics, will Pink Armor help strengthen and heal my nails
Answer:	Coconut oil--(100% virgin, UNrefined) rubbed on the nails, especially cuticles, and all around the "matrix" (where the natural nail grows from), will nourish the entire nail bed, allowing for healthy re-growth. Apply at bedtime, rub excess into hands, it softens like crazy. Let it all absorb for a few minutes before retiring. PS Don't buy a "cosmetic-grade" --you will get 5 times the amount for half the price if you buy food grade organic virgin UN-refined, in the oils department of your grocery. About $7-8 for a 16 fl oz It is the exact same thing.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can you use gel polish with UV light on top of this product
Answer:	No
Question:	Does this let your nails "breathe" ... or should you remove for a few days
Answer:	The way I was using is :one coat a day for 3 or 4 days. Then remove and start over. I had no issues and it helped my nails. Hope this helps!
Question:	Does this help dry brittle nails
Answer:	Yes it will help with brittle nails. It contains Hexanal which is a powerful patented aldehyde that significantly hardens and improves the condition of the nail. An it also has Acetyl-Methionine & a Keratin like peptide that together add to the natural keratin of your nails to help reinforce them & prevent them from breakage. Thank you for your question i hope this helps.
Question:	Can I apply this once or twice a day to speed up nail growth
Answer:	I seriously doubt it. The growth plates of your nails area little bit in front of the last (closest to the end of your fingers) and just behind the cuticle of each nail. What you see as nail growth is being pushed out from the growth plates. The result of this is that the fingernails that you see are made up of dead fingernail cells. Just like with your hair, and that is why it doesn’t hurt your hairs or nails to trim them. We moisturize our nails to prevent them from becoming brittle or cracking just as we put a conditioner on our hair. You can, however help protect your nails by using nail moisturizers, hand cream and wearing gloves during household chores or going outside in the cold. So, no, nothing you put on your nails will speed nail growth, but good hand and nail care can and will protect your nails to permit healthy nails. AND make sure you eat foods rich in protein (like meat, tofu, and fish and make sure you get your calcium.

Question:	What makes it's burn

Answer:	Overall, it goes on smoothly and fills ridges nicely however deep ridges remain visible.
Question:	Salons filed down to much, nails like paper now. Once this helps grow them, can I use as bottom coat on my own gel system. No filing

User questions & answers

Question:	does it make your nails longer and stronger
Answer:	California has what they call Proposition 65. That demands certain types of labeling on ALL products going into California. It is extremely specific as to what labels must include for all different products. I do not believe the Meyers products have a separate label, approved just for California requirements. Thus, they will not allow it to be shipped in.
Question:	Good nail strengthener? 7 or 9 free? Thanks so much
Answer:	No, non of the Mrs Meyers products are antibacterial. However, the FDA has stated that regular soap and water are all that's necessary for regular hand washing, and "antibacterial" soaps are unnecessary. “Consumers may think antibacterial washes are more effective at preventing the spread of germs, but we have no scientific evidence that they are any better than plain soap and water,” said Janet Woodcock, M.D., director of the FDA’s Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER). “In fact, some data suggests that antibacterial ingredients may do more harm than good over the long-term.” So, up to you if that's important or not.
Question:	Is this a full size bottle or one of the mini ones
Answer:	It smells very sharp and artificial to me, to the point it almost gives me a headache. Not a soft, natural scent at all (basil).
Question:	Is this polish easily removed with regular polish remover
Answer:	The bottle does not say its antibacterial. But medical recommendations say to NOT use antibacterial soaps as bacterials eventually develop immunity to them, similar to over-use or indiscriminate use of antibiotics.

User questions & answers

Question:	Cruelty free
Answer:	Teslas and iPhones are also made in China. It all depends on whether the designer is trying to make it on the cheap or not.
Question:	Can I use this under nail polish
Answer:	Sharper than normal pair of clippers. So it clips through your nails like butter (instead of sometimes bending), your nails have cleaner edges so it doesn't peel, and it lasts longer - sometimes cheaper pairs will fall apart after not so long.
Question:	Once applied, does leave a shine
Answer:	I just checked amazon.com. You may buy a wire cutter for about $5.00. Why on earth would you use a $20 NAIL CLIPPER to "cut though 22 Gauge wire"?
Question:	Where can i buy the original nail optimizer made by olan laboratories
Answer:	Sharp blades and other tools are made using AUS-34 stainless steel, but even the highest quality stainless steel is not completely rustproof. It’s best to dry them after use.
