Probelle Touch N’ Grow Nail Hardener | Garlic and Lime Review

Leave a Comment

I was battling with bringing the health back to my nails for months after removing my gel nails. I’ve tried treatments and vitamins without success, even biotin didn’t work this time. I started to become discouraged and felt like I did permanent damage to my nails. I swore off gel nails and said I would only use gel polishes in the future. Yes, my nails were that bad. They were soft and you could look at them and a nail would break.

I’ve had, Formula 1 and Formula 2, Probelle Touch N’ Grow Nail Hardeners for a while before I was finally able to give them a try. I was testing another treatment and when the hardeners first came in. When that was over I gave Formula 2 with Garlic and Lime a try.  I decided to use that version because I had some discoloration from nail polish staining. I am guilty of not always using a base coat. Don’t judge me! LOL!

Anywho, here are the deets!

What They Say:

Probelle Touch N' Grow Nail Hardener Garlic and Lime Formula 2 
“Formulated with Garlic and Lime, Touch N’ Grow PLUS is the perfect formula to maintain healthy nails.  With special elements extracted from garlic, not only does this amazing formula harden and grows the nail, but it also protects against fungus.  Along with Garlic, Lime is a key additive to maintain hardness and growth while restoring the whiteness of the nail.”

I loved the idea of being able to harden and brighten my nails at the same time. Of course, I was skeptical because of my recent experiences with other products. I decided to give this product a try for TWO months instead of my usual month time frame.

Probelle Touch N' Grow Nail Hardener Formula 1 Original

Ingredients:

ethyl acetate,butyl acetate, nitrocellulose, propyl acetate, tosylamide / formaldehyde resin , isopropyl alcohol, triphenyl phosphate , trimethyl pentanyl diisobutyrate , stearalkonium bentonite , ethyl tosylamide , camphor, diacetone alcohol, stearalkonium hectorite, benzophenone – 1, citric acid, dimethicone formaldehyde, water, allium sativum bulb extract, citrus medica limonum fruit extract.

What I Say:

I noticed my nails started to harden with taking Viviscal vitamins (more about that next time) but they still had some softness that was bothering me. So, I wanted to put Probelle Touch N’ Grow to the test to see if it would finally get me back to my original state. I was shocked as all get out. I noticed within three weeks my nails were back to normal. I thought I was imagining things but it was true. I finally had healthy nails again.

The funny part was I did not follow the exact directions on the package. You are supposed to use the hardener daily for “several days” and I only used it twice per week for the first few weeks. After that point, I moved to use the product once a week. I can only imagine what the results would have been had I used it daily for the first week or so; however, I can’t complain about my results.

Now, I will say I didn’t notice any lightening of my nail color. According to the directions, you are supposed to use the product as a base coat but it just dawned on me the other day that maybe I should have applied my normal base coat…the one I use when I remember. I still have some polish discoloration and I noticed the last color I used stained my thumb nail. So, I am disappointed that it did not lighten my nails.

However, I will take healthy stained nails any day over the soft damaged hot mess I have been working with for months. I am very funny about the products I recommend but this is a definite must-have if you have damaged nails or are in the market for a nail hardener.

You can find Probelle Touch N’ Grow Nail Hardener Formula 1 and Formula 2 on the Probelle site for $14. I will also add a little goes a long way. I’ve been using the product for two months and you can see how much product I have left in the bottle.
