Does anyone else have a problem keeping nail polish from peeling off after using Wen? I have tried everything I can think of to keep this from happening. Wen softens my nail polish and it just peels off. Help Please!

My nails are never without polish, even if it's just a clear treatment. I've never noticed this happening.

What nail products are you using? Are any new?

I've used WEN for over 8 years, using nail polish the majority of those years, never had a problem.

That happened to me before I used Wen. Depending on the brand of polish you are using, some will peel and/or lift from the natural oils in your nail. I have since put the shellac polish on and have had no issues. My polish looks as great as it did 4 weeks ago.

No problems for me. I use WEN, I do water aerobics 3x a week and my nail polish stays on whether I do it myself or have it done professionally.

How does it soften lacquer? Eeps...that can't be a good selling point.

Seems like I'm in the minority, but I agree with you Pam! I started using Sephora's Formula X last year. LOVED it because it stayed on for almost a week. I bought a ton of colors and used it all the time.

I started using WEN last November. Ever since then, my polish doesn't last more than 1-2 days. If I put it on at night, the very next day the ends are all chipped. I'm assuming it's because I spend much more time cleansing my hair, and using my fingers to massage my scalp. I love my hair, but not my nails! I've had to stick to clear polish ever since I started with WEN because it just won't stay on. I thought it was just me.

I have having problems with Butter London, it would flake off within hours. I had to switch from Orly Bonder base coat to Sticky base coat and that solved the problem. I don't think the Butter London liked the Orly Bonder for whatever reason (they were not compatible Smiley Very Happy)
