Yeah, it should add just a bit of strength to the nail and help with polish adhesion.
I've been alternating Minxing and Julietting my right hand for the last few weeks-- even Minxed over the Juliettes once. The Juliettes really did improve my polish wear! Which is saying a lot since I'm oh-so-not careful about my polish when I wear it. It usually lasts about 10 minutes. But I really tried to be careful with it to see if it made a big difference and I got a good 6 days of wear out of my polish with the Juliettes before I had dropped enough acetone on them to make them look like crud. I'm going in tomorrow and Julietting my one natural nail client. She leaves on vacation on Monday. She is very diligent with her nail care and usually repolishes her own nails every 3 to 5 days as needed. She's also my best "test" client as she pays close attention to every detail and gives me very in-depth reveiws when I try something new. We're both really excited about trying the Juliettes!
