How can i make nail polish dry more quickly?

any tips? my nail polish always takes so much time to dry.How can i make nail polish dry more quickly?
-Buy special speed-dry polish. They look exactly the same as normal polish.


-Shake your hands


-Even blow-dry them if you REALLY want it fast


-Skip actually blowing on them yourself, the moisture in your breath could actually slow down the process


-Some kits have mini blow-dryer like things where you press your finger down and warm air dries themHow can i make nail polish dry more quickly?
using speed dry nail polish is bad for the nails, and they chip very easily

I know at CVS or any drug store they have nailpolishes that dry in like one minute! I love those kind cuz im always in a rush. I think its by Loreal Paris.... i dunno
don't they sell like little nail dryers or something -- thought I saw something like that at Wal Mart -- brb -- HoMedics Style Spa Deluxe Professional Manicure %26amp; Pedicure System ...A convenient built-in nail dryer helps make manicures quick and smudge-free. ...

Run under cold water


Blow dry
stick your fingers in a small bowl of ice cold water


or put them in front of a fan
blow dry, fan
keep it at cool place
They make quick dry top coat which is awesome. I did nails for several years and that was what did it. Spray,blow dryers, and so on help but that top coat sealed the deal. I have some at my site you can check out or try OPI...
I use a blow dryer on cold and low power. Certain types of nail polish are also made specifically to dry quickly so you could look into those.
You can get this stuff in an aerosal can at walmart. You just spray it on your nails and it dries it. Or you can use a nail polish that has a quick dry in it.
Use speed set top coat. It is an advanced formula that dries nail enamel to a hard finish in minutes.
u can buy a spray from boots or somewhere
use one that tells you it dries fast. they contail oil to help dry faster
what u do is dont overlap the polish when ur putting it on.after u put it on put it by cool air
there is a product by O.P.I called quick dry or something........it's simply a spray and definitely speeds up the drying time......i love it...the cold water method doesn't really work and the hair dryer thing does as long as you keep it at least a few inches away from the nails..otherwise it's move the polish..hope this helps =)
two words---blow dryer
Nail polish actually takes a full 24 hours to dry fully and all the way, but you can speed up the process by putting your nails in cold water, don't use a blow dryer if it blows hot air, that actually makes the polish stickier. You can use a small table fan as well. A clear over coat usually helps as well. For best results paint in thin layers about 30 minutes apart. If you don't have much time, they sell quick dry spray at most beauty shops, be sure to only spray a little bit on each nail, it makes your fingers numb if you spray too much.
there is no other way. if you blow on it with anything you'll mess it up, because you are adding air bubbles and your nails wont really look good. just be patient and wait. another way is try buying the nailpolish that takes seconds to dry. they work well and they're really ceap.
nail polish usually takes atleast 30 minutes to fully dry. try putting on 2 really thin coats. it generally dries faster that way
cold water.
used a good quality of nail polish
Let it dry a few seconds, then put your fingers under cold running water to where the palms are getting the direct running water, and the cold water is touching the nails,just not directly on the wet polish,for about a minute, then let them ';air'; dry-no towel. I used this for many years while I worked as a cosmetologist!
I have a nail drying machine. You can get 1 at walmart for like 10 - 15.00. otherwise you can use your blowdryer on cool setting.
i use a blow dryer or run my nails under some cold water
blow dry it
put your hands for a few minutes in your freezer. it works quickly.
Some salons use a spray to speed up the drying process in addition to a nail drying machine, but I have used the spray by itself.
blow dryer or fan. you can also buy fast drying nail polish
use it apsinst the fan
run under cold water.





but DO NOT use a hair dryer. unless u have a cold air setting... the heat will probably make it melt. its happened to me before and its a mess to clean up.
You can blow on your nails or there are things you can buy that will dry them quickly
