Nail polish dries faster - that's how it works

There are so many alleged insider tips about how nail polish should dry faster. Ice cubes, hot blow dry, cold water and, and. Not only did I try them all out and they all do not work! But what really works, I tell you here.

Nail polish faster dry, it really works!

For one thing, your nail polish should be cool. I just put the nail polish that I want to use in the fridge for a few hours.

But now it comes:


In the relevant drugstores you can buy for 2-3 euros per vial so-called quick-drying drops. I once pictured the P2 and Essence, both very cheap brands. These drops I use immediately without waiting when I finished painting. The manufacturer promises that the nail polish should be dry within 60 seconds. I would say, after 2-3 minutes the paint is really dried out. Of course, it always depends on the humidity, the room temperature, etc.

The application can be seen in the photo: Just apply one or more drops to the nail plate. I always do that over the sink, because some of the liquid drips down quickly.

By the way, one of the ingredients is almond oil or, at P2, rice oil. The excess drops so just rub in well and the cuticle is beautifully maintained.

Incidentally, I do not apply the dripping drops to the individual layers because, in my opinion, the contained oil would impair the durability of the next layer of varnish. But for the last layer of varnish, which is the overcoat for me, the drops are super-good.

Luckily, you do not have to invest too much!
