Hot Nail Varnish Tips
Avoid nail polish from bubbling by ensuring it is not too thick before application, and do not apply it thickly or to quickly. This is because nail colours bubble when the solvents are unable to escape from the polish. Also the reason why we should never use nail varnish remover to thin nail varnishes.
All nail lacquer tends to thicken in warm weather, because they are often displayed on walls and on windows in hot busy salons, which make them troublesome to apply. It is good practice to keep the tray in the fridge overnight to prolong varnish use.
Nail plate preparation is vital always squeak clean before application. Ensure they are dry, oil free and no dust before applying varnish. A pH balancer will restore the nails pH level and remove surplus grease or oils.
Lacquer bottles and the brush should be kept free of product build - up. Avoid cotton wool during nail treatments - as most cotton wools have nylon threads that stick to the varnish. We can restore nail varnishes with 3-6 drops of nail lacquer thinner. The best nail restorers' consist of ethyl and butyl acetate.
