I have "Go Ahead and Dry Me" by Sephora. You just spray it on your nails, and it dries them within 30 seconds! It was only like $8.00 and I think it works better than ice water etc.
Using a fast drying top coat, combinied with OPIs Drip Dry quick drying drops does the job. It really takes hours for your nail polish to dry all the way through, but this at least gets them surface dry so you can function.
This sounds like an odd trick.. But, when your finished painting them spray PAM cooking spray on them and wait about 1-2 minutes. Then they should be bone dry! Wash your hands then, but don't scrub too hard!;)

A hair dryer is very bad to dry your nails with. The heat separates the polish, even on the cool setting. It's not cool enough.
