So everytime I buy a nail polish, it's okay for few weeks and then it becomes really thick and doesn't dry on my nails. :(

Make sure that you close it all the way, if it gets air it will become thick :)

Well hello, of course I close it properly. Still they get thick and stuff.

Sometimes polish can get on edge of the glass and even that little can make it hard to close so no air get in!
I have never had a polish that got thick that fast, what brand do you use?

If that happens try putting a bit of acetone until the nail Polish gets the consistency you want.

Maybe get a better polish? Never heard of it happening that quick. You can put a little nail polish remover in it to get it back to it's original form, just be careful not to put too much, and shake it in real well so you know before adding more if needed.

I know what you mean, this happens to me but more often with polish that is matte or neon. A lot of those bright colors dry with a semi matte effect and tend to dry fast.. Nail polish remover here and there keeps it fresh.

Take Gaby's advice. Only a few drops at a time, though!

Don't put acetone in! use nail polish thinner instead, and it could be the brand you have, I buy china glaze, essie and opi and I've never had a problem!

This happens to be often. I have duplicates of lots of nail polishes because of this. few drops of nail polish thinner should do the trick I noticed with acetone it kind of messes it up.

Okay I guess I have to buy this nail polish thinner. because adding acetone is wrong, it will mess up the polish
