Put them in cold water for alittle! Also if it's thin nail polish you can take cooking spray and just spray a little on each finger it really works!

Do a thin coat and let it dry completely before doing another coat of polish. If it's thin, each coat shouldn't take more than 15 minutes to completely dry. This works better than doing three coats at one time and then waiting for them dry all together.
Carve out an hour of your time to do your nails and and make sure you don't do anything else in that time (eat, move around to much, do your hair or makeup, etc.) Those are easy ways to mess up a fresh mani.
This is how I do my nails (I use OPI and occasionally Essie) and it works like a charm.
