How do I speed up nail varnish drying time?
I have Barry M nail varnish, and it dries relatively quickly, but not completely for like the next hour or so. I always end up smudging it with my fingers because I think it's dried but it's not. Any tips?

After about 10 mins place your nails under cold running water for a minute or so - usually works for me.
the problem that i have with nail varnish is that i get impatient and i touch the nail varnish to see if its dried and it just smudges everywhere. you could try holding your nails in front of a fan/hairdryer or waft your hands about. blow on them. to pass the hour it takes to dry, you could lay out in the sun and just sit there and maybe get a tan along with beaut nails? :) patience is the key however.
i use seche vite top coat and it's seriously the best one out there, i believe. it dries in a couple of minutes and you can touch it without it leaving fingerprints. damage will only be done if you scrape it against something.
Okay this is an excellent tip for drying nail varnish as it works for all types.
Before you do your nails in the sink run some cold water until it si relatively full.
Then do your nails as you wish.
Let them dry for 30 seconds, shake your hands if you want to.
Then place your hands in the cold water in the sink for 1 minute, after the minute swish your hands around in the water for a bit.
Voila! Dry nails! If you are doing this on toenails, use the same technique just use the bath instead.
Make sure the tap is off when your put your hands in though because the force of the running water will smudge it. And you might need to leave your hands in the water a little longer, or a shorter amount of time, depending on how thick the varnish is.
Nails inc do a top coat which dries the nail in about 45 seconds its great.
The one i have is called "Nails Inc - Kensington Caviar Topcoat".
Maybe try not put the nail varnish on so thick, if you are that is, so paint a thin layer on all your nails, then go back and put another thin layer on top.
Get quick dryong one or use nail varnish dryer, hope this helped!
