How can I make my nail polish not thick and sticky and chunky?

My nail polish gets really chunky after a while. It is hard to apply to my nails. What can I do?How can I make my nail polish not thick and sticky and chunky?
add a little bit of acetone in your nail polish and shake it before use.How can I make my nail polish not thick and sticky and chunky?
that means its either cheap or old and time to get rid of it.
depending how think it is.. there are polish thinners that you can add to it, or it might just be time to toss it and get some quality ones. Spending a bit more for brands like OPI, Orly etc. you get your moneys worth- they last longer than the cheaper brands. Remember you get what you pay for.
Buy good quality polish for one thing. Don't leave the brush out for too long of a time. Use it and then replace it as soon as you are done. Also, by applying a thin layer of vaseline to the threads on the bottle of polish you will not only prevent it from sticking from any dried polish, it also forms a seal which helps prevent air from entering the bottle and making it thicken before its time. Always seal the bottles tightly.


Almost all polish will thicken over time, but if that happens, you can buy polish thinner at beauty supply stores such as Sally Beauty. Use only one or two drops, and shake well. It is suggested that you only thin the polish one time. If it thickens up again, then discard the bottle. Do not use polish remover to thin nail polish. It tends to dull the shine of the polish. Use only a polish thinner if anything at all. Personally, I just throw them away after they start to thicken. Also, store them in a cool, dark location. Some will tell you to store it in the refrigerator, but this is not a good idea as it causes problems with the polish. Just keep it out of the sun, and away from any heat source and you'll be fine.


I hope this helps!
Just add some nail polish remover. Not too much and shake. This will not work on really old nail polish though. In this case buy new polish.
That has happened to me before, and what I do to fix that problem is that I pour a little bit of nail polish remover into the nail polish bottle to make it smooth again. You should give it a try. It works!
Put a few drops of Methylated Spirits into the bottle and give it a really good shake.





Sometimes nail polish just goes bad and you need to buy a new one.
i think that just happens if the lid isnt on tight enough. make sure its on good. and of course buy good quality polish.
Start with a good quality nail polish like the premier color collection of Kolibre Cosmetics. Roll the bottle in your palms just prior to opening, don't shake. This will prevent tiny air bubbles from being created inside that cause polish to become gooey. Keep the cap on tightly, when not in use. And store in a cool dark location like the door of your refrigerator. Contrary to other opinions, the coolness DOES slow down the deterioration of paint products.
