How to thicken lacquer (self.lemmylaqueristas)

Hey all,

I have a couple OPI Nail Lacquers and love some of them. The black and purple ones are great, but the light blue and white are kind of not great.

Both of them are very thin and watery and when they're ready to be removed, they can be peeled off in one piece rather than flaking like the black and purple do. Even when they've dried on my nails, they have a different feel to them. I've tried having them in open air, but even after 45 minutes, nothing happened and it was just as thin.

I'm sure I'm doing something wrong, I just can't figure out what.

I'm not an expert by any means but when I've needed to thicken polishes in the past I've left them out for a while and have a fan going to help accelerate the process.

I followed the orly tutorial found here https://orlybeauty.com/blogs/news/how-to-thicken-nail-polish-for-stamping

Hopefully this helps!
