Ways to store nail polish
We all make the mistake of storing our nail polish in our bathrooms. This is actually one of the worst places to store your nail polish, as it needs to be stored in a cool, dry place. Make sure to keep it away from sunlight and at a normal room temperature. Humid temperatures like in your bathroom cause the oils to collect on the top of the polish layer. One of the places you can store is perhaps your bedroom. It’s also important to keep your nail polish standing upright and organized neatly. When applying your nail polish, make sure to warm it up with the warmth of your hands.
How to store nail polish remover
Make sure you again store your nail polish remover away from sunlight and in a cool place as well as standing upright. If you’re wondering how to store sundays soy polish remover, we recommend the same approach.
How to keep nail polish from drying out
Again the first step to preventing your nail polish from drying out is to keep it in a cool, dark area. Also make sure that the cap is screwed on tightly, so no air is coming in. When applying your nail polish, make sure that you close the bottle after doing each hand and waiting for your mani to dry. While you wait for it to dry, take a minute to screw the cap on.
Additionally, once a week, you can take a minute to warm up the polish bottle between your hands, in a rubbing motion. Also, take some nail polish remover and clean up the residual polish that collects around the nail polish neck.
How to store cuticle oil and quick-dry oil
When it comes to sundays cuticle oils and quick-dry oil, we recommend to again store them in a cool, dry place. Also make sure that you replace the dropper with the cap provided when storing, because the dropper allows for air to enter, causing the formula to evaporate.
