Can nail polish be used if it is expired? What should I do if nail polish does not dry?

Nail polish is an indispensable tool when we do manicures, but the nail polish we bought is found to be expired after just a few uses, and it would be a pity to throw it away. So can the expired nail polish be used again?

No, you cannot use expired nail polish. First, the liquid inside expired nail polish has deteriorated, and applying it will have a bad effect on the health of your nails. Second, expired nail polish will dry out and many dings will appear. Forcibly using it in time will also have a very bad effect on the manicure. Therefore, it is recommended that you do not use expired nail polish directly.

If the nail polish is not dried properly after being exposed to the light for too short a time, the problem can be solved by replacing the lamp tube in time or extending the exposure time. If the nail polish is applied too thickly at one time, the nail polish will not dry properly and may shrink. Therefore, apply a small amount of nail polish at one time and do not apply it too thickly at once.

You can use alcohol cotton pads to wipe off the glue. If the alcohol cotton pads don't work, you can use the second method, prepare a basin of water, dissolve a little soap, and then put your hands stained with glue into the basin and soak for a while.

First, apply a thin layer of makeup remover on the nail tips; wait for about 3-5 minutes, then use a hard object to file directly, or use a nail file directly, and the nail tips can be removed. Nail polish has a corrosive effect on the nail tips and can break down the tightness of the nail tips, so if there is no degumming agent, you can use makeup remover to remove the nail tips.
