Never. Ever. Ever use polish remover to thin polish!!!

 

[lochnessie]

I am a nail polish novice. How does one go about thinning Nail polish?

I second what Christa said, and to add to her comment... whatever you do, don't add acetone or nail polish remover! It does bad things to your polish!

 

[meaganola]

And NEVER EVER use nail polish remover. Especially with glitters. People will tell you that they do it all the time and don't have any problems, but it will ruin this stuff. If you're buying indies, treat them right!

ETA: Heh. We have very definite feelings about using removers as thinners around here!

I use restore by seche to thin my nailpolishes - you can find it at ulta

 

[dressupthedog]

Seche restore will work as well, but if you try to only use 3 free polishes, keep in mind that it does contain toluene. That said, I do use Seche myself. I will be going another route soon though because I can't take the shrinkage.

So, I'm thinking maybe I shouldn't just pour in some acetone? Right? You guys are awesome! I am off to buy some thinner and glad I asked before I messed up an old thick favorite bottle.

There are entirely too many people out there that will actually recommend doing that and when I hear it I cry inside. I also use my thinner on a cotton ball to clean the outside I my bottle's neck. If polish builds up it can cause a gap in the seal and polish dries up faster. Especially glittery ones. My Zoyas build up too. I spend HOURS on my stash cleaning bottles an thinning polish every week. I like to keep them in top shape.

I know Zoya Renew is a thinner specifically designed for 3-free/4-free polishes. Does anyone know of or recommend any others? Or have good experience with Zoya Renew?

ETA: For the record, my Ichigo was super goopy and hard to work with too.

I have been meaning to look into theirs.  I started using the Zoya Remove and I am hooked.  I am guessing the thinner is probably just as awesome.

The two rainbow honey minis I have were very thick and became stringy before I finished one mani, and the glitters settled to the bottom right away. I loved the final look, but it was way, way too much work. I don't plan on buying more RH.

Edit: Petit Four and Neon Blossom.

There are no pictures yet, but they do have descriptions. It sounds like they could be really awesome.

Has anyone gotten a shipping notification? This is my first month subscribing, so I don't know when they usually start shipping.

I haven't gotten one yet, but they did charge my card the other day. They usually ship out within the first couple of days in the month.

I looked back and they've shipped the 3rd and 4th so its coming. I'm hoping they ship before the holiday.

 I have had good results with Orly's thinner, which I bought at Sallys. 

 

[SOSRedAlertSOS]

I really hope shipping happens soon! This is my first month and I am so excited!

There is a beauty secrets version that you get at Sally's. I haven't had any issues with it but I've heard it turns glitters in some polish so just be aware. I'll probably switch to the Orly soon. The Zoya stuff is really expensive.

Just got shipping! Check your email! My bag should arrive fairly quickly considering I'm only a few hours drive from their location in NJ.

Yay, shipping notice for me, too. If they actually get in the mail today, I might have mine Saturday.
