How do I make the nail polish dry without my clients messing it up before they leave?

I would suggest a spray-on or drip-on speed drying product. Also, don’t put the nails under the dryer too soon or you’ll wind up with “skinning,” the fast drying of the top layer while the underneath is still wet. — Paul Bryson is director of research and development at OPI.

To dry nails quickly, I use a Fast Dry Top Coat from Seche. I find it dries fast and stays for a long time. — Wilson Vien is product manager at La Rose Nail Spa in San Rafael, Calif.
