    Give it a minute or two, wave around to shake the drops off and then lightly feel to make sure it’s not tacky. Im pretty impatient, so sometimes I don’t wait long enough.

    I learned a lot from this set of instructions and the tips at the end. Especially capping/sealing and base coats. They’re talking about nail wraps – which I love – but I have use the same techniques with just normal color as well and had a lot more success.

    I see some people mentioned gel. I have never successfully used gel, I’m just aware there are extra steps and a light or something to cure, but if you find that the polish is taking longer than 5 minutes per coat to be dry enough to pet the kitties, then you might have a gel polish. Those really require the light to cure (if I’m understanding correctly).

    I was in a high school that received this active shooter campus wide recognition system. It included a few physical security systems to help autonomously alert if there were gun shots fired somewhere. One of the systems was these green lights inside the normal flourecent lights. They would turn red or flash or something as a visual alert. But the green light cast this weird green glow everywhere in the school and to me it was this eerie constant reminder of the threat. I was only a visitor for a special program for a few days, but even this was a little traumatizing for me. The drone would be terrifying.
