Clumpy Nail Polish
Clumpy Nail Polish Problem: I've never gotten to the bottom of a nail polish bottle, so my nail polish collection just keeps growing over the years. The only time I throw a bottle away is when it becomes clumpy and coagulated, making it impossible to smoothly lacquer over my nails.

Solution: Nail Polish Thinner/Remover

The next time your favorite nail polish goes all cottage cheese on you, try adding nail polish thinner. You can pick it up at Sally Beauty Supply for $4.29.

The quick fix? Add in a little nail polish remover. Keep in mind that the high water content of the remover will cause polish to separate over a long period of time, but if you're planning on tossing it soon anyway, it's a good temporary solution.
