There's nothing worse than painting your nails at home and having them ruin just minutes later because they weren't fully dry.
That's one of the mains reasons I head to the nail salon each week for a manicure. Even though I sometimes get restless sitting in the chair while waiting for them to dry, it's much better than having bumpy or smudged nails.
But, after watching this trick below, I might start polishing my nails at home a little more often. It might even encourage me to finally try some neat DIY nail art like water spotted nails or galaxy-inspired ones!
In the video below, beauty and lifestyle vlogger Ellie Kodia — better known to fans as Ellko — demonstrates how to dry nails just by using a bowl of ice water. Seriously, all you need is a bowl of ice water!
Simply dip your polished nails in the bowl, and they will quickly become hardened. (This easy technique is perfect to try with some of these eye-catching colors!)
While Ellie kept her nails dipped for three minutes (and became pretty cold in the process), others suggest that even just a minute will do.
Watch for yourself below and let us know if you'll also be trying this technique.
