Add a few drops of acetone to your nail polish bottle and shake well. If acetone is unavailable, use nail polish thinner as a specialized option. Avoid using other household solvents, as they can ruin the polish's quality. Start with only a small amount to avoid over-thinning and test by applying to a nail. If more is needed, add a bit more in small increments and shake well each time.
