Nail polish formula is in constant motion of change. So many
textures are available in the market. The quality usually decides the power of
different recipes. The one which fails to last longer on the nails is seen as
cheap.
The others which calmly withstand all the heavy duties for days are
taken as best among all. But do nail paints expire? This has been an ongoing
debate. Most brands claim that nail paint is capable of staying perfect for
years. Well, this is true to some extent. But I will still emphasize that change in weather does have an impact on
the ingredients of the paint.
The winter season is not always good for nail polish. This is when the recipe goes through problem. The paint cream simply separates from the liquid. See the picture to understand this better. Good news is that this can be solved. All you need is the nail polish thinner.

But how should we fix the odor? Yes, certain nail paints,
after several years, begin to give off an unusual odor. In 2002, one of my
aunts gifted me a set of lollipop nail paints. No, they were not edible. Their
specialty was that they came in bottles that looked like lollipops. The colors were
blue, pink and silver. I wore them religiously for couple of years. But then my
focus went to what was new. Just a year ago, I took out those lollipop
paints. To my surprise, they were not
only gooey, but also had terribly disgusting odor. I would assume that it matched the smell of plankton
algae covered water and rotten stuff of the drain. No thinner could make me
wear them again. The odor definitely marked the end of their time in my life
for which I buried them in trash can.

Can
you stand such odor? Rejuvenation technique will be easy for you. Go for the nail polish
thinner. Otherwise, take the paint as dead forever.
