On the package it says to add 2-3 drops. I added 5 times 3 drops because it didn't work, that makes 15!! The lacquer wasn't very thick or old either so I gave up, but I was very frustrated because it costs me 14 euro's (ridiculous!!) to get this one and I had high expectations because it was from OPI.<br /><br />Couple of days later I bought MAVALA thinner in the Douglas Store, this one works better. I think because it's more concentrated, but I don't know because both packages don't say how much % of every ingredient. The package also says 2-3 drops and it did work after 2-3 drops.<br /><br />Beside this, after a week or two the polish is as thick as before, so you keep adding this stuff to a bottle of lacquer. I am wondering if that would harm the color or the quality.<br /><br />However, I love this kind of product too. Especially in Holland. Polishes dry out/thicken very soon in this kind of climate. And I clean a bottle after every use.Ninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04931360989511954857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8453635140925491261.post-59259421436281100562010-08-14T21:01:57.808+02:002010-08-14T21:01:57.808+02:00Thank you so much for writing about this!
