You need to be patient, and don't dig your nails into it.
When you apply it to your toe nails, wait upto half an hour ifyou are going to wear shoes, so that it doesn't get smudge. Touch your big toe nail with your finger tip and see if its dry. Otherwise wear some pretty sandals or flip flops and your good to go.
On your hands, wait upto 15 mins, or you can put your hands in front of a fan. Again check one of the nails with your finger tip. Don't start cooking, cleaning or anything messy right after as you might mess it up.
Suggestion: Paint your nails and read a magazine or a good book for a while and you wont realise that you are waiting for your nails to dry!

depends on what type of nail polish you use. Avon has new instant manicure strips. They are dry nail enamel strips, no drying time needed. They also have one called speed dry nail enamel that dries in 60 seconds. There are a couple of options for you to look in to. If you would like to know more go to www.avon.com..... and if you would like to order or get more info. you can find local representatives there as well.
good luck

It would depend upon the brand, the consistency, how pourous your nails are, the humidity in the air. I always heard though that it's good to be extra careful for at least an hour for it to have time to dry, set and harden.

It takes over 12 hours for it to completely dry properly.
