Drying Oil
Love this and the best feature is you drop the oil on nail, you do not paint it on. When you use one you paint on the color always gets in the bottle. Easy to use.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I apply Accelerating Drying Oil?
Apply Accelerating Drying Oil with the dropper, squeezing one to two drops at the base of each nail while the final layer of polish is still wet. Rather than painting it on like a top coat, it's designed to be dropped on and left to spread on its own.
- Use the dropper to apply one to two drops per nail.
- Apply to the base of the nail, not brushed across the whole surface.
- Relax your fingers and hold them downward, letting gravity spread the oil naturally over the nail.
- Avoid painting or brushing it on, since that isn't how the formula is designed to be used.
This drop-and-go method is part of what makes it faster to use than a traditional top coat.
How long does it take for a manicure to dry with Accelerating Drying Oil?
Accelerating Drying Oil is formulated to noticeably cut down post-polish wait time, so nails set and seal faster than they would on their own. Since drying time still depends on how many coats were applied and how thick each layer is, it works best as a way to shorten the wait, not guarantee an exact number of minutes.
- Fewer, thinner coats dry faster, even with the oil applied.
- Apply promptly while the final layer is still wet, rather than waiting until it's partially set.
- Handle nails gently for the first few minutes after application, since faster isn't the same as instant.
How is Accelerating Drying Oil different from a Flash Dry Top Coat?
Accelerating Drying Oil is dropped on, not painted on, and it's designed to work with an existing top coat rather than replace one. Flash Dry Top Coat is its own sealing layer applied with a brush, while this oil is an add-on step that speeds up whatever is already on the nail.
- Accelerating Drying Oil: applied with a dropper, adds hydration and shine, works over top coat or one-step treatments.
- Flash Dry Top Coat: applied with a brush, forms its own protective seal, and is a required step rather than an add-on.
Because it's a drop, not a coat, it's a fast, low-effort way to cut drying time without changing the rest of the manicure routine.
Can I use Accelerating Drying Oil with other LONDONTOWN treatments?
Yes, Accelerating Drying Oil is designed to pair with lakur, top coats, and one-step polishes like Illuminating Nail Concealer and Perfecting Nail Veil. The one notable exception is Matte Top Coat, which is formulated to dry with the Flash Dry Nail Fan instead, since Accelerating Drying Oil isn't recommended for that particular finish.
- Pairs well with Gel Genius Top Coat and High Gloss Top Coat, both of which recommend it for faster set time.
- Also works over Illuminating Nail Concealer or Perfecting Nail Veil.
- Not recommended with Matte Top Coat, which has its own drying method.
Outside of that one exception, it's built to slot into most manicure routines as a final, fast-drying step.
Does Accelerating Drying Oil do anything besides speed up dry time?
Accelerating Drying Oil is formulated to nourish nails and cuticles at the same time it speeds up drying. The botanical oil blend adds a layer of hydration and shine with each use, so the payoff isn't just a faster manicure, it's a more finished-looking one too.
- Adds shine to the finished manicure, beyond what polish alone provides.
- Nourishes nails and cuticles, thanks to the botanical oil blend layered into the formula.
- Doubles as a finishing touch, not just a drying aid.
This dual role is why it's positioned as a step that improves the manicure, not just a shortcut to skip waiting around.
Who is Accelerating Drying Oil best for?
Accelerating Drying Oil is best for anyone who's pressed for time, prone to smudging fresh polish, or wants an extra layer of hydration built into their routine. It's a fit for both everyday manicures and any moment where waiting around for nails to dry isn't an option.
- Busy routines, where waiting for a full dry isn't realistic.
- Anyone prone to smudges, nicks, or dents in the first few minutes after painting.
- Manicure and pedicure use alike, since it's formulated for all nail types.
For anyone who's ruined a fresh manicure reaching for their bag five minutes too soon, this is built to close that window.
