Anyone experienced this with nail art pen!

[SamLR]

I bought a couple of new nail art pens. The type is a thin long brush but also a metal dotter on the end. Anyway on sunday I had a mad 5 mins and just done any designs that come into my head. I ende dup using all different colours. Yesterday I showed my mum my new designs and to my horrible realised that all the designs with black on were STILL wet! (this was about22 hours later) so I ended up smuding all my designs (gutting!) why on earth hasnt it dried!? Could there be something wrong with the actual pen! Now need to find somewhere decent to by a new black nail art pen from

Ive put a post up about nail art pens! My problem is different..mine dry perfectly well it's just that they are watery! I hope someone can recommend a good one x

Its bizarre because its only the black one! I did a red tip with white polka dots and I thought they were going to take forever to dry being white thick blobs of white but infact the black with just thin lines have taken forever! Im guessing it must be the pen itself. Shame because it is a good black, not watery at all!

I have the rio ones from argos and like them. The only bad one is the silver sparkly one because its a bit patch. Solid colours are ace though! Xx

for me I gave up on nail art pens a while ago...never was able to get one I was happy with....now all I use are striping brushes and dotting tools with my good ol' regular nail polish

Yes they are the ones I'm getting.. I like them because there's no brushes to clean so that saves time

Do they dry quickly? The black I had just never dried! Was very odd!
