I would suggest looking up the product detail if you are able to. As Dez said, it might be an issue of what's in the ingredients of cheaper nail polish that isn't there in the nail polish you normally use. Also, I am not sure if they would do this because I never go to them, ask a nail technician if they can help you figure out the issue. They might recommend you use something before applying the nail polish. I totally get you wanting to swap out with your friends, that sounds like so much fun! But don't do it if it continues to give you pain and there are no solution to it.
