Removing nail paint without remover might seem like an impossible task, but don’t worry, we have you covered. You just need to follow these simple tricks that’ll take off your nail polish quickly and easily! Here are our top 6 hacks
Ice Cube Trick
In a container, add an ice cube and then enough water to cover the ice. Place your fingers in the cold water and soak for 10-15 minutes. Rub off any residual nail polish that might be left on your nails with a cotton ball soaked in nail polish remover. The ice will help shrink the blood vessels and reduce bleeding at the cuticle area. Try this hack if you want to avoid getting messy with nail polish remover!
Baking Soda Hack
If you’re short on cash, you can use a tablespoon of baking soda to remove nail polish from your nails. Simply wet your nail and dip it in the baking soda for about five seconds. Rinse with water and pat dry with a towel to get rid of the powdery residue. You can also use lemon juice instead of water if you’d like! It does require quite a bit more elbow grease, but it will be less drying for your nails as opposed to using acetone or other solvents.
Lemon And Baby Oil
The DIY hack to remove your nail polish is simple: Squeeze one or two lemons into a small bowl and fill the bowl with hot water. Place your hands in the bowl, moving them around until you feel like they are soft enough. After ten minutes, take a paper towel and rub your nails to remove any traces of nail polish.
Petroleum Jelly
If you don’t have nail polish remover on hand, this hack should help save the day. Use a small amount of petroleum jelly to remove any residual nail polish on your skin or nails. Simply rub the jelly on top of the remaining polish and it should wipe away without too much effort!
Egg Whites
The most effective home remedy for removing nail polish is egg whites. Separate the egg white from the yolk, and put them in a bowl. Pour some of the nail polish remover into it. Mix it well until you have a creamy, consistent mixture. Apply this mixture to your nails and wait five minutes or so before removing the nail polish with a cotton ball soaked in nail polish removers and then apply hand lotion to your nails to moisturize them afterwards.
Denture Tablets Section: Mayonnaise
Apply the mayonnaise onto your nails and wait for 20 minutes. Scrub off the mayonnaise with a scrubber or hard sponge. Rinse the nails with warm water and dry them up. And, voila! You are ready to adorn a new nail polish on your nails again!
