Advantages: It works
Disadvantages: It stinks, like all other removers I have tried thus far
It is not all that often these days that I will paint my nails as I always seem to be cleaning or washing up and chipping them as soon as I have painted them! I do occasionally still paint them though and so it is very important I have a nail varnish remover too for when it looks a mess and needs to be taken off.
The nail varnish remover I have currently is Tesco's own and costs a pound for a 250ml bottle which I think is reasonable.
The remover comes in a white plastic bottle with a light purple lid. The label on the bottle is also this purple shade. The back of the bottle tells us how to use the product as well as explaining that the varnish remover is extremely flammable, should be kept out of the reach of children, kept away from the eyes and not to be taken internally.
The nail varnish remover has a twist on and off lid and I would say it would be quite simple for a child to remove so I would definitely recommend that you keep it out of the way of their reach. The actual remover is a water like liquid with a light purple colour to it. As soon as you take the lid off a strong acetone smell hits you and it is really unpleasant to be honest.
To remove your nail varnish you should put some of the product on to a cotton wool pad or tissue and wipe it over your nails. I find I get the best results using cotton wool as it seems to soak up the remover better and is stronger to wipe over your nails than a tissue meaning you can usually do a few nails using just one pad.
The nail varnish remover does a good job of getting rid of my nail varnish, including a deep purple I am currently wearing. I do find I need to wipe each nail a couple of times to fully remove all the varnish though. When I have used this product what I like the most is that the smell of the remover doesn't linger on my hands and make me feel like I need to go and wash my hands with lots of lovely smelling products to get rid of the varnish smell!
I think this nail varnish is perfectly acceptable as a product although I do feel that they are all very similar in quality anyway as they are essentially all the same thing with different packaging! However, this product does the job it claims to for a reasonable price and so I have no complaints!
Thank you for reading my review!
