How to remove glitter nailpolish

I've done a few nail art tutorials where I used a glitter nail polish. Some glitter nail polishes are extremely hard to remove. In this picture you see the Christmas party nail art, click here for the tutorial: http://www.memorable-days.net/2010/12/christmas-party-nail-art-tutorial.html.

I found a video on Youtube where it's explained how to remove the glitter nail polish on an easy way. Two methods are explained in this video:

1.) The first method is to use a piece of felt. Put some nail polish remover on it, press the piece of felt against your nail for 5-10 seconds and rub the nail polish off. Then repeat the rest of the fingers.

2.) The second method is to use foil and cotton pads. Soak some nail polish remover on the cotton pads. Put it against your nails. Wrap the foil over it and leave it for 4-5 minutes.

I tried both methods before and both worked. However, I don't prefer the second method, because it will dry out your skin. Besides, you will waste lots of cotton pads when you use this method. Therefore, I recommend the first method.

Which method do you use to remove glitter nail polish?

  1. Ik gebruik de tweede methode, ik knip mijn watjes in 2 zodat ik er niet zoveel gebruik & ik gebruik veel minder zilverpapier dan in het filmpje;)

  2. Ze werken allebei =) Maar vind het zelf prettiger om de eerste methode te gebruiken. Door de 2e methode worden me vingers heel erg droog van =/

  3. Ik heb ook geen vilt thuis.
    Ik gebruik daarna ook dadelijk Lemony flutter, ik weet dat het spijtig genoeg slecht is voor je nagels en nagelriemen:(
