ella+mila Jojoba Nail Polish Remover Non-Acetone Non-Toxic Fingernail Polish Remover - Enriched With Jojoba oil & Vitamins (4 fl oz)

Kind to nails oily varnish remover

I really like this polish remover. It doesn't have an odor and it takes off color street smoothly without leaving the sticky residue that is often present with regular nail polish. It definitely at first doesn't seem to be taking it off but then it miraculously swipes it off.

It really does get the job done and I like the way my nails feel afterward, but it takes a bit longer to get polish off. It's also pricey, but overall I think it's a sound purchase. It is an oil remover, so be mindful that it's going to be really greasy. You probably should wait a bit after taking your polish off for it to absorb before trying to put on new polish. For impatient people like me, that's the biggest drawback. However, the benefits seem to outweigh the drawbacks here and I'd rather have healthier nails than a shorter wait time on getting them done.

I thought I would give this a try because normal nail polish remover is just so harsh and the smell is so strong. But this doesn't work at all, I don't know what people are talking about in the reviews. I only had a base and clear coat on my nails as I just had my acrylics removed, and it couldn't even take that off. I did 3 different passes with this remover on them and it was still there, on every single nail. Sure, it doesn't smell and it has cuticle oil in it, but it simply does not work. For the price compared to normal nail polish remover that you can get at the dollar store, there is no point in buying this, unless you'd like to spend half your day trying to remove your polish and use half the bottle on one coat. Pass on this.

It works. It does have a smell and does dehydrate if you leave it on your nail too long. I hadn't used nail polish or polish remover in over ten years. I only tried nail polish on my left hand, and used my right to remove it. In that short while, my right thumb nail ended like this (photo attached), it was very dehydrated so use gloves. It is oil like and works well. The nails on my left hand (had nail polish) do have slight dehydration as well. I also removed nail polish from my toes that had been on for about 3 weeks. I had used Olive and June semi clear (just sparkle) double coat polish on and the nail polish remover also dehydrated my toe nails. This normally happens when the nail polish wasn't dried all the way before removing or if it was oil based and left too long according to chat gpt.. but my toes still experienced the same thing. They were completely dried (half was now only painted, nail grew) and I believed the removal process was quick. Still, they look dehydrated and mat. Some even have white lines or spots. Make sure you have oils to rehydrate after use.

It has a pleasant faint smell. It’s a very nice polish remover, but you need to be patient. It takes a little effort.
