Review (5/5): BYE BYE NAIL POLISH!
There are many products for nail remover out there that claim not to be harmful, help your nails, etc. It was with skepticism that I tried Pure Body Natural's 100% Natural Nail Polish Remover. I was intrigued to be able to possibly use a nail polish remover that would be 100% biodegradable with no harsh chemicals (that actually cause more harm to your nails than good). I recently had had my nails done with Shellac (which I have had done in the past). However, whatever product this particular place used caused my nails to split, crack, and peel. When the Shellac polish was finally removed, my nails were dull and in very poor condition. I put a coat of nail polish on them to try and 'protect' them somewhat. When I received my Pure Body Naturals Nail Polish Remover, I was excited to try it and see, if a natural product, would really work and be able to be an efficient nail polish remover. I used the dropper that is included and followed the instructions of placing a few drops on each nail and allowing to sit for a short time. The instructions state the polish will begin to 'bubble' up. When I checked my nails, not quite four to five minutes later, it still was not 'bubbled' up. It actually appeared like one just placed a few drops of oil on them - they were shiny and all the polish still looked intact. My initial thought was, "see another product claiming to work this isn't going to work". I took my cotton pad and wiped over one nail just to see if anything would happen and to my amazement, the nail polish all removed! With just one swipe, my nail polish was gone (unlike those acetone products I have tried in which I have had to scrub, get more, scrub again). I used the corner of my cotton pad and ran it along my cuticle and the little bit of color that had stained my cuticle was gone. My nails were left clean. Not only were my nails clean, but they were also shiny. I feel like using this natural product will help repair the damage the previous Shellac polish reeked on my nail bed. I also noticed after using the Pure Body polish remover that my cuticles were easier to 'groom'. I am so glad that I decided to try Pure Body Naturals 100% Natural Nail Polish Remover. To have a product that lives up to its claim of doing exactly what it states it will and to also be 100% Bio degradable makes me feel good about my nails and the environment. If you haven't tried this product, you really need to. It comes in a 4oz bottle and with only needing a drop or two on each nail, this product is going to last me quite a long time. #gotitdiscounted
