You Must Try This DIY Natural Nail Polish Remover

Who would have thought that you would only need a few household items to make a DIY natural nail polish remover? It doesn’t cost too much, plus it’s also safe for your nails since you’ll be using 100% organic ingredients. It looks like lemons aren’t just for yummy desserts and healthy drinks!

I love trying out all kinds of nail polish shades and experimenting with different nail art! However, a week or so later, I would start worrying so much about using acetone on chipped nail polish. Exposing my nails to harsh chemicals will make it weak, resulting to cracked nails. With this natural mixture, I not only can I keep my nails strong; I also don’t have to spend a lot!

What you’ll need for this DIY natural nail polish remover:

• Lemons
• Vinegar
• Bowl
• Cotton pads

Step 1: Squeeze Them Good

Apparently, the chemicals in nail polishes don’t hold up well against acidic components. This is why the two main ingredients in this mixture both have acidic qualities.

Start off by squeezing lemons to get the juice. Use a juicer to get every single drop. Put the lemon juice in a bowl.

If you don’t have lemons readily available, you can use oranges or any citrus food as a substitute.

Step 2: Double Shot Of Acid

Now that you have your lemon juice, add in an equal amount of vinegar to enhance the acid better. Mix them all up.

Step 3: Soak Them Well

Get a couple of cotton pads or balls and soak that in the natural nail polish remover. In the meantime, you should soak your hands and nails in warm water for about 10 to 15 minutes to soften the polish. If you wish, you can soak your fingers in up to 30 minutes.

Step 4: Rub It Off

Wrap your nails in the solution soaked cotton pads or balls for 20-30 seconds. Don’t worry about the smell. While you may have to be wary of the acidic vinegar smell, the sweet scent of the lemon will mellow it down.

After leaving it on for about half a minute, start rubbing the polish off using your soaked cotton.  After a few rubs, you’ll notice your nails getting clearer.

Later on, wipe on some cuticle oil to strengthen your nails. Added tip, try to give your nails a few weeks to breathe before trying out another nail art.
