  2. I have been doing this trick for quite some time - I love it! I used to hate glitter nail polish because it was next to impossible to remove but this makes it so easy.

    1. It's the best! Have you tried soaking the cotton ball and just letting it sit on your fingernail for a while? I hear that works too, but it seems like it might drip all over the place. The good thing about the foil method is that it keeps the liquid inside!

  8. Onyx is made for glitter removal, pure acetone. Comes off in seconds with this brand.

    1. Pure acetone damages my nails, but if you have strong nails to start off with that sounds like a great option!

  10. Glitter polish is hard to remove. My hair dresser shared your tip with me and it does work. It also works well with the Sally Hansen nail shields.

    Thanks for stopping by my blog. I love finding new blogs!

  11. Great tips! I know I've definitely wasted too much cotton and remover to take those sticky little glitter bits off in days past. Thanks for sharing and for visiting my blog.

  19. Seriously awesome and genius. I spent a few days ago trying to get glitter from nails after my niece painted my nails with 3 types of glitter polish. Thanks for the tip, and this is my first time to your blog.

  20. Wish I had seen this last week :-) I scrubbed at my toes forever!

  21. This is also how you remove gel nail polish. Works wonders but I never thought of it to remove glitter polish!

  25. This method totally works! But if you want an even easier way to get glitter nail polish off, I recently found peel off base coat from a brand here in Korea, where I'm currently living. It's so so good, been wearing different glitter manicures almost every day since! :)

    I decided to offer it in my blog shop if you want to check it out, it's only $6.

    Great tutorial though, this method really helps! :)

  26. Another good way is to make your nailpilish remover warm by running it under hot water. This activates all the ingredients wuxh makes it work better. This way is awesome too though!
