Best Way To Get Acrylic Nails Off At Home Without Acetone

How to Remove Acrylic Nails Fast: A Step-by-Step Guide

Materials You'll Need:

• Pure acetone
• Cotton balls
• Nail clippers
• Orangewood nail stick

Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Clip Down the Excess Acrylic Tips

Start by using a pair of nail clippers to trim down any excess length from the acrylic tips. This will make the remaining acrylic easier to remove.

2. Soak Cotton Balls in Pure Acetone

Saturate a cotton ball with 100% pure acetone. Avoid using nail polish remover containing acetone, as it may not be as effective.

3. Place the Acetone-Soaked Cotton Balls on Your Nails

Place the acetone-soaked cotton balls on top of your acrylic nails and secure them with a piece of aluminum foil or cling wrap. This will ensure that the acetone remains in contact with the acrylic.

4. Wait 10-15 Minutes

Allow the acetone to soak into the acrylic for 10-15 minutes. The time may vary depending on the thickness of your acrylic nails.

5. Remove the Acetone-Soaked Cotton Balls

Once the acrylic has softened, gently remove the acetone-soaked cotton balls.

6. Use an Orangewood Nail Stick to Remove the Loose Acrylic

Use an orangewood nail stick to gently loosen and remove the softened acrylic from your nails. Be patient and avoid using excessive force.

7. Wipe Off Any Remaining Residue

Use a cotton ball soaked in water or nail polish remover to wipe off any remaining acrylic residue.

Tips:

* Use pure acetone for best results. * Wear gloves to protect your skin from the acetone. * Avoid getting acetone on your natural nails, as it can damage them. * If your acrylic nails are extremely thick, you may need to repeat the process several times. * Be patient and gentle throughout the process to prevent damaging your natural nails.
