If you’ve ever tried to take off glitter nail polish, then you know how real the struggle is! It sticks to everything—your nails, your clothes, even your furniture. Don’t panic, though! The professionals at Grace & Glamour are here to help you with some very simple and mess-free ways of taking off glitter nail polish. Let’s get started then—glitter on or off, who cares!
- Foil Method – The Secret of Taking Away the Glitter!
The foil method is the secret to using for taking away glitter nail polish without rubbing it off forever. Do the following:
✅ Dip a cotton ball or pad in nail polish remover.
✅ Place the wet cotton ball on your nail.
✅ Place a small piece of aluminium foil and wrap your finger around to secure.
✅ Apply it to all your nails and leave on for 10-15 minutes.
✅ Take off the foil, then scrape off the polish with an orange stick or cuticle pusher.
The foil protects the nail underneath from getting scraped away too much when the glitter breaks down. Bye-bye, long scraping hours!
- Peel-Off Base Coat – The Genius Hack
If you hate taking off glitter nails but adore them, try it with a peel-off base coat applied first under your polish.
✅ Put a peel-off base coat underneath your glitter nail polish first.
✅ Dry your nails and use it normally.
✅ To take off the polish, peel off the side of the polish with an orange stick or cuticle pusher.
✅ Just peel the whole shebang off in one—it’s heaven!
It’s an effort- and time-saver and also protects your nails from damage.
- Glitter Nail Polish Remover – Made Specifically for the Task!
If you don’t just so happen to have a peel-off base coat or aluminum foil, no need to panic! Simply use a glitter nail polish remover, specifically made to get rid of hard-to-remove glitter.
✅ Apply remover to a cotton ball or pad.
✅ Place it on your nail for 10-15 seconds.
✅ Gently rub the cotton pad over your nail until the glitter is gone.
Be gentle, as the remover for glitter polish can be a bit messy, and work over a towel or piece of newspaper to catch any stray pieces of glitter!
Additional Hacks to Make It Easy!
Employ a Barrier: Place an old towel or plastic sheet on your work surface before removing polish to catch the glitter.
Soak Your Nails: If your polish is sticking hard, try soaking your nails in warm water for a minute or two to loosen it.
Use a Toothbrush: For loose, remaining flakes of glitter, pick them out by loosening with a soft toothbrush and wiggle your nails.
Tape Clean Up: Annoyed getting glittered and made up on your hands? Roll up stray glitters using a piece of sticky tape or lint roller!
