We’re slightly revising our thoughts about nail polish remover, after reading this advice from a New York dermatologist, Francesca Fusco. Turns out: the bottle without this solvent may not be gentler after all. Acetone is highly effective at dissolving polish fast, whereas acetone-free polishes work more slowly, require more rubbing and may actually leave nails drier. Look for a remover featuring aloe vera to counteract acetone’s drying effects – and always try to find time to rub in a few drops of oil, allowing them to sink in for a few hours before re-varnishing.
