Acetone is a very powerful solvent and it works the best at removing polish. But it’s also very harsh because it removes a lot of natural oils from your skin. In fact, sometimes your skin will look really white if you’ve used too much acetone on it. That means you’ve dried your skin out.
Pros: Most effective way to remove nail polish.
Cons: Harsh and very drying to nails, cuticles and skin. Women with nails that are dry or splitting should avoid using.
