When I got some on clothes, nail polish remover worked quite well (but I would try some first in an out of the way location).

Use nail polish remover to get the worst off, then dab dry, then very gently use a disposable razor to shave the rest out.

This was black nail polish all over a cream carpet in a holiday rental! You honestly couldn't tell there had been anything there.

Crikey! Ok thanks for that! Have tried nail polish remover but it seems to just be smearing it around!!

Dab pure acetone into it make sure it's dried before you try it only dab don't rub

I tipped red nail varnish on my mum's cream carpet and white spirit (yes I know) got it out

I once got nail varnish on an acrylic jumper and used Stain Devils. It was one of the few times Stain Devils actually worked.

Red nail varnish on cream carpet- window cleaner (green mr muscle kind) and a LOT of scrubbing.
Can't tell where it was now.
