Nail polish remover - pads or bottles?

[citygirl1961]

I find the pads much handier than using the bottles and cotton wool but they don't seem to last very long. Which is your preference?

I use the bottles with cotton wool pads.

The pads are great for travel though.

I am a convert to this

Works really well, no mess (no cotton wool to throw away) and smells ok.

Bourjois also do one for fingernails and toenails now but I haven't tried that one.

That looks good Linus. Might have to try it when I run out of remover. How many times can you use it for?

I've also got the bourjois one, I've had it since November so it's lasting ok so far.

I've forgotten when I bought my first bottle (about a year ago?) and I've just bought my second one. I don't use it on a weekly basis though so it might last less long if you paint your nails a lot.

The first one still works but it takes a bit more effort twisting your finger in the foam to take the nail varnish off so I will keep that one for when I travel.

Top tip: don't put your big toe in the foam whilst simultaneously tipping the bottle sideways, a lot most of the remover leaks out that way...

I think the one for fingers and toes had a special foam bit in the cap for removing varnish from toes. Brilliant idea!

Thanks!
