Spray for before nail varnish, for clumsy people

Sorry for the vague title!

I saw a thread on here ages ago about a spray you use before nail polish. Then you just peel off all the polish that went on your skin instead of the nail.

Can someone please remind me what it's called? My vague googling isn't working!

It's so I don't end up looking like this. Blush

My toes look like that after I've painted them (worse actually) but I just scrub the excess off in the morning in the shower with an exfoliating glove, all the polish comes off your skin leaving you with perfectly painted toe nails.

Ooh i really hope there is such a thing as a spray! Would be fab for my DD who has a tremor so painting her nails is super difficult.

Your toes look like mine after I've painted them! Cotton bud and a bit of nail varnish remover tidies them up though.

Don't know about a spray but you can use a peel off base coat just on the skin around your nails - should be able to pick up cheap ones in wilkos or Superdrug. Alternatively you can just use watered down pva glue in an old polish bottle.

Another option would be spray on polish...

Cotton bud and polish remover here too. However I usually just leave it as it comes off naturally over the next day or two.

Not a spray but liquid latex - can be bought in a bottle that looks like nail polish, applied with a brush

I also don't know about a spray, but varnish remover on a cotton bud will get the excess off.

I think it was the liquid latex. I'll order some. Thanks Curls
