How to Remove Gel Polish at Home

What you'll need:

-pure acetone
-10 squares of aluminum foil
-cotton pads, cut into small pieces to cover your nails (you can also use small pieces of cotton balls)
-nail buffer

Start by cutting the foil and cotton. Soak each piece of cotton in acetone and place directly over your nail. Take a piece of foil and place it over the cotton and around your finger, as tightly as you can. Do this to all your fingers and keep them in the foil for at least 20 minutes. When you're ready to take the foil off, press hard on your nail so the polish can come off with the foil. Some of the polish won't come off completely do you may need a tool to scrape the excess polish off. Use a buffer to make your nails smooth and you're done!

What your hands should look like with the foil on:
