   I love this nail polish remover! There used to be a product on the market called Once Removed that was also an oil-based polish remover. Unfortunately, it was discontinued. I happened across this Karma Naturals polish remover on Amazon when I was looking for a gentle, non-acetone remover. This had great reviews and the price was reasonable, so I gave it a try. I was hoping it would be as good as Once Removed and it is!

   I’m not sure why, but my once-strong nails have become very soft and peel-y in the past year or so. I’ve been having a difficult time growing them past my fingertips. I did some research and realized even the non-acetone remover I had been using was still too harsh and drying and has contributed to my nails becoming weak and fragile.

   I’ve been using this Karma Naturals remover for the past month or so and am impressed. It removes non-glitter polish just as well as my non-acetone remover, but it doesn’t leave my nails feeling stripped and dry afterwards. Of course, you have to wash your hands with soap and warm water in order to remove the excess oil if you want to apply nail polish or a treatment, but that’s not a big deal.

   I have this in the tea tree oil version and love the mild, natural oil scent. No harsh, toxic fumes with this! When I use up this bottle, I’ll try the lavender one next.

   The price may seem high compared to a bottle of regular nail polish remover, but it’s worth it if your nails are dry and fragile. You also don’t need to use very much as it’s pretty strong. I probably use less of this stuff than normal remover. Tip: if the polish is stubborn, let this remover sit on your nails for 30 seconds or so, then try wiping it off.

   Highly recommended.

   Worth every penny. Yes it is a bit pricy, but a little goes a long way since it doesn’t evaporate as you are using it. I use two soaked pads to do remove base, two coats of polish and Seche Ultra V top coat.
   This is now the only remover I use, and my nails have never been better. I had tried many expensive treatments for peeling nails, but of course using acetone removers made them a waste of time and money. Now my nails are strong and not a peel to be seen – I have to trim to keep them from getting too long, whereas before I couldn’t even get them beyond my nail bed without peeling and breaking.
   This takes a few extra minutes to use, but it is just not that big of a deal. It will even remove glitter polish which really surprised me!!

   It’s great! And lasts a long time!

   No nasty solvents, no nasty smells, better for your health.

   It is on the pricey side, but for what you pay for, this is worth it. I never use acetone solvents as those break and damage my nails.

   This range comes in several scents and unscented.

   I have used the lavender scented one (pleasant smelling), and I have tested with the Vitamin E oil one too. They may have a few new scents at the moment. I noticed the vitamin E one made my nails feel smooth and nourished.

   Pro tip: Use a cotton bud, dip it into the bottle lightly. This will be enough to take the polish off all your nails if you have a thin coat! Hold the cotton bud over your nails for 5-10 seconds, start rubbing to get the polish off. Pretty easy! And no nasty scents!
