Manicare Nail Polish Remover Pads Review

Came in a nice small handy container. Took me awhile to open it, I used a knife to open,then I found the little tag to rip open. The smell was pleasant and you wouldn't even know that it was for removing polish. This product removed my polish quite well on myself but with my daughters old polish it took abit of a good scrubbing to remove. Overall I liked how it didn't have a strong smell was small enough to have in my handbag without worrying about leaking.

I love this product! It’s so easy to use and removes nail polish so easily. It also smells really nice, not like other nail polish removers. I also love that it’s not messy to use at all and it’s also great to travel with as you don’t have to worry about it leaking at all!

One word for Manicare Nail Polish Remover Pads would be "Mind-blowing". Most of the times I hate to apply nail polish just because of hassle of removing it and then ugly looking nails afterwards. Nails look yellowish and dry after using other products. But I am completely amazed to use this product as it left my nails moisturized and shiny. The packaging is compact and so convenient to carry in a hand bag and I am glad that I can do the job anytime and anywhere. The floral scent is another reason I am loving it. It is very reasonably priced and good quantity of pads in the pot. Now I can apply nail polish happily because I know I can remove it quickly with beautiful looking nails.

I trialed the floral scent pads. These come in a little screw top container. I found the seal was quite hard to peal off, but at least with a decent seal they are not going to be dried out when you get them. The scent is not very strong in the container, but once used on your fingernails, it is quite a nice smell. I love the fact that they don't have that strong remover smell. I used these on the most stubborn nail polish I have. I found they removed it a little easier than other removers I have tried. Depending on how often you paint your nails or change the colour, these should last a while as I only needed one to do both hands. They left my nails looking shiny and feeling like they had been moisturized. These are perfect if you have children that like to paint/have their nails painted as they can remove it themselves without you worrying that they are going to spill remover everywhere. Miss 10 found these easy to use and not stinky (as she put it). These are a great size for travel etc. Will be purchasing these again.

My nails are always painted. And generally I'll change my nails every two to three days, so I go through a lot of remover and cotton balls. I liked the idea of these, but I was extremely skeptical of these nail polish remover pads. I imagined I'd need about one per nail and that it would take all day to actually get all of the polish off. I vaguely remember using some in the past and they were an awful waste of time, so I really did expect this product to be gimmicky.

I couldn't have been more wrong. I used these on four separate occasions, and each time the process was easy and fast. I started off using it on a pale pink cream, and sort of wrapped the pad around my finger so that it was pressed into the nail and held it there for a bit like I would with a normal cotton ball. When I then started to rub, barely anything came off so I immediately thought 'uh oh, these are going to be a struggle'. But then I just started wiping my nails, and the colour came off pretty effortlessly. I only had to use two for the whole removal process (I'm sure I would have used at least 3 or 4 cotton balls).

The real test was a bright red. I was quite worried about staining my fingers and thought I'd be leaving heaps of polish in the corners/sidewalls and cuticles. Well. I did end up using four of the pads, but any colour that did transfer to my skin, the pads soaked up. And there was none left on my nails either. Incredible. It was quite interesting/awesome that you really can cover every tiny bit of the pad in colour, yet it doesn't spread it everywhere on your skin.

I loved that the smell was pleasant and not outright chemically, and I liked that it left my nails moisturised, although I still washed my hands immediately after as it just felt a bit weird leaving any remover lingering on my skin.

Not sure if the 'brightening serum' had a positive impact on my nails. To be honest I don't care one way or the other considering it did its basic job so well. It's certainly as good as or better than regular remover in terms of how it feels to use.

This product was such a winner for me. 32 pads will actually last a good while and I think the price will be really reasonable, plus it's going to be so convenient for trips away. The pads in the tub are still super moist and I expect that as long as you put the lid on after use they will stay that way for a long time. I absolutely would use again and I would even purchase the product myself (which is unusual for me!)

I paint my nails regularly and have used different forms of removers.

I have a particular penchant for the nail wipe, as I find it quite fiddly and splashy to use bottled remover and cotton pads.

The dip remover pottles are also good but it gets a little funky in there after a while- yuck!

These Manicare Nail Polish Remover Pads (limited edition) are a bit of a letdown, compared to the cheaper nail wipes I usually use.

The pads (32 in pottle)are damp with polish remover, like other nail wipes, and you just swipe over polish and, to Manicare's credit, they remove polish instantly (I use gel or ordinary polish, can't vouch for glitter etc).

It is difficult to gauge whether the extreme post-pad nail dryness of these wipes is a result of good stuff settling (Vitamin E, nail-brightening serum) or damage occurring. They purport to be moisturising and gentle -not my impression. They were definitely not brighter.

The scent is overpowering and hard to pinpoint. I would rather have a coconut or light fruit scent than the dusty-potpourri stink these wipes put out.

Visually, the product label is very busy with information and pattern. I prefer a simpler, sleeker packaging. It looks low-end with the white plastic tub, despite the attempts to look upmarket by employing a Bec & Bridge print.

These are fine but I wouldn't buy them if I could get a cheaper option ($4.99 rrp is fine but I've found cheaper, more effective pads/wipes).

Upon opening, I got a pleasant light floral fragrance that wasnt overpowering like regular nail polish remover. As I have never used polish removing pads before, I cant compare to others but I found these to be easy to use and loved not having to worry about spilling a bottle of remover on the floor. The pads are very thin but efficiently removed the polish from my toes leaving them highly moisturised and not drying at all. I had 2 layers of regular polish on and used one pad per foot and a third one to make sure I got the last of the polish off both hands. These are very convenient to use and great to have in your handbag to use "on the go". I highly rate these and think they are good value for money and convenience

Wow absolutely amazed with this product, I used my minnie mouse opi glitter nail polish on 3 nails to test as ended up having family stuff going on and work so didn't get to fully test but I already love it. I could get the glitter polish off so easily compared to trying to use nail polish remover and cotton balls and used 1 pad for 2 nails. And to have my hands feel smooth is great too, definitely want the coconut ones though as the floral seems to give me a headache which is a disappointment.

Anyone who has ever taken or wanted to take nail polish remover and cotton balls away with them knows how these could be so handy! When I went travelling earlier this year and left home without my nail polish remover. So I headed into my local pharmacy and found these. They were super handy. We were road tripping and I was in the passenger seat removing my nail polish! They did take a bit of a scrub to get the polish off but but were awesome. They didn't have that strong smell nail polish remover normally has and there was no risk of spillage. Now being back from holiday, I continue to use these and have them in my handbag always! Love this product!

Everyone must try the Manicare Nail Polish Remover Pads! These are a miracle that come in a round, compact, sealed container that fits perfectly in my handbag (a.k.a the Tardis) and also in my travel toilet bag. I think they are affordable as well.

Once you remove the plastic seal and unscrew the plastic lid there is a secondary foil seal. Once you pull the secondary seal back, all is revealed. A very pleasant floral fragrance and 32 very thin, yet amazingly durable Manicare Nail Polish Remover Pads.

I usually wear three layers on my finger nails which includes a base coat, a natural shade and a top coat. I only use 1 Manicare Nail Polish Remover Pad for both hands.

I usually wear three or four layers on my toe nails which includes a base coat, 1-2 dark shades and a top coat. I use 2 Manicare Nail Polish Remover Pads for both feet.

The Manicare Nail Polish Remover Pads feel quite delicate but it is amazing what they can do. Nail polish literally glides off with these wee beauties and there are no unpleasant smells! Not one. My husband doesn't realise what I am doing, unless he is watching. They are just so convenient and effective.

After using Manicare Nail Polish Remover Pads, my nails and cuticles look healthy and feel nourished. These are acetone free and as the packaging states - they are moisturising.

Definitely recommend.
