Manicare Nail Polish Remover Pads Review

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).

Even tho this product is non messy. I didn’t enjoy using this to take of my nail polish, didn’t seem to remove all my nail polishes as fast or easily as a cotton ball does for myself.

Definitely will try this product again but not until I run out of my cotton wall

This little plastic tub of nail polish remover pads is a miracle!! They remove every trace of nail polish, all without smelling all chemically and yuck! After using these twice in the past week I think I can say I have definitely seen positive effects on my nails they seem stronger abs and not dry (like the typical acetone removers make my nails feel.)

The only possible downside is how thin the nail polish remover pads are! If you use one pad for all 10 nails it ends up becoming a little difficult by the 10th as the pad is all crumpled up in a little ball. However this is only minor.

"Floral Scent" I was very impressed with this product. The packaging is cute, it's easy to open yet secure enough that product will not come out.

The pads are very durable and will not break down or apart when using them. This product has a nice subtle floral scent to it, also it doesn't have a strong nail polish remover smell.

I tested it with 3 brands of nail polish: Revlon, Rimmel(matte) and DB. The nail polish pad removed all brands with ease. I used 1 pad and it did all 10 finger nails. There are exactly 32 pads in this product.... I know because I counted them individually one by one.

My cuticle and nails are left feeling extremely soft, smooth, Nourished and didn't strip my nail. I've never had a nail polish remover do that.

This will be fantastic for travel, brilliant to have on hand as a Beauty therapist or just to have in your bag. Because you never know!

Highly Recomend (This was tested on normal polish not gel etc.)

this is my first trial so thank you beuaty review. these pads are so clever. i put them to use straight away and i am impressed.

i like the no fuss container and the size of the pads. it easily does 5 fingers or toes, maybe more if i really stretch it. theyre moist and they feel hydrating which i like.

these are easy to use, just a few wipes and the polish is gone. i liked the smell too, its much better than the usual nail polish remover smell. theyre perfect for travel too, so ill be buying them again.

I have tried liquid nail polish remover and found it dried my nails and hands , also leaves a thin residue under nails. This easy to use product feels so good after use , no drying out of nails or my hands , and removes nail polish very well , they are very convenient to carry, if traveling , no spillage Would definitely recommend these ! Very reasonable in price too

Fast effective way to remove polish. I love this and it's kinda fun to use. This is so fast and easy and even removes stubborn red polish with ease.

These wipes are handy for standard nail polish, but I mainly wear glittery polishes and these don’t budge them at all. They also stick to each other so it’s quite fiddly to get them apart.

I love the concept of this product - so convenient and compact! And acetone free so even better! The scent is pleasant but not too overpowering. It leaves my nails and cuticles feeling moisturised due to the Vitamin E added :) I agree with another review here, i usually need one pad for each hand, and wouldn't recommend for super glittery polish.
