Manicare Nail Polish Remover Pads Review

I ordered these remover pads (the floral ones) from the BR Beauty Vault. There are 32 in the small container that can fit in my palm. The pads themselves are thinner than I thought they would be, but still hold quite a lot of the nail polish remover liquid. One pad was enough to remove the nail polish from all of my toes! (Though admittedly I have quite small toes.) The best thing about this product is that it doesn't stink! I was preparing my self on opening for a concentrated smell of turps that come with most nail polish remover, but not from these! Though there is a light floral smell and a little chemically-ness it is no where near as pungent as any other polish remover I've used. Plus, because there are so many pads in such a small container, it'll be great for going on holiday with if I get the urge to do my nails.

At first I was a bit apprehensive about using these remover pads (i received them in a BBBE). I normally use regular acetone free nail polish remover and was unsure how these remover pads would work. However I love using them! They are quick and easy to use and don't dry out your nails and cuticles.

The pads are similar to the round Colton makeup remover pads you buy. The are already pre soaked in the remover solution. I find that one pad is enough to use for one hand. I also love that these remover pads don't have the strong acetone smell!

The solution it's soaked in is oily. Which is odd for me as I've never used an oil based nail polish remover. However it breaks down the polish easily and the polish comes off within a couple of swipes. Because of the oily texture, it hydrates your nails and cuticles and doesn't leave them dry like normal nail polish remover would.

Even though these are more expensive than a bottle of normal nail polish remover I would definitely buy these again because they don't dry out your cuticles and isn't as harsh as acetone (even when you use the acetone free version). I would definitely recommend these.

Hands up for Manicare for bringing us a nail polish removing product minus the mess and fuss. I first purchashed one of these at Farmers and have since become a devotee when it comes to removing my polish because they make the process so quick and easy.

The packaging is secure and small enough to keep a few of them around. I like to keep one of these in my travel bag for when my polish chips and I want to remove it, because it's soooo much more convenient than lugging around cotton pads and a bottle of polish remover. You also get the added bonus of knowing it's not going to leak on you (been there, done that).

Performance-wise the pads work well at removing standard polish in an easy swipe, but they do struggle with special effect polish such as OPI Liquid Sand or glitter polish. It takes a bit more work to remove them but the Manicare pads do get there in the end. Afterwards you have an oily residue left on your nails and hands but it isn't unpleasant and smells fine.

Would I purchase again? Definately!

I received this in the We Love Nail Best Ever Beauty Box. I thought it's addition was a good idea since if you're a beginner at some point you're going to need to take off the polish. For starters the pot is good in that it doesn't leak which is important since it's handy for traveling. The formula for this polish remover is different than what I have come across in the past the polish remover solution seems oily and leaves a bit of a residue on your nails after you have wiped off the polish, however the residue isn't drying which is good. One pad seems to remove most of the polish on one hand depending on how many coats of polish I have on. I usually need to take a second pad and remove the remaining polish after the first initial pad. I haven't tried it with glitter or textured polish so I don't know how well it removes those. It doesn't have an exceptionally strong scent like most polish removers. I wouldn't say it's a nice coconut scent but it's a better scented polish remover than what I normally use. The only con I can think of with this is that compared to a regular bottle of nail polish remover this is more expensive for the amount. Still it doesn't cost too much and if I were traveling I would consider having these handy.

The first thing I noticed was the packaging. The removal pads are kept inside an air locked circular container. A great travel size to pop into a bag. The pads have a floral scent as described on the packaging. The scent isn’t overpowering. The floral scent reminds me of my grandma’s house. No chemical smell. One pad goes a long way, able to remove nail polish from one hand effectively. This nail polish remover didn’t dry out or damage the surrounding skin of my nail beds. It was the opposite, it was super hydrating!

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.

These are super neat! This little box contains 32 pads, and one pad is enough to get rid of all the polish on both hands. So if I have a different set of nails every week this'll last me over 6 months, all for $5!

The individual pads are quite thin, but hold up their integrity very well. They're well saturated with remover so I didn't have to scrub very hard at my nails. Towards the last couple fingers I did find it getting a bit more difficult to use, and that the pad felt almost soapy.

This left some sort of oil on my nails, which seemed quite gentle and moisturising, but I always wash my hands and reapply cuticle oil anyway. This would be great though for anyone who don't bother with cuticle oil after using nail-polish remover. I also noticed that the skin around my nails didn't look dried out, which I find with some cheap nail polish removers.

Another thing I really liked is the slight fragrance. Nothing more annoying than removing your nails and then having to wallow in the toxic fume smell for the whole night because it's too cold to open the windows. This barely smelled at all and afterwards I noticed my nails smelling nice and flowery! Of all the nail polish removers I've used, only the Chanel polish remover can compare to this, and even then I think this comes out on top.

The baseline: works great at removing polish, doesn't crumble apart like a cotton pad might, smells lovely, leaves nail moisturised. I'll definitely buy again once it runs out, thanks BR for introducing me to this!

This is the first time that I have used nail polish remover pads. I was very excited to receive this. I was sent the floral scented edition of this to review.

The pads number 32 and they come in a small, round, white plastic container branded with Manicare. The container has a screw-on lid, and beneath that a foil seal to prevent the product from drying out.

I tested these pads by using them to remove 3 coats of nail polish on my fingernails, which had badly chipped-off. The first 2 coats were of a bright blue polish, and the third coat was clear with glitter particles in it. It was the ultimate test because glitter polish is very hard to remove!

These nail polish remover pads passed with flying colours. I found that each hand only required 1 pad to remove all of the nail polish. The pads are damp with remover, but they are very gentle, and easy to work over the nails of each hand. The floral scent is pleasant, and much nicer than the traditionally very chemical smell of bottled nail polish remover. The pads also promise to be moisturising, and they were! It seemed almost like they had oil in them, as they left my nails feeling soft and moisturised, instead of dry like regular nail polish remover. They do say that they contain Vitamin E.

I love these! I think they are a brilliant idea for removing nail polish, and Manicare have done an excellent job in creating them.

As soon as I opened the container it was so refreshing not to be hit in the face with that age old nail polish remover smell - yuck! The pads have a sublte floral smell and I love that there is no acetone and they are loaded with vitamin E. I used one pad to take off all the nail polish on both feet. It worked a lot quicker than I thought and left my nails looking refreshed. I will never use nail polish remover again - remover pads for life :-)

"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.)
