Swisspers Nail Polish Remover Pads Review

While visiting a friend I managed to chip a nail and I dont know about you but the minute my nail polish chips I start picking at it. Lol. So with my nail chipped and the nail polish lifting this was exactly what I did, picked at the nail polish. My friend gave me some of these nail polish pads and they worked great. No strong smell like other removers. Loved theses easy to use fuss free pads. Have since purchased my own

These are super handy and perfect for travel when you don’t want to take a whole bottle of polish remover with you. It’s also great for at home when you don’t want to muck around with cotton wool. Polish comes off super easy with a few wipes. I didn’t notice a particularly strong scent which you can get with some polish wipes. The only thing is that it works out to be quite a bit more expensive than the bottled product - you pay the for convenience!

As I love my nails painted at all times, I use a lot of nail polish remover.

I came across these nail polish remover pads in a pharmacy and thought I would try them. I am always worried with nail polish remover I might tip it over or spill it, it is nasty stuff on your surfaces.

These little cotton rounds are nice smelling [not like liquid nail polish remover] and clean your nails well. I usually use two. One cleans the bulk of the polish off and the second one just finishes off. They leave your nails clean and the skin around your nails nourished and they do not dry out your nails or skin.

I love these as they are totally mess free and you cant really spill them.

I got these in a Swisspers value pack with other things I needed like cotton buds and rounds. I was interested to see how well these would work, especially since the pads are very thin. I found that one pad was good for removing the polish off two nails. I could make the pad work to take the polish off five nails but that would require more rubbing and after doing it once I found buffing my nails with the thin cotton pad to take all the nail polish off took awhile. The pros of this product, is that the nail polish remover doesn't have a really strong smell and the container is spill proof and small. So really handy if you are going away for a week and you know your manicure might start to look tacky and need removing while you are away. The main thing that I used this for was to sort of sharpen the lines of my French tips I would fold these in half and buff it against the top of the French tip to even the line out. It worked well for that. It was nice that pad was thin and had nail polish remover on it already but not tons as it just removed enough nail polish to straighten and sharpen my French tips. I think this is good for if you get nail polish around your nails while doing nail art or something these already have nail polish remover so handy to use to just remove what got around your nail. However if I am going to use it for its intended purpose to completely remove my manicure I find that nail polish remover and a cotton round does a better and easier job. So I'm not sure if I am going to repurchase these unless I was traveling.

Swisspers remover pads are handy to own. They are the prefect size for travelling or putting in the car for nail polish related emergencies.

I like how they are acetone free and that they contain vitamin E and Aloe Vera so provide conditioning to your nail bed/cuticles. No strong chemical smells like you get with other nail polish removers. Typically I need one Swisspers pad per hand however some nail polishes with glitter or texture to them can require a lot more and they often don’t remove all the polish.

I will keep buying them because they are convenient but always have liquid remover as well.

I bought these so I could take my polish off at my desk without grossing everyone out with the smell of nail polish remover. They're a much less offensive smell, and they work about as well as I'd expect them to - that is, they'll get your polish off, but it will take much longer than using nail polish remover. It usually takes me 2 pads to remove all my fingernail polish.

I find them quite oily, so definitely have to wash my hands after using them, otherwise new polish won't stick.

I was not expecting great things when I recently purchased a tub of these wipes as previously they just seemed to lift the polish off the nail but move it around onto your skin, or if you are clumsy like me your clothes! However when I picked these up I did notice the little label of NEW and IMPROVED formula on the side and seeing as I had no other options to remove the polish at the time I grabbed a pot.

Design wise, these come in a small white pot with a screw on lid, inside there is the small round, thin pads stacked together in their moist state. You need to peel them apart as they are quite saturated, which is why it is super important to correctly and firmly replace the lid once finished as if these pads dry out there will be good for nothing.

Formula wise these are soft, non scratchy, cotton thin rounds, that are soaked in a nail varnish remover solution, there is a slight waxy, oily residue to them so it is handy to have some wet wipes or tissues handy to keep yourself clean and tidy.

I was impressed at how quickly and effectively they removed the bright pink polish that I had on at the time, which was in 2 coats with a gel top coat. One pad successfully removed 2 nails worth without leaving any polish streaks on the nails or bits around the cuticle. However once I had all removed I did use an extra one to just wipe over each nail again to be double sure it was all removed.

The formula used as the nail polish remove that was soaking the pads was gentle, non scented and didn't irritate me at all.

I really do love the idea of these, I wear nail polish all the time but hate the look of them when they chip. I brought these as I thought they would be great to pop in my handbag for those "ugly chipped everyone is looking at my nails emergency's" im sure you guys know what im talking about :)

In those situations yes I guess they are good but they do not beat the normal liquid nail polish remover for me. I found any polish I wore was very hard to remove and can take up to three pads which to me is just a waste. If I wore any dark colors like red it just tends to smudge over my fingers rather then remove and dont even get me started on glitter polish...just impossible

All in all I would still use these if I really needed to remove my nail polish and I was out but Im going to be sticking to the good old nail polish remover and cotton pads for now.

The concept of these is great. Round wipes, pre-soaked in nail polish remover, stacked into a screw cap jar for use on the go. . . sounds awesome. On some levels, they are. But they can't quite compete with the usual liquid remover, for me.

I wear a lot of nail polish, and I don't like being at work with chipped, nasty looking polish as I think it looks untidy and unprofessional. I picked up some of these to keep in my work bag for those nail emergencies.

The screw cap white plastic pottle with purple lettering that these come in is a convenient, easy-access storage solution that is portable and sturdy. I have not experienced leaking or noticeable odour from this way of storing the wipes.

The Swisspers Nail Polish Removal Pads DO remove nail polish, but it can be messy and laborious at times. They tend to smear polish as they remove it, and can create a bit of a hassle that you later have to clear up. Another wipe and a good wash with soap and water usually takes care of that though. They're also a little on the oily side and can leave a little residue.

Lighter colours in thinner layers succumb more easily, but darker colours, multilayer looks, and glitter polishes take a lot of work. I tend to just use them if I really need to because of this.

They don't have as harshly chemical a scent as liquid remover and that's great when you're using them, but makes me wonder if the product perhaps isn't quite as strong.

Overall, these are good in a pinch, but I wouldn't use them as my preferred method of removing polish as there are easier, more cost effective ways of doing this. However, for ease of use when moving about, it is worth having them handy. They'd also be useful if younger kids are wanting to remove polish (little girls love it!) because they're much harder to spill and make a mess with.

I was super excited about this product, who wouldn't like the idea of useing nail polish remover without having to tip the bittle of remover onto the cotton ball which is quite messy. This was is already don't for you.

However I didn't like how it seamed to smear the nail polish over my finger tips and only removed about 90% of what was on my finger nails.

The container that it comes in is just a average white pottle but it's really easy to open and close and it's not too big so it's perfect to throw in your handbag or in your over night bag if your going away
