How to Remove Acrylic Nails Safely
Acetone Soak Method
Step 1: Cut and File
To begin, use nail clippers to cut your acrylic nails as short as possible. File away any remaining acrylic material to create a thin layer.
Step 2: Apply Petroleum Jelly
Apply a thick layer of petroleum jelly to the skin around your cuticles. This will help protect your skin from the harsh effects of acetone.
Step 3: Soak in Acetone
In a shallow dish, pour pure acetone and soak your nails for 10-15 minutes. The acetone will dissolve the acrylic bonds and soften the material.
