Acetone or Non-acetone?

I have always been a firm believer of acetone nail polish remover. Especially because it works probably 76 times better than non-acetone and is exactly, to the T with the i's dotted, the same price. Why would anyone walking on the world ever buy non-acetone?

1. Because they have little kids and they don't want the acetone to ruin their carpet. My mom pointed this out to me. Okay, fine - but what is more important, carpet or humans? haha, just kidding Mom. A little bit of luxury isn't worth ruining your carpet.

2. Because it ruins your nails!? What? Yes, Exactly four weeks from this coming Monday someone told me that this lethal substance, acetone nail polish, ruins your nails. And it is true because the internet said the same thing. I'm not shy; I am a frequent nail polish removerer. My nails seem fine, but, well, what if??

So today, or probably tomorrow - definitely not until Saturday, I am buying myself a pretty bottle of non-acetone.

Speaking of nail polish, once my perfect lil' sis got mad at me and decided to punish me by pouring nail polish remover on my bed, in a little polish-remover lake right below my pillow (piilllooowww). Okay, so she was five, but my parents took away all her nail polish for multiple-who-knows-how-many years. Now she paints my toe nails whenever I go home to continue paying off her dept, or maybe she does it just because she loves me...

  2. You've got me wondering what kind I use. I know I can't use it when any other human is in the house - my husband and boys can't stand the smell of nail polish remover. Funny post. Thanks for sharing!

  3. Yes, it seems like acetone nail polish remover is the way to go. Moms, keep it out of your kids reach, problem solved.

  5. 1. This was a super funny post.
    2. I feel like I'm commenting on your blog all the time.
    3. I have no idea how you remember the exact date that I told you about acetone murdering my nails.
    4. You're worth the 97 cents that a bottle of nail polish remover costs.
    5. If you decide you're a lifetime acetone-lover, you can totes have mine.
    6. Or you can just wait until you live in my bedroom and then maybs I'll just pour it on your bed.
