Take half vinegar and half rubbing alcohol and mix. Apply to a clean cloth and rub on nails. Then apply a second coat of nail polish and rub off. All the nail polish should come off then. Vinegar seeps into the polish and breaks it down, while the alcohol liquifies it when combined with the vinegar. After that...make sure you wash your hands thoroughly to get all the vinegar off because that can cause your hands to dry up and crack and could also make your fingernails brittle!

Good Luck!

1) you can use rubbing alcohol
2)paint more nail polish on it (it should be clear)and before it dries, rub it off, this will make the other nail polish come off with it.
3)you can scratch it off, but this might take a while, and there might be some left on, like in the corners and that,

1) rubbing alcohol
2) clear nail polish/top coat put it on a nail at a time then wipe it off quickly, i would suggest using a paper towel though because the cottonballs or tissue might leave those little fuzzy pieces, and without nail polish remover it might be al little harder to get off.




hope i helped =>

1. Rubbing Alcohol
2. Lighter fluids (I don't really suggest this, lol)
3. Scratch it off


OR-
Simply grab a bottle of clear or light colored nail polish and some cotton balls.

Next, paint the clear/light polish over your current polish. (Note: Do this one finger at a time)

Let it sit for about 15 seconds.

Wipe with the cotton ball and it should mostly come off.

You might have to repeat the process on each nail.

Using clear polish or topcoat can substitute for remover. Brush a layer of the clear stuff over your nail, then quickly rub it off with a tissue. The offending color will come off too. Or you can try layering a new color (close in shade to the old one) on top of the first color. and then using a tissue.

it works really realy well. :)
if it doesnt ( even though thats highly unlikely), you can scrtach it off. its probally bad for your nails but ive done it before.

What I used to do is repaint and wipe it off one finger at a time. I have no idea if that works on polish anymore but its worth a try. You could also try alcohol. :)
