Lavender Natural Organic Nontoxic Nail Polish Remover

I absolutely love Karma organic polish remover - and the bundle is a nice value as well as a way to try out different aroma options. I’ve gone through so many bottles of this polish remover that I want to be sure I have some on hand. It’s gentle and has a much more pleasant scent than typical polish removers. It actually moisturizes skin and nails while removing polish. If you’re new to soy based polish removers it’s best to expect to be a little patient with the removal process. I much prefer the pleasant, less intense aroma and moisturized nails and skin to harsh polish removers. It can help to soak a cotton round or ball and let it saturate the polished nail a bit before rubbing to remove polish. The bottle is glass and can be recycled - and according to the label the remover itself is biodegradable. Each bottle in the bundle had an extra layer of cardboard in the box for extra protection - very nice for glass bottles. The lavender was my go to scent - but I just tried the rose oil scent - and I like it just as much. Both scents are naturally derived and not too strong. For those sensitive to scent it comes in unscented as well. Besides removing nail polish - I found it worked great when my friend’s car was sideswiped - she was able to remove the paint left on her car without damaging her car’s original paint at all - so I imagine this remover can be used in many situations where a gentle remover is needed…!

I was blown away by this nail polish remover! Not only was it more effective than any other nail polish remover I've ever had before, it did not stink! For whatever reason, I didn't have high hopes on either of those counts but with just two cotton balls, very little time, and no assault my nostrils, the dark grey polish was gone, and my fingernails looked fresh and clean. Also, my nails were not were not dried out after, the way can be with other polish and removers. I'm so glad found this product!

Absolutely love this polish remover! Efficient and it leaves my nails and cuticles hydrated. It’s also so efficient a bottle lasts a long time. And, it smells great! ;)

I've purchased Karma Organic Nail Polish Remover with Soysbean Oil and Lavender Oil many times, and it is hands-down the best natural nail polish remover I've ever used. Yes at $11.99 for 4 ounces it's more expensive than conventional removers, but it's absolutely worth it. I have very problematic nails, and this is one of the few removers that's actually gentle and doesn't leave them dry, brittle or damaged. Even on a tight budget, this is one product I choose to splurge on because it truly makes a difference. It removes polish effectively without acetone, smells wonderful thanks to the lavender oil, and leaves my nails feeling nourished rather than stripped. I also love that it's non-toxic, vegan and cruelty-free. If you're looking for a nail polish remover that's kind to your nails and doesn't smell harsh or chemical, I can't recommend this enough.

I purchased this product in hopes of replacing my previous standard non-acetone nail polish remover. Here is my review broken down in parts: Packaging: When it arrived I was excited. Seeing as I paid $13.00 for this small bottle, I had expected a full bottle of the solution. This was not the case (and is the reason for my less than perfect review). As I show in the uploaded image, the bottle is missing approximately 2cm from the top of the bottle (or for better reference- up to the purple label, rather than what is seen in the image). Based on the amount I would normally use, that would be anywhere from 2-3 full nail removal. I am very unhappy about this. Performance: Once I received it, I decided to test it out right away. I recently switched to Butter nail polish (free from formaldehyde, and all carcinogens), and in order to have a lasting manicure it requires a base coat+2 color coats+top coat. I applied this to one nail, and a standard 2 coats of Essi nail polish + top coat (don't use base coat here, I have a home made nail strengthener that I use before application) on another. I allowed them to dry for 15 min and then proceeded to use the Lavender remover. There was no noxious smell whatsoever, with just a whiff of lavender being the only thing I sensed. The nail polish came off very quickly, didn't require more than 5 seconds of rubbing per nail. I have not tested a full ten nails, but based on the results I have seen I believe dabbing quickly, waiting 10 sec and then rubbing in circles to remove will work well and require only one partially saturated cotton ball. It is a bit oily, but I just washed my hands well after use, to remove excess. Ingredients: As I am very careful about what I permit to touch my body or skin, I have decided to break down the ingredients. - Propylene Carbonate- low hazard, no carcinogen proof, strong irritant on skin in base form (diluted cosmetic version is safe), no toxic effects discovered in research. It is a synthetic compound, but that doesn't mean that it is bad. - soybean oil methyl exter- used in cosmetics or for car and asphalt cleaning; meets clean air standards (meaning non-toxic if inhaled); non-toxic, bio-based. There has been a possibility of a connection between soybeans and breast cancer in research, but seeing as this is a diluted amount and used on nails (low absorbency into out system), I do not believe this is a concern. - tocopheryl acetate- good old Vitamin E, great for softening skin and cuticles and when penetrates the skin (which it easily can) 5% is converted to free tocopherol and provides beneficial antioxidant effects ([...]); helps protect against ultraviolet rays when absorbed. On to (slight) concerns: it is a human skin toxicant or allergen (but with low impact as a whole); animal studies have shown tumor formation at high doses; uncertain environmental toxin (known as env. toxin, but with unknown effects). Basically, this is a modified form of Vitamin E, done so to improve shelf life, but which therefore sacrifices some quality and possibly takes on toxic effects. My final rating is 4/5- ingredients are sound (there is no way you can be 100% super natural/organic/non-toxic when it comes to something like nail polish); effect is good; packaging needs to be more strictly regulated.

No chemical/toxic smell. It removes my Essie Berry in Love perfectly well without diluting it and ‘reapplying it’ all over my nails and cuticles and cotton round first, like acetone does. (For all the ladies out there that like red/berry colors on their nails, like I do, you know how messy it is to remove red/berry polishes. No more messes with Karma Naturals remover). It works faster than acetone on my Essie nail polishes, no need to keep the cotton round pressed on the polish for the remover to penetrate the polish. A little quantity on a cotton round is more than sufficient to remove polish from 5 nails, (I keep my nails short because I like the 1930/1940s’ red polish look, longer nails might need more); therefore, the 4fl oz will last me some time. I think it will work great for ‘precise use’, to clean up little quantities of polish that I might inadvertently smudge on my cuticles or outside the bed of my nails during application, exactly because it does not dilute and redistribute the polish all over. It is powerful, more powerful than acetone, I can ‘feel’ it on my nails and skin after I use it and wash my hands but does not dry out nails and skin as acetone does. It cleans so well and so fast - and safely (apparently) - that it makes me want to change nail polish and try new colors more often. I do not know why it took me so long to discover it but it is one of those products that checks all the boxes for me and makes me want to say: finally! This is the remove that I will use from now on.

We ordered this product and my wife LOVES IT. Today, I was varnishing some doors and I couldn't remove the varnish completely from my hands (I applied it with a rag and bare hands). The varnish smell was also very strong. I asked my wife if there was anything I could use to remove the varnish leftovers from my fingers (about 4h after finishing with the doors). She offered me this "nail polish remover" and I am just AMAZED of how wonderfully IT WORKED. Varnish was all over my hands even after several times of washing them. After applying this remover, all the varnish and the smell went away. It left my hands with a light pleasant kind of neutral smell. Wonderful product. 1000% recommended.

Pros - 5 stars for organic bc clearly it is, it doesn’t have a smell at all and doesn’t leave your nails feeling dry after and as though there were chemicals on them. It worked after a little elbow grease being applied. Cons - it is VERY oily, but it is easily washable, the actual product works at a 2-3 star level. Eg There was clear polish still on parts of various nails after using it. It’s pricey for the small bottle you get.

I ordered two nail polish removers, and only received one. I wrote to them and they immediately answered and sent over another one. The PRODUCT is also AMAZING. It removes my nail polish easily, it doesn't dry out my nails as it has more of an oily feel, it DOESN'T SMELL TOXIC at all, barely smells anything (slight rose smell). Very satisfied and will be a return buyer.

le dissolvant de mes rêves, il a toutes les qualités possibles : il sent bon la lavande, pas d'odeur infecte, pas besoin d’aérer la SDB, quel bonheur! il fonctionne beaucoup mieux que les dissolvants classiques, avec ou sans acétone, et l'huile qu'il contient rend le geste très doux et agréable. Il me faut plusieurs cotons d'habitude, là, pas du tout : un tout petit bout bien imbibé, de petits mouvements circulaires sur l'ongle et le tour était joué. Je n'achèterai désormais plus que celui-là. A noter que je l'ai utilisé sur un vernis de la même marque, dont je suis super satisfaite également.

Takes more time and effort to rub the polish old, especially those that have been there for weeks.

Molto delicato. Ottimo per chi e' attento a usare prodotti non chimici.

Je cherchais un produit non toxique, traitant actuellement un cancer du sein. Si vous êtes habitué au dissolvant courrant, vous serez très agréablement supris! S'enlève hyper facilement et rapidement, ne sent pas, un réel plaisir! Laisse une pellicule grasse sans odeur, qui s'enlève en se lavant les mains et résultat impeccable, doux et tellement facile. Je l'adopte!
