Nail Polish Remover - without the stink or the toxins?? Possible and True!

I have to admit that at first I was skeptical.

Nail Polish Remover that doesn’t smell, that’s soy based and will actually remove nail polish?  Not to mention that it’s organic, and not harmful to you, your skin, or your nails.  Really?

I removed the lid from the Karma Organic Unscented Nail Polish Remover and expected something, anything.  A fragrance, a slight smell, but there was nothing.  Not a thing.  No scent at all. 
Okay, there was no fragrance in the Unscented but how was it going to work?  The first few swipes nothing happened.  “Aha,” I thought, “I was right; this is NEVER going to take this polish off.” But it did.  And in record time!  Once through those first few swipes with the organic cotton round the polish was gone!  Vamoosed, a thing of the past, never to be seen again!  And the soy oil left my cuticles feeling pretty darned good too.   Not dried out or damaged, just soft and supple.  Nice.

Nail Polish remover has always been a pet peeve: damaging, smelly, and guaranteed “bad” to put on your nails or to touch your skin.  But what was a girl to do when she wanted to have great looking nails with colour?  Thank goodness for the people at Karma Organic and their so savvy use of the humble soy bean.

What other ingredients can you expect in Karma Organic Unscented Nail Polish Remover?  Propylene Carbonate, which is an organic colourless and odourless liquid used as a solvent, Tocopheryl Acetate, also known as Vitamin E, and, of course, Soybean Oil.

Karma Organic Nail Polish Remover is available in three configurations:  Lavender scented, Tea Tree scented and Unscented.  And, as if that weren’t enough, the smart people at Karma Organic also made it 100% biodegradable, non-toxic, non-carcinogenic, free of any petroleum ingredients, derived it from farm crops, and they then packaged it in 100% recyclable glass bottles.

Wow.  What’s next?  Why organic Nail Polish, of course.  Stay tuned.
