Polish Thinner, 4 fl oz (118ml)

I purchased this nail polish thinner for my mother in law - her favorite nail polish was discontinued in the early 90s and I've luckily been able to find her several bottles off of eBay -- however, because its is old it can get a bit thick, so I got this nail polish thinner for her to help with this problem. The only thing I wish that this nail polish thinner came with was an eye dropper or a pipette but for the price, that is okay. I have also used this nail polish thinner to help with the thickening of some older polishes that have gotten a bit globby -- simply add a few drops to the bottle ... wait a couple seconds ... then roll the bottle in between your hands if you are going to use the polish shortly or shake the bottle if you do not plan on using it immediately or right away. If a few drops does not work ... simply add a few more drops ... wait about 10 seconds ... then proceed to shake away until you hear the small ball bearings inside beat against the wall of the nail polish. Be careful to only add a couple of drops at at time as you don't want to make the nail polish you are trying to thin out too watery or useless. The nail polish thinner does have a strong odor, but then again it is a chemical, just be sure to use it in a well ventilated area and be sure to put the cap back on immediately. I would highly recommend that you do not use this nail polish thinner on a wood table or anything with a lacquer or finish on it - it will eat away at it immediately. Use this over a sink or put several towels that you do not care about down - just be very careful! Just like you would be very careful with acetone nail polish - use the same caution with the thinner. This thinner will help you to save money and keep your old polish just like new! It really helped to make old polish or polish that I hadn't completely tightened the lid on smooth and creamy again (almost like new but nothing is exactly like new). After using this thinner in one of my favorite polishes I was able to put up to three semi-thin coats of nail polish on my nails and they have looked really great for nearly a week and it has not begun to chip. The thinner came in a heavy glass bottle and there is plenty to last quite a long time. Overall I am very pleased with this thinner - I highly recommend it and once I run out, I will definitely purchase it again.

Just a few drops worked great and really thinned my nail polish. It’s a big bottle that will last forever. The nail polish was just about the right consistency after adding and was able to get more polishes out of really think nail polish I normally would have thrown out. Good idea!!! Worth it!!!

This nail polish thinner works great. I was worried that I would accidentally put to much in it and ruin my nail polish but the hole was small enough that it didn’t pour out. Just enough was needed to thin the polish to normal consistency. It also works on stuck on polish lids, just put a couple drops in between the lid and the bottle to wet all the way around and the twist the lid off. I still have a full bottle after thinning several polishes and unstickly their lids. Well worth the price.

This brought my goopy stringy $3.99 nail polish to pristine smooth glossy $12.99 nail polish. It’d be so much better with a dropper or pour spout, but the product works!!

This thinner works amazingly well. Just a few drops are enough to restore the perfect consistency to nail polishes that have become thick over time. It doesn’t change the color or finish, and it blends quickly. A little goes a long way, so the bottle lasts a long time. Perfect for anyone who wants to save their older nail polishes instead of throwing them away. Highly recommended.

Gets the polish thinned out perfect

I couldn't find a pipette so I just covered one end of a bendy straw and used that to add a few drops to my nail polish, haha. Not only has it fixed my favorite top coat, which had gotten thick and stringy because the bottle was half empty so the extra air made it start drying out, but it also fixed my favorite black polish that was an absolute dry chunky mess. I like my nail polish to be on the thinner side because it's easier to get a smooth coat so this is awesome to change the consistency where I want it. ALSO, I get irritated with nail polish since you can sit still and not touch anything for half an hour and your nails will still get dents and biffs because it takes forever to dry, but adding this to polish makes it dry much faster and it actually dries instead of getting gummy and getting dented. I didn't anticipate that effect but I assume it's from the alcohol and acetone in the product evaporating and improving the dry down of the polish. Super pleasant surprise.

Works well but doesn't come with a dropper. And the bottle is made of glass as well

Utilisé pour mes vernis secs il a fait le job

يوجد مخففات طلاء رائعة لكن لغير العاملين في مجال الصالونات وللاستخدام المنزلي فإن هذا المنتج بديل رائع.

Sooo happy with this buy. It works like a charm! Two thumbs up.

Have used it on all my nail polishes. Works great. Awesome product and long lasting. Worth the money spent .

I don't find this product offered in the nail polish section of stores any more because it prolongs the life of a bottle of nail polish. It works well but I would recommend it come with a dropper to help insert the product into a bottle of nail polich and to guage the amount being added.
