Q: I have the KISS glue on nails that I need to get off. Does this stuff work on those?

submitted by Melissa - 6 years ago
  • A: Tried it with Kiss glue and my nails won't budge.

    submitted byGinny - 4 years ago
  • A: I use Kiss naill glue, I always pop the nails off (never have any problems getting them off but if you do you can get "Glue Off" to help remove them) and then remove the glue residue with this.

    submitted byHClapp - 3 years ago
  • A: Hi Melissa – Thanks for asking. This nail polish remover is designed to remove artificial nails or gel polish and glitter from natural nails. Have a great day! - Phonsavanh

Q: is this product 100% acetone?

submitted by Mimi - 6 years ago
  • A: Yes it is 100% acetone and it works GREAT. Cleaned nail glue off my nails in 5 minutes.

    submitted byHClapp - 3 years ago
  • A: NO this isn't acetone. This product is useless.

Q: How many times can you use a container? Since the polish comes off inside the jar, will it become less effective after multiple uses?

submitted by Karen - 5 years ago
  • A: Hi Karen- This nail polish remover is hard to determine how many time's it can be used. It all depends on how much it is being used. It does hold 9 ounces of Acetone remover. Thanks for asking. -De'Lisa

    submitted byDeLisa - 5 years ago
    Target staff support
  • A: Depends on the polish (chunky glitter, dark polish, gel, etc.) and nail length. The acetone will get dirty and bristles will bend. You can also dump and replace the acetone and clean the bristles too.

    submitted bysarcazm - 4 years ago

Q: Does this have a bristle brush inside of the container to help remove the polish?

submitted by Mama of two - 8 years ago
  • A: Yes! This remover pot has bristles all around the inside to help remove tough polishes and glitter. I use this to remove dip powder and acrylic powder nails and the brush is so helpful!

    submitted byDIYDarlin22 - 8 years ago

Q: How do I open the pot? Apologies if that's a silly question, but neither I nor anyone I've asked for help from can get the cap to budge

submitted by PlebeianGoth - 1 year ago
  • A: Hi, PlebeianGoth - Thanks for asking! Push down on cap while simultaneously twisting it counterclockwise to open. If you've tried the push-and-twist method without success, it's possible that dried nail polish may have sealed the cap, in which case you could try running the cap under hot water to loosen any residue. Have a great day! - Rob

    Never recommend this product

    This is hands down the worst nail polish remover I have ever used. I usually buy nail polish removers in bottles but tried this for the first and last time. The bottle was not sealed properly and ruined my entire purchase even though it was double bagged. The remover ate a hole in my carpet in my car and was so poorly packaged that I would never recommend this product. Spend the extra $8 and get the olive and June remover instead.

    Sponge type is better

    Doesn’t work any better than regular acetone. On top of that it’s a mess to use because it also leaks a lot. Should be the sponge type instead of all plastic

    Powerful chemical; use with caution

    I found this product too painful to use. The smell is very strong, and the liquid acetone would be better served in a sponge container. A full tub of liquid made this dangerous to open, and burned my fingers.

    I’ve never been able to get dip off my nails without going to the salon but decided to give this a try and it worked great. You need to file all of the clear coat before you use this. Just like how they do it at the salon. I think the bad reviews are from people who did not do this.

    Couldn't try it

    The lid was stuck so tight that myself, my coworkers, and my husband were all unable to open it. Even though it was shipped to me, it has to be returned in store, the nearest being almost an hour away. Dissapointed but not worth the cost of the drive to return it.

    Cant open and expired maybe?!?

    I biught 3 on 4/9/26, I cannot get a single one open of the 3. They all have a date on the side 1/30/26. I’m not sure if that’s the made date or the expiration date. Either way I can’t open any of them and plan to return all 3. Such a shame. As you can see in the photo I tried to pry the jar open with cuticle cutters. Nothing worked.
