The Anti-Anti-Glitter

With all the nail art out there it's a lot more fun to paint our nails and try new things- especially the glitter craze. Yes with different holidays suiting so much glitter it only makes sense to want to try it in every shade, shape, and form. Then comes the time to try and aimlessly remove every speck of glitter from tips and toes, and a grudge starts to set in. You know the one, the I-will-NEVER-paint-my-nails-with-glitter-polish-AGAIN! grudge? Yep, that's it! Well fear not! There is an unsung hero for nail art and glitter polish lovers everywhere! Dundada dun! Introducing: The Anti-Anti-Glitter: FELT!!!! Wait, what???!! Felt? YES, felt, ladies and gents.

    I recently tweeted someone's find on how using felt helps remove glitter polish and have tested the technique myself. Here's how to:

You need:

• 1-2 sheets of felt. This can be found at local craft stores for relatively cheap
• Scissors
• Small container to hold felt strips

Step 1: Cut felt into strips, about 1 inch wide. You get more if you cut them from the length of the felt.

Step 2: Cut long strips down into smaller strips- about 2-3 inches.

Ta-da! The perfect tool to remove glitter polish, just dab with polish remover and voila! I found that alternating between up and down and side to side scrubbing helped as well.

Hope this helps all of you out there who feel constantly caught up in a love-hate feeling with glitter polish. I know I'm certainly glad to have tried it! And hey, if you end up trying it and not liking it, you're only out about $1 right?

 Thanks for reading, see you next time! XOXO, Ashley
