L'Onglex is a brand I bet some of yer Mammies have used. Recently relaunched, this beloved old brand has had a makeover (they're now so modren they're even Twittering) and comes in super pretty bottles that wouldn't look out of place on the dressing table.
Pink is for acetone-based and purple is for the acetone-free version - you choose which kind you like. If you've got gel nails or need a heavy duty remover, pink is for you. But if you need something a little gentler choose the acetone-free purple bottle. Both cost a weeny €3.69.
See now me and nail polish remover have always had an uneasy relationship. Obviously I have to use it because I like to do my nails. But no matter which brand I tried it always dried the feck out of them. I always went for acetone free versions cos they're kinder to nails, but even so there was an inordinate amount of cracking and splitting.

I was therefore both relieved and surprised when I used L'Onglex. It's an oily formula that promises to nourish nails - and it actually does it. Takes off varnish easily with no rubbing and scrubbing - and no nasty splitting apres remover. Thumbs up (french manicured ones of course).
Yet another example of mammy knowing best. But don't tell her I said so.
