I used to dread taking off my nail polish, so I would either (A) peel it off—I know, bad—or (B) wait until it was so chipped, I had no choice but to wipe it off. And, TBH, this dread makes complete sense! So many nail polish removers either smell awful, don't actually remove your polish without taking up too much of your time (or too many of your cotton pads), or leave your nails feeling extra dry and super weak. Thankfully, though, the nail polish remover gods have recently answered my prayers. Today's generation of removers won't completely ruin your life—or your nails—since they're filled with hydrating ingredients (think: aloe and almond oil), don't have any intense smells, and will remove your painted nails in a couple of swipes. Ahead, the 10 best nail polish removers that'll make the entire process an absolute breeze.
