Priceline and Nail Polish Removers

I absolutely love Priceline! For me, it's the ultimate form of retail therapy, just being in the store makes me feel happy!
For those who have never heard of Priceline (shock horror!), it's basically an awesome health and beauty retailer! What would make it more awesome is if they sold OPI.

Anyway, when I discovered there was a new Priceline at the Westfield on Pitt St, i immediately dragged Marina to explore it! Westfield Pitt St is different to other Westfield's. Every store is bigger and more beautiful than its sister store at another Westfield. Priceline is no exception!They had two aisles dedicated to Sally Hansen!! Enough said!

I discovered these two items at the new Priceline and i had to buy it:
Sally Hansen Hard as Nails Xtreme Wear Nail Polish in Disco Ball 
Sally Hansen Kwik Off Salon Formula Nail colour remover

I'll probably do a post about Disco Ball at another time, for now, I really want to talk about Kwik Off.
Despite it's cheesy spelling, it's a really good nail polish remover! 



It's basically a sponge in a little tub filled with nail polish remover. There's 3 "holes" (more like slits) for you to insert your nails, twist them around..and voila! Almost all your nail polish is removed! I found that it had trouble removing the polish on the lateral edges of the nail, where the nail meets the cuticle, but since there was residual nail polish remover, one wipe with a cotton pad got rid of the remaining polish.
The only down side to Kwik Off is that it contains acetone, which is probably why the nail polish comes off so easily.
If you have no problems with some acetone in your nail polish remover, i'd definitely recommend keeping one of these handy! it's saved me a lot of time (and cotton pads).
I bought mine for $9.95 at Priceline, which is a bit more pricey than other nail polish removers, but It's way more effective and I'm expecting it to last a lot longer.

Have you tried Kwik Off?
