The Urban Beauty Bar's VERY FIRST True & Falsies!!!!!!!




My nail polish is looking blah and almost dry. I was told to add a little nail polish remover into the bottle and then shake it all up to get a few more applications out of it. True or False?


********** FALSE **********

An important lesson I learned years ago was to NEVER, EVER use nail polish remover to thin your nail polish. Why is that? Well, if you are looking to thin your nail polish because it’s gooey and clumpy, then what you want is a nail polish thinner. Makes sense right? I know you’re shaking your head in agreement, yet most of you out there are using nail polish remover. Tisk, tisk!!


The common misconception is to use nail polish remover. The problem with that is quite simple actually. Nail polish remover contains acetone which is built to break down the components in your nail polish and will actually ruin your fav nail colour. Duh! Why didn’t you think of that, huh? Like I said, simple stuff.


So class....what did we learn today? When looking for a quick fix to make that favourite nail polish last longer, add a bit of nail polish THINNER and not REMOVER. It’s super cheap and really, are you looking to ruin that polish all together? I didn’t think so!

Cheers to beauty-ful days!
