Acetone-free

Ebelin Nagellack Entferner Acetonfrei [Kokos-Duft] Review

By Maychiri's Thoughts - December 14, 2022

So, the last review, at last!

This is Ebelin's Nagellack Entferner Acetonfrei, variant Kokos-Duft (Nail polish remover acetone-free, variant coconut scent, in English).

Ebelin's acetone-free nail polish removers are generally quite good, and they are literally dirt cheap. I decided to get this one because I like the smell of coconut and the bottle was quite large, which would last me for a long time.

 

Packaging: plastic opaque bottle that is turquoise blue with a black cap. The cap fits securely so that there isn’t any unwanted spillage. This is a very basic design, but really, does it need to be excessively fancy?

 

Ingredients: sweet almond (Prunus amygdalus dulcis) oil for nourishment. No harmful ingredients nor parabens. The replacement for acetone is ethyl acetate. Despite not being acetone, ethyl acetate still dissolves various plastics so be careful not to spill it. The scent is extremely strong at first, smelling like most nail polish removers. After that initial scent evaporates you are left with a lovely, gentle coconut scent. The expiration date is 12 months after opening.
 

 

 
 
This is a colourless liquid that evaporates in an instant on nails. It does stays a while longer on cotton pads, though. It’s very easy to use, like most polish removers.

 

How well does it remove nail polish? Well, quite well, but I still find I need to rub my nails a bit to get the polish off completely. I am satisfied with how well it removes polish, though the best one still remains the Ebelin Acetone-Frei Express Remover.

 

 

It doesn’t seem to dry out nails a lot, which is most likely thanks to the almond oil. Of course, all polish removers dry out nails to some extent, but thankfully it’s minimal with this one.
 
 
 
In summary, this is a good nail polish remover. As good as most Ebelin removers, anyway. It removes polish with ease, although I did have to rub a little to completely remove it. My nails didn’t seem dried out from using this remover. And the scent is just so lovely: a gentle coconut scent that is so relaxing! Also, this remover is a great value for your money as it costs almost nothing yet you get this huge bottle that lasts a really long time! But, the Express Remover spoiled me, so now I expect every other remover to be as perfect as it is. Nevertheless, this is a good nail polish remover, so I will recommend it!
