Ebelin Nagellackentferner Express Acetonfrei Review
By Maychiri's Thoughts - March 09, 2025
Oh, I am happy to finally review this! This is the Ebelin
Nagellackentferner Express Acetonfrei!

This is the OG Ebelin Express Remover, that they have by and
large replaced with the one with White Flower Scent. The first time I bought
this remover it was because I liked the idea of just dipping your finger into
the bottle and the nail polish (seemingly) magically disappearing! Of course,
it’s not magic, just very clever design, but it still sounded brilliant. Now,
let’s finally get cracking, and see what this remover is all about!

Packaging: rounded plastic bottle that is quite large. The
bottle is a deep fuchsia colour, which goes great with the black. There’s a
sticker that has all the information about this remover and a helpful pictogram
so you know how to use it. The cap is black and closes really very tightly, so
that it doesn’t accidentally spill out. This also keeps the liquid from going
bad too soon. Really good looking packaging, overall!

The liquid is colourless, and it evaporates very quickly on
the nails. But, inside the bottle, it stays liquid, below and all around the
sponge.
I mentioned there being a sponge... indeed, that is this
remover’s special feature! The sponge sits inside the bottle, permanently
soaked in remover, so it always feels moist. And it stays soaked for literally
months, until you start to use up some of the remover. The sponge is super
soft, which makes it suitable for even the most sensitive of nails. Because it
is so soft, there isn’t a lot of friction that could cause splitting on the
nails. The right way to use it is to simply dip your finger inside and then
swirl around for a while, and presto! The nail polish is removed almost
instantly because of the gentle friction
created between the fingernail and the sponge. See what I said about it
sounding like magic? It’s a truly ingenious system yet one so deceptively
simple!

And indeed, the name “Express Remover” is more than apt;
this nail polish remover is extremely good at removing nail polishes of all
kinds! If it’s a typical glossy nail polish, all you have yo do is swirl around
with your finger inside for a few seconds and it will be completely removed,
from both the nail and the sides and the cuticles! If it’s a more shimmery nail
polish, though, you will have to use a bit more elbow grease, but they, too,
typically are removed within 30 seconds, which is still a ton easier than what
a standard remover would offer. Glittery nail polishes are the hardest to
remove in general, but even they don’t stand a chance to this powerful remover!
Although they certainly require more time and effort to remove, but again, it
much easier and quicker compared to a standard remover. This is true magic in a
bottle! Miracle! It simplifies the whole process so much that it becomes
child’s play, and it’s actually fun swirling my fingers inside the bottle,
hearing the liquid sloshing about!
And best thing? My nails never feel dried out or brittle after removing nail polishes with this remover! Partly, that's thanks to there not being acetone in the remover, but remember, this is enriched with rice bran oil. I do believe that this is the secret ingredient responsible for caring for the nails. Oh, and don't worry, this oil doesn't get in the way of applying nail polishes since it evaporates quickly. I still wash my hands after using the remover anyways, just in case.
I will say, though, that the sponge begins to suffer the
less remover there is in the bottle. If it dries out, it is prone to crumbling,
but this doesn’t typically happen until at least a few months into using this
remover. But once it does start, the sponge slowly crumbles, bit by bit,
becoming in the end too thin to effectively use. This is a sign it’s time to
replace the remover.
Pro tip: if a nail polish is being particularly stubborn and
doesn’t want to be removed, you can just take the sponge out of the bottle and
manually press it against the nails to remove nail polish! This is a simple and
effective way to remove, eg, glittery nail polishes without damaging the nails
too much!
Overall, a truly wondrous nail polish remover that I, so
far, haven’t found a match for! It’s just that brilliant and fantastic and...
use whatever superlative you can imagine, it is that! The system of a sponge
placed inside the bottle with a hole in the centre, which is permanently soaked
in remover is an ingenious one! So simple, yet so effective! The sponge is what
creates friction between your nails and the remover, but it is so gentle that
nails stay in great condition after removing polish with it. Never before have
I had a nail polish remover be so gentle, yet so powerful like this one is! No
nail polish can survive this remover; some may try to resist, but a couple more
swirls and they too, fall. It makes short work of even the most glittery of
nail polishes, so now I don’t have to feel anxious wearing shimmery/glittery
nail polish for fear of my nails suffering when it’s time to remove it. And not
only does it remove nail polish expressly, it also hydrates the nails, because
it has both glycerine and rice bran oil. I cannot stress this enough – this
nail polish remover is literally perfect! Perfect in every meaning of the word!
It’s my go-to remover, one that I keep coming back to for years now. However,
it has been replaced with a newer version; check out how good that one is here!
This nail polish remover gets my top recommendation – it’s a superhero among
removers so it more than deserves this! S+ tier!
Rating: 10/10
Would buy again? Absolutely YES (shame they have replaced it
with the newer one)
