You're gonna need:
* empty (nail polish) bottle
* acetone
* cosmetic oil (it can be almond, olive oil ... mine is almond make-up remover oil)
Empty your bottle on a piece of cardboard. Wait for the polish to dry and then throw it away.
Pour acetone in your empty bottle. You don't have to fill it all the way, half full is OK. Shake it, shake it, shake it (...like a polaroid picture). =) Empty the bottle by pouring acetone on a cotton pad and wait for the bottle to dry.
Now we have clean and empty bottle. Fill it with your chosen oil once the bottle has dried.
Voila! There's your cuticle oil!
I also removed the original sticker. Here's another tip for you: DON'T use your nails to remove it. Believe me. =) Use tweezers or something similar. Nails aren't tools!
I'm such a smart ass... *rolls eyes* =)
And to answer my own question. I'm 25 years old. Some of you got it right, but I just didn't want to ruin it for the others. =) Thanks for playing!
Thanks for looking!
You are a brave girl! I would never ask people to guess my age for fear of someone shattering my fragile ego! lol
ReplyDeleteHoly crap! You look way younger than me. *sigh* *calls derm for botox appointment*
ReplyDeleteOoh thanks for this neat DIY!
ReplyDeleteAnd really?? 25?? You look younger! That's a good thing though, isn't it? :)
=) My ego is already shattered, so no worries here. ;)
ReplyDeleteThank you! =) I've been hit on my guys who thought I was this little young girl...only to find out I'm a few years older devil =)
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome! =) That's a good thing, yes. Except when 8 years younger guys decide to hit on you.
ReplyDeleteI"M SO SORRY!!!! Happy Birthday Late!!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tip! I use Lush Lemony Flutter or cuticle oil from Boots. :)
ReplyDeleteYou look really young, cherish it! :D
I'm really glad you posted this since I've been wanting to franken some colors, but was unsure of how to clean out an old bottle of polish. Thanks!
ReplyDeletehappy bday dear and I hope you spent it nicely!!! very best wishes! <3
ReplyDeleteMuch cheaper than buying cuticle oil. Some nice fragrant almond oil.
ReplyDeleteNo need to be sorry. Thank you! =*
ReplyDeleteThank you, Solveig!

ReplyDeleteNeat idea! I've been to my local beauty supply store and I thought about making my own from a couple of oils, now I know what I can do for it, thank you - I didn't get your age right at all, haha! I'm glad you gave us the answer though :)
