I want to apply a top coat with a nail art brush to create shiny stripes over a matte polish, but obviously top coat don't come in nail art bottles. How do I clean off one nail polish brush to use it in another nail polish? I ask bc I know paint brushes usually coagulate under the faucet, I'd rather ask first before ruining a brush.

Answer
wash it in acetone or nail polish remover with acetone. Doing this alot can damage the brush, but occasionally should be fine.

I have a six month old and would like working in a little "me" time?

What is the best nail polish remover to use when handling babies. Im a single mom. So handing her off isn't so easy. And my skin seems to absorb things so fast!!

Answer
Why is getting your nails done every week out of the question? If it's a money issue, fine, but if you're worried it may harm your baby in any way it won't.

Anyway, I just use a regular remover and make sure I wash my hands well afterwards. They do make kinds that are non toxic, odorless, and hypoallerginic though if that is something you're looking into:
