"To get ready for your next nail art design, you're going to have to remove all of the polish, the nail art and the polish included. You're going to remove it from all ten nails. You want to make sure that your cotton ball is saturated with enough acetone to remove it even from around the edges. I'm going to make sure that it's not so saturated though that it will make the polish run onto the finger. Use different areas of your cotton ball once you get an area soaked in color; you're not going to want to put that on an actual finger, because it will turn the finger the color of the polish. If you see that your cotton ball has color all the way around it, go ahead and just get out a fresh cotton ball. I'm just going to again, saturate it with acetone and pick up where you left off. When you've got polish and nail art on a nail you can usually get three to four nails with one ball of cotton, depending on the size of the nail. Someone with super long nails is obviously going to take more. I'm going to make sure our acetone is closed in case it spills; it's not going to get on anything and ruin it. Once you have removed the polish from all ten nails, you want to just go back and double check, make sure that there isn't any polish left on any of the fingers or the nails or the cuticle area. And that is how you remove polish to get ready for your next nail art design."
