Many women love the luxurious and glamorous look of long nails made of acrylic powder. Acrylic powder nails are usually brushed and bonded very quickly to your natural nails with glue. When it starts to peel off or has thickened from repeated coatings, it’s time to take it off. Here are three methods that show you how to remove acrylic nails: soaking in acetone, filing by hand, or using dental floss.
Steps
Soak Nails in Acetone

Cut your nails short. Use a nail clipper to shorten the acrylic nail. Cut off as much of the acrylic nail as possible. If you have difficulty in this step due to the thickness of your nails, use a coarse file to file them away. But be careful not to file the nail as it will bleed.
File the coating on the nail surface. Use a good quality nail file sponge to file the polish and try to file this acrylic nail as much as possible. Filing long lines the length of the nail is best.
Pour acetone into a bowl. Pour into about half a medium-sized acetone glass bowl. Some people prefer to warm the acetone by placing the bowl of acetone in a larger bowl of warm water. Never put acetone in the microwave or use it near a high heat source. Acetone is extremely flammable.
- Make sure your room is well ventilated and ventilated, as acetone evaporates very strongly.
- Never light a cigarette near acetone.
Apply Vaseline to the skin around your nails. Acetone can break down plastic and also have a bad effect on the skin, so it’s better to protect your hands. This step will help protect your hands from being irritated by the acetone, especially if you have a mangosteen scratch.
- Pay attention not to apply too much vaseline on the nail, so that the acetone can affect and dissolve the nail powder.
- A cotton swab can be used to accurately sweep Vaseline onto the skin of the hand.
Soak your nails in acetone. Take a few cotton balls soaked in warm acetone, then place the cotton pad on your fingertips. Use foil to wrap the cotton pad tightly onto the acrylic nail. Next, let your nails soak in the acetone for about 30 minutes.
- You can also use non-plastic tapes to wrap in case you don’t have foil.
- More simply, you can also soak your nails in acetone if you’re sure it won’t irritate your skin.
Remove the foil and cotton pad from your fingertips. The cotton pad will pull the acrylic nail layer and come off easily.
- If you’re soaking your nails in acetone, use an orange stick to pry the nail off and gently remove the nail polish.
- If the acrylic nail polish is still firmly attached to the nail, repeat the above soaking process for another 20 minutes and try removing the powder again.
Use a soft sponge to file away any remaining acrylic nail polish. Now that the acrylic powder has become softer after being soaked in acetone, you should use this opportunity to file them away. If during the time of filing the acrylic layer becomes hard, use a cotton pad soaked in acetone to soften it.
Reshape your natural nail. Use a nail clipper and file to smooth the edges. Use the pad to gently wipe your nails from the base to the tip.
- To avoid damaging the nail, you should only clean in one direction, avoid pulling the saw.
- It is possible that the top few layers of the nail surface have been removed with the acrylic. Be careful during the cleaning process to avoid tearing or damaging the nail.
Restore moisture to your hands. Acetone makes the skin of the hands extremely dry. Wash the acetone off with soap and water. Then pat dry and apply lotion, olive oil or moisturizer to restore your skin.
File Acrylic Powder Nails
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/d/d3/Remove-Acrylic-Nails-Step-10-Version-8.jpg/v4-728px-Remove-Acrylic-Nails- Step-10-Version-8.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/d/d3/Remove-Acrylic-Nails-Step-10-Version-8.jpg/ v4-728px-Remove-Acrylic-Nails-Step-10-Version-8.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:259,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:410,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Cut your nails short. Use a nail clipper to shorten the tip of the powder nail. Cut off the powdered nail as much as possible. If you have difficulty in this step due to the thickness of your nails, use a coarse file to file them away.
Nail files. Use the hard side of the nail polisher to file the acrylic nail. Remember to only treat one nail at a time, filing until the acrylic nail is just a thin layer over your natural nail. Continue to sand down the Acrylic layer as much as possible.
- You can completely use the file method until your nails are almost clean of the Acrylic layer. But if you’re worried about your nails getting damaged, stop. Trying to file away the powdered nail polish can also wear down your natural nail bed and cause long-term damage to your nails in the long run.
- If you are determined to remove traces of acrylic nail polish, then proceed to the next step.
Use a nail pusher to pry the edges of the acrylic powder nails. Once you’ve picked up the edge of the nail, put the tip of the scissors in and start trimming away the acrylic nail polish. Continue doing this until the acrylic nail polish is completely removed.
- Repeat the above process with the remaining nails until the acrylic nail is completely gone.
- Pick and cut the powder nail layer bit by bit. If you do it too hard, it can cause your nails to flip or damage your natural nail.
Nail polish. Use the nail polish tool to remove the last traces of acrylic nails. Reshape your natural nails with nail clippers and files. Restore nail quality with a cuticle softener and moisturizer.
Remove Acrylic Powder Nails with Dental Floss
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/1/1f/Remove-Acrylic-Nails-Step-14-Version-8.jpg/v4-728px-Remove-Acrylic-Nails- Step-14-Version-8.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/1/1f/Remove-Acrylic-Nails-Step-14-Version-8.jpg/ v4-728px-Remove-Acrylic-Nails-Step-14-Version-8.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:259,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:410,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Find a support person. This method of removing nails requires an extra person to help you, as this method will require both hands to pull the floss underneath the powder nail.
Pry the bottom edge of an acrylic nail up. Using a skin pusher, gently slip in and lift up the entire bottom edge of the nail bed.
Ask someone to help you insert the floss into the bottom of the nail you just pry. The support person should sit across from you, pull the piece of floss placed under the nail slot that has just been pry, with both hands firmly grasping the ends of the thread.
Your support person will start by pulling the thread back and forth under the nail powder. Ask to slide the thread while pulling it forward, this will cause the nail powder to gradually peel off. Continue to repeat this sawing motion until the acrylic nail has peeled off and is completely separated from your natural nail.
- Tell your partner not to pull the thread too fast; You don’t want your natural nails to wear off with your acrylic nails.
- Repeat the process with the remaining nails until the acrylic nail is completely removed.
Nail polish. Use the polisher to clean your nails, it may be a little damaged during the above treatment. You can restore nail quality with a cuticle softener and moisturizer.

Completed. Your nails are clean and no more traces of acrylic nails.
Advice

- The simple nail file method should only be applied when your natural nails have grown longer than the acrylic nail polish.
- You can buy a specialized Acrylic Powder Nail Removal Kit at the pharmacy.
Warning
- If removing the nail causes pain or the nail remains stuck after repeating the operation, stop and go to the nail salon for advice.
- Always keep acetone away from fire or high heat sources as it is highly flammable.
