    Get 10 cotton balls, saturate w/ nail polish remover, have someone help you rest them on your nails & leave for 5 minutes. If the stain doesn't come out right away, rub the cotton balls on the nails for a little while. Good luck! :)

    Don't worry, this happened to me before, too. I painted my nails green and then they were stained that way. =S Thankfully, it was only the tops of my nails that got stained, so all I had to do was wait for my nails to grow a little bit, and then filed them. But what you need to do is rinse your fingernails under hot water, then rub your fingers over the nails that are stained, and then in roughly two weeks the polish will come off. If that doesn't work, then paint your nails with a clear polish, and it will conceal the stain, and then when the clear polish starts to pick off, the stain will come off with it. =)

    Take a some lemon juice(even the RealLemon brand in the bottle) and some hydrogen peroxide 1/4 cup:1/4 cup ratio and immerse your fingernails for 10 minutes, rinse off WELL and try the nail polish remover again...it should take it off. Always wear 2 coats of base coat when wearing dark polishes to avoid this happening again.

    The best thing to do is to just leave it. If the nail polish remover isn't getting it out then I don't think any other product will. Hope this helped and sorry about your nails.

    It usually happens when you use a low quality nail polish without a base coat. Next time use a base coat it will protect your nails. Try rubbing lemon juice on your nails and the tint will go away quicker

    Try using Hydrogen-Peroxide on them. Before repainting your nails, though, add a layer of Hydrogen-Peroxide. I read that in a magazine before.

    You can't just paint them with a pale nail polish.
