"Glitter manicures are fun, festive, and always party-appropriate, but they may as well be super glue when it comes to taking them off. All the more reason to become an expert at removing every speck of sparkle (because really, who can get through the holidays without at least some glitter?). There are a few tips that will make the process totally painless and super fast, so grab your glimmering lacquers and don&amp;#39;t hold back. We&amp;#39;ve got you covered.\n\nAlways start with a base\n\n Before you even apply one swipe of color, put on a heavy duty base coat. You want something serious between you and your glittery hue. This will come in handy later, so don&amp;#39;t skip it!\n\nKeep your hands to yourself\n\n Once the color begins to chip, or you&amp;#39;re just ready to swap it out, don&amp;#39;t be tempted to pick. You can do some major damage to the face of your nails that way.\n\nGet soaking\n\n Once you&amp;#39;re ready for a full removal, grab a couple cotton pads (you can cut one into a few pieces\u2014you won&amp;#39;t need a whole one for each nail) and saturate it in nail polish remover. (This isn&amp;#39;t the time to try acetone-free, sensitive-skin formulas\u2014you need the heavy-duty stuff!) Now pop one onto your nail and wrap it up with aluminum foil so it&amp;#39;ll stay in place. Leave these on for a good five minutes before wiping away what&amp;#39;s left.\n\nSmooth off strays\n\n If there are still a few stubborn specks that won&amp;#39;t budge, it&amp;#39;s time to use a nail buffer. Gently rub it back and forth horizontally until the flecks fly off. Definitely don&amp;#39;t substitute a nail file for a buffer, though\u2014they&amp;#39;re way too abrasive and can scrape up your nails.\n\nGet back on track\n\n Your nails have just been through a lot, so now is a good time to give them a little TLC so that they can stand up to your next sparkly manicure. Try a fortifying base followed by a nourishing cuticle oil.\n\nNow you&amp;#39;re ready to start all over again. Pass the polish, please!"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
