Bourjois Magic Nail Remover vs Nails Inc Express Nail Polish Remover : Two Holy Grails...




Why has no-nails february turned into all-about-nails blog month? Maybe my way of dealing with no spending on nails is talking about them as much as possible. Or maybe I just have too much. Here we have two of my favourite nail products ever created, and for once its not polish but remover!
Most of you will have heard of the Bourjous Magic 1 Seconde Pot, but not many people seem to be familiar with the Nails Inc alternative.

Both go by the same concept: stick your finger in, give it a twist and voila! nail polish no more. And yes, they really are as good as they sound. I didn't believe it at first but was converted after one use! They don't irritate your fingers either, they feel a little drying for a second but that soon goes away, and if you doo have dry hands it's nothing drastic that a little hand cream wont sort out straight after. They both smell delicious too! Just one word of warning - don't use these with glitter - it won't work and you'll end up with a glittery finger every time you use it after that.

Now for the comparison. Both are the same size and retail for around £5-6 depending where you buy, although the nails inc is generally a couple of pound more expensive unless you get a good offer, and you can often get the borjouis on 3 for 2 in Boots or Superdrug. In terms of packaging, which doesn't reeeeaaalllly matter, the nails inc is much nicer (the borjouis somehow turns white as you can see). Most importantly, on terms of which is better at removal, I have to hand it to nails inc. It's softer, smoother, lasts longer and generally feels nicer to use. I actually enjoy it! I feel like a bit of a wierdo now. It doesn't get less effective over time as quickly or noticeably as the borjouis does and seems to remove tougher nail polish with much more ease. Saying that, I had the borjouis for a long time before I was given the nails inc and I thought it was the best thing since sliced bread until then! 

Whichever you might choose, you HAVE to try these. Trust me, your life might just change. Well slightly at least. Now I have these I'll never turn back to cotton wool again for my fingers, but these won't work unless you have crazy toes that are as long as fingers. On the plus side, there is news of borjouis releasing a toe version soon which I am very excited about!!
Enjoy!!!


Lots of love,
