I loathe sponge-type removers. They never seem to work well and I hate the polish residue left behind on the sponge. (Maybe it''s the OCD in me!) Meanwhile, this one is passable but I still would never buy it again. Smells pretty awful too. Contains acetate/acetone derivatives.

Works effectively at removing polish - must soak longer for glitters/chromes. Not as drying as some. Still contains acetone (and acetone derivatives). Inexpensive. Faint lemony scent but still smells like polish remover. Try not to spill it.
