Glitter Polish Removal

I started by testing the Bio Seed Weed Gel Unpolished Mask Remover on a glitter polish with a top coat. Glitter polish is notoriously difficult to remove, so this was a good test of the product's effectiveness.

I applied a generous layer of the remover, approximately a quarter of an inch thick, and let it sit for the recommended one to two minutes.

To my surprise, almost all of the glitter polish came off with a single swipe of a lint-free wipe. This was remarkably easy and efficient, considering the challenges usually associated with glitter removal.

Gel Polish Removal

Next, I tackled gel polish. I broke the seal of the gel and removed as much shine as possible, although using an e-file would have been quicker. I then applied a thick layer of the remover and let it sit for three to four minutes, repeating the process as needed.

After the first application, the gel started to soften. A second application was necessary to fully remove the gel polish.

The gel did soften and come off with the mask and some additional buffing. The multiple applications were more time consuming than the glitter or dip powder removal, but manageable.

Dip Powder Removal

Finally, I tested the remover on dip powder nails. Again, I started by breaking the seal and removing the shine. I applied a generous layer of the remover and let it sit for five to six minutes, repeating the process three or four times.

The dip powder removal was a more involved process than the others. It required multiple applications and buffing to achieve complete removal.
