How to make your own thinning solution and light removal liquid for manicure cheaply

Thinning liquid means that when the ingredients of manicure volatilizes and thickens and becomes muddy or when it separates it will make the color somewhat thinner, but it will become resurrectable and become usable . Removal solution is a remover that drops manicure. Recently it has been sold even in uniform shops such as 100 yen so it may not be so expensive, but the amount is small anyway.

That's why I tried asking people who are making manicures how to make thin liquids and light removal liquids for manicure cheaply. Approximately 1 liter will be completed from 800 yen to 900 yen.

Details are as follows.

This is a thinning solution for nail polish and a light removing liquid


So this time we use acetone. What kind of thing is this kind of thing.

Acetone - Wikipedia

Acetone is an organic compound widely used as an organic solvent and is the ketone of the simplest structure. In the IUPAC nomenclature it is expressed as 2-propanone. It is an amphiphilic colorless liquid and dissolves water, alcohols, chloroform, ethers, most of the oils and fats well. Because it has high volatility at normal temperature and it has strong flammability, strict precaution is necessary for fire during handling.

Although it is a main component of nail polish remover, acetone has a strong degreasing property, which may degrade nails, and nonacetone type light removal liquids are also on sale.

Therefore, acetone is the main component of the light removing solution. For now, it can be diverted to diluted solution. However, since the volatility is extremely high, if you do not take enough space in the container, the bottle cracks with the pressure of volatilized. It is dangerous to put it in a bottle with low strength and fill it.

When nail polish liquid, light removal liquid and diluent are put in the container as a whole, acetone and ethyl acetate of the ingredients are easy to vaporize even at the temperature around the body temperature, so if there is no space above the bottle, the vaporized gas There is no escape place of the bottle, the bottle can not endure the internal pressure and it may rupture.

The commercially available light remover is composed of acetone, acetic acid ester, other solvents, fragrances, dyes, water, etc., but it is mostly acetone as a component. So, you can substitute with acetone only. If it is made in Japan it is not written up to the ratio of blending because there is no obligation of ingredient labeling, but if it is overseas imports it is crowded with extremely small letters. Among the products sold in Japan, it seems that in fact there are many cases that imports products manufactured abroad and hides them with a label from above. If you heat the seal with steam, actual ingredient breakdowns etc. written in English from below will come out.

In addition, the diluting liquid is of a type called "diluent", and its main components are butyl acetate, ethyl acetate, etc. That said, in fact, acetone itself will dissolve the organic solvent well, so it will be a substitute for diluting solution. However, it sometimes solidifies in some cases. In that case you can purchase ethyl acetate at the pharmacy OK.

Where does Acetone sell the problem? It is said that it is sold at cheap at the home center. This time I bought it in Cornan. It is about 800 yen to 900 yen in 1 liter. Even if it sells at 100 yen uniform shop, there is no possibility of 100 cc, so the profit rate is very high, the light removal liquid and thinning liquid are. It is almost a bottle fee and a signature. And using this acetone can also be used for brushwashing when the ingredients are volatilized and hardened when painting nail polish. It can be used in a very versatile way. As one truly there is 1 liter, it is almost equal to the whole lifetime, so it would be more realistic to jointly purchase people who use nail polish with friends etc. and subdivide them in tough bottles and so on. Bottles for these subdivisions are also sold in various sizes at home centers, which are quite durable.

In addition, if you want to create a more authentic and more authentic version rather than such a simple one, you may find the component ratios etc when you search overseas pages. However, if it takes time and effort to buy it, it is cheaper and bought more quickly .... If you decide to shoot by acetone only, as it is something that has little time and effort, it is still relatively expensive is. Even if I do not use it, it seems like a bean knowledge that I do not have losses ....
