Using SOPHi Nail Polish Stripper Gel
SOPHi nail polish is a waterborne polish that does not remove the natural oils on your nails, allowing them to stay strong and healthy. It can be removed within 1-3 days with rubbing alcohol. After this period, it becomes harder to remove, especially on dry, porous nails and toenails, and a nail polish remover is required.
The SOPHi Nail Polish Stripper Gel is specifically formulated for this purpose. It is a zero VOC nail polish remover that contains no solvents, making it eco-friendly and compliant with air pollution laws. The acetone-free, low-odour formula is also cruelty-free and vegan.
To use the SOPHi Nail Polish Stripper Gel, start by applying a generous pump of the gel to each fingernail on a protected surface. Spread the gel to the edges of the polish and let it soak for at least 1 minute. Use a paper towel to wipe away the nail polish. For hard-to-remove polish, repeat the process as needed.
For best results, use SOPHi Nail Polish Remover Sticks. These sticks are designed to lift and peel the polish from your nails after the gel has soaked through. You can also use a regular orange stick or cuticle pusher to push and scrape the polish off with the gel. If the gel dries before you're done, simply apply more gel until all the polish is removed.

Removing with an orange stick
Removing SOPHi nail polish with an orange stick is a straightforward process. First, prepare a protected surface and have some paper towels ready. Next, apply a drop of SOPHi Remover Gel to each fingernail. Spread the gel to the edges of the nail polish using an orange stick. Allow the remover to soak for at least one minute. You should see the nail polish start to lift.
Once the polish has lifted, use the orange stick to gently scrape and peel the polish away. Wipe the excess polish onto a paper towel. Repeat the process as needed for any remaining nail polish. It is recommended to work on one hand at a time to avoid the remover gel drying out and becoming gloopy.
For more porous nails, SOPHi nail polish can be more challenging to remove. To assist the removal process, try soaking your nails in warm or hot water, as the heat will help the polish to lift. You can also use a buffer or light nail file before applying the remover gel.
If you don't have a SOPHi orange stick, you can use a cuticle pusher or a wooden nail stick.

Using rubbing alcohol
SOPHi Nail Polish is a waterborne polish that does not remove the natural oils on your nails, allowing them to stay strong and healthy. This type of nail polish can be removed with rubbing alcohol, especially within the first few days of application. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to use rubbing alcohol to remove SOPHi Nail Polish:
Preparation
Before starting the removal process, it is important to work on a protected surface to avoid any accidental stains. Additionally, have the necessary tools ready, such as a paper towel, cotton ball, or nail polish remover sticks.
Application
On each fingernail, apply a generous amount of rubbing alcohol. Spread it evenly across the nail, ensuring it reaches the edges of the polish. Allow the rubbing alcohol to soak for about a minute. The soaking time is crucial, as it helps to soften the polish, making it easier to remove.
Removal
After the soaking process, use a paper towel to wipe away the nail polish. For any remaining polish, gently slide the slanted end of a remover stick or use a cuticle pusher or an orange stick to lift and peel it away from the nail. If needed, repeat the process until all the nail polish is removed.
Additional Tips
For harder-to-remove polish, especially on porous nails or toenails, consider soaking your nails in warm or hot water to assist with the removal process. The heat may help the polish to lift more easily. Additionally, using a buffer or light nail file before the removal process can also aid in softening the polish.
It is important to note that while rubbing alcohol is effective for removing fresh SOPHi Nail Polish, it may become increasingly difficult to remove the polish as time passes. In such cases, a specific nail polish remover, like the SOPHi Nail Polish Stripper Gel, might be necessary.

Soaking nails in warm water
Prepare the Warm Water Soak
Fill a bowl with warm water. The water temperature should be comfortable to the touch and not too hot to avoid any potential skin irritation. Ensure you have a comfortable space to work in, as you will need to soak your nails for a few minutes.
Soak Your Nails
Submerge your nails in the warm water and let them soak. You can do this by simply resting your hands on the edge of the bowl and allowing your nails to be fully immersed in the water. If you have longer nails, you may want to trim them slightly to ensure they are not damaged during the removal process. Leave your nails in the warm water for 2-3 minutes.
Prepare a Work Surface
While your nails are soaking, prepare a protected work surface to remove your nail polish. This can be done by simply laying out some paper towels or a soft cloth on a table or flat surface. You will also need a nail file, cotton balls, and some orange sticks or cuticle pushers for the next steps.
Apply SOPHi Remover Gel
Once your nails have soaked and are nicely softened, remove them from the warm water and gently dry them with a soft cloth or towel. Apply a generous amount of SOPHi Remover Gel to each nail, spreading it evenly across the nail surface, including the edges of the polish. Allow the remover gel to work for about a minute.
Remove the Nail Polish
After the remover gel has had time to work, use a paper towel to gently wipe away the nail polish. If needed, use an orange stick or cuticle pusher to gently push and scrape off any remaining polish. For harder-to-remove polish, repeat the process as needed until your nails are completely polish-free.
Soaking your nails in warm water is a simple and effective way to assist in removing SOPHi nail polish. By softening the nail polish and providing a gentle approach, you can effectively remove the nail polish while maintaining the health and strength of your nails.
