How can you remove nail polish from your nails?

a metal embry board with the tip. or if you don't have that, try a toothpick Most dirt under nails comes from digging things up with you nails. But the most common way to get dirt under your nails is scratching. When you take a bath a scratch, lets say your arm or something, the dead skin scraps off into your finger nails. So don't scratch with your nails. try using the back of your nails instead. But the reason why I crossed off "try a toothpick" is because you can damage your tissue that connects the nail to your finger if you accidentally jab further then under the nail. You can clean you nails with your own nails while taking a shower. In short, don't scratch with your nails because it causes dirt to form. Which is usually dead skin. And the best way to get rid of the dirt is to clean daily, cut your nails short so the nails cant collect dirt (not to short, it will hurt). Try using a nail filer ( I think that's what its called ) so the white stuff of the nail covers any dirt, and if your a girl use nail polish to cover it and fix it later.
