What are some solutions to getting my nails back to normal, and how to prevent this from happening again. Please be specific and please HELP! Thanks
Will putting on other polish over it to hide the stain seal the color in?

    You really have to wait for it to come off. But there is this one special kind of soap called Fast Orange….you can get at stores like Werhung’s, Home Depot (I think), and other hardware stores. It isn’t a normal hand soap. It will get anything off! To stop this from happening again, don’t use that nail polish. Use a nice quality Jordana Nail Polish. (www.bestbeautyonline.com)

    Use fingernail polish remover, if u have none, u may have to file it off with a fingernail file.
    Better luck next time.
    Next time put clear under the color.

    Quite simple actually: Get yourself a buffer and lightly buff off the top layer of stained nail. You want to do it gently and don’t buff off too much or too often. After getting off the stain, to avoid future staining always use a base coat polish before applying any color. This should solve your problem. If not, give it a few times of doing this over a month or two. If it still does not resolve, then I suggest seeing a doctor to make sure it is not a fungal infection.

    just leave it. the stain will fade. next time you use polish, put a base coat under it. that’ll protect the nail. i’ve also heard to use some lemon juice on your nails as well. don’t paint your nails until the color fades. it’s going to look funny, but your nails need to breathe.
