2x2 cotton sponges
For polish removal–gauze is best, paper towels are second best. Gauze is sometimes hard to find, but well worth it. Sometimes you can find them in the local beauty supply, or your local drug store in the first aid section, but it is easier and most economical to order them on the internet from a dental supplier. You do not need sterile gauze, these are very expensive at the drug store, and just not worth it. If you order them, order 2×2 (inches), non sterile cotton gauze pads. These pads are much better than cotton balls, because they do not leave the stringy lint that gets into your polish no matter how hard you try to keep it out. Their texture allows for much easier polish removal as well, they are like a scrubby sponge. Another alternative is pads that you can purchase at any drug store, they are sold as lint free, and indeed they are, however they are SO thin and smooth textured that it takes a lot of them to get the job done. Even if you have to purchase the pads in bulk from a dental supplier, you will find lots of uses for them around the house, especially in your first aid kit.
