Take some cotton and dab some nail polish remover, now place the cotton balls so that it covers your nails completely. Scrunch it at the end in order to make it stay for some time. Open the cotton balls after five minutes, and remove the left over nail polish with the same cotton balls. Once done with removing old nail polish, wash your feet. Now, dry your nails and start filing them in one direction. Continue this till your nail tips become even and smooth.
