Ok… well a couple of weeks ago I wore blue fingernail polish for prom. Well a couple of days ago and my fingernails were yellow. I thought that it would go away but it is still there. I dont know what to do. Anyone have any ideas?

    It could be fungai, or the polish probably left a yellow stains. I dont know but i would be very worried. Thats just me.

    next time put a clear coat of polish on first before you put on any other color.

    get a fresh lemon and stick the nails into the flesh , twist around a couple of times . that’s what i do when i forget to put on a clear coat of polish , to get the yellow off!

    Do you usually wear dark colors of nail polish?
    If you don’t, then it is probably that your nails were not ready for the dark color.
    Next time, try a lighter shade, and prep your nails for the darker color.
    At this point, it would be best to just let it run its course
    hope this helps

    Your nails are stained from the polish you used. Buff your nails. That should remove the stains.

    i think nail polish remover would help a-bit.carefully rub it very hard.

    This happens a lot when you use dark colour polish. Try soaking them in water with the juice from a lemon. If that doesn’t work take two denture tablets and dissolve in one cup water. Dip your nails in the mixture, and they should turn white instantly. Next time you use a dark colour try using a base coat (L’Oreal makes a really good formaldehyde-free one).

    wait 48 hr soak in dish soap and table spoon bleach for 30 min each hand then peroxide 5 min

    This should be a good lesson not to use fingernail polish period, not only is it very unclassy, it is soooo bad for your nails.

    wipe your nail with nail polish remover

    Your fingernails are yellow because you had nail-polish on them for too long. You need to let them breath. I suggest giving yourself a manicure. Buff and smooth the nails very well. Do not polish them for at least a week.

    before you paint your nails a dark color, always apply clear polish first. There is something in the dye that stains your nails.

    A simple home remedy is (LEMON). Simply soak your nails in lemon and then use a new toothbrush to brush all the smaller areas and underneath your finger nails. GOOD LUCK!
