20 Things to Do With Your Old Nail Polish
Do you really use all of those jars of nail polish in your dressing table drawer, or are you just leaving them there until they dry out and you won’t feel so bad about throwing them away? That electric blue or dark brown color looked cool in the jar, but on your fingers….not so much. So what now? Let them go to waste? Toss them in the trash and make landfill? Don’t do anything drastic - because you can still use ugly nail polish.
