Abstract
This application discloses a solvent based nail polish remover comprising 85.0 to 99.5% acetone or ethyl acetate solvent and 0.5 to 15% gelling agent, preferably hydroxypropyl cellulose acetate gelling agent. The gelled remover has a viscosity of 1,000 to 10,000 centipoise and possesses little odor due to the low rate of solvent evaporation when compared to acetone alone. The consistency of the gel allows it to be packaged in a collapsible tube to avoid breakage or spillage. The process includes the steps of adding the gelling agent to the acetone or ethyl acetate solvent after the addition of the other ingredients.
