Abstract

Abstract An improved nail polish bottle cover having a nail polish remover dispenser incorporated therein is provided and consists of a body member having an elongated neck with a chamber within for holding nail polish remover. A nail polish applicator is affixed to and extends away from center of the internally threaded base of the body member so that when it is threaded onto a threaded neck of a standard nail polish bottle the nail polish applicator will extend into the nail polish. A nail polish remover applicator extends from the nail polish remover and through the neck of the body member to be applied to finger nails for removing nail polish. A cap is hinged to top of the body member neck to protect and seal top of the nail polish remover applicator when the cap is closed.
