Abstract: The present invention comprises several variants of means for facilitating hand removal of a nail polish cap from a nail polish bottle. One variant of the present invention comprises a free-standing, reusable grip placed over at least a portion of the cap of a nail polish bottle to assist in opening said bottle when it would otherwise be difficult to do so by hand without a grip. A kit containing several of these grips can be provided by my invention. The present invention further comprises a cap made of one material with grips of a different material integrated therein. The present invention further comprises a cap made either entirely or mostly of grip material. The present invention still further comprises a nail polish bottle having either a cap with integrated grips or a cap made of grip material.
