Brake cleaner from the auto parts store, and its only about three dollars. Don't waste money on fancy cleaners.

Try shaving cream. I know it sounds weird, but someone told me to try it and I thought they were crazy. My daughter spilled fushia nail polish on my carpet and the shaving cream took it out completely! My carpet was a light brown, however, not a beige. Good luck!

This is one of those "sooner" than later situations. A similar thing happened with MY daughter. I used the nail polish remover to get the majority of the polish off. Then I used a product that allowed me to get the rest of the color off. If you are the least bit interested, let me know.

Try mineral spirits. Soak a paper towel w/mineral spirits and blot over and over again on the carpet.

I used nail polish remover on 2 occasions. Once to get black out of beige carpet and once to get blue out of beige carpet.

I did use the full strength and I dabbed, do not rub, and it all came out. We have no residual damage, I can't say if you will have residual damage or not.

I had red nail polish shatter on my beige rug, and it took a few days for the cleaner to get to me, since I had to order it off the internet. The stain came right out.
