nail polish

Question

I was wondering whether the reason nail polish is ok on for going to the mikva has to do with the fact that it doesn't bother the woman (she wouldn't wear it otherwise!) Also, on a practical level, is there a mikva lady who will let a woman go in with nail polish on? Thanks in advance

In most reasonable neighborhoods you can tell the Mikveh lady that your Rabbi permits it, and they'll leave you alone. AA
