it now requires an ID to remove your nail polish

Remember to take your ID with you the next time you want to buy nail polish remover, Because of the new policy at several pharmacy stores/CVS you are required to show a form of personal identification before purchasing products that contain acetone, which is an ingredient used in making methamphetamine.

CVS/Pharmacy issued a statement that reads:
Because acetone is an ingredient used in the illegal manufacture of methamphetamine, we recently implemented a policy that a valid ID must be presented to purchase acetone-containing products such as nail polish remover. Our policy also limits the sale of these products in conjunction with other methamphetamine precursors and is based on various regulations requiring retailers to record sales of acetone.

Personally I don't like this idea, because a lot of people under the age of 18 like to use nail polish, and this policy will make it inconvenient for them. What do you think ?
