Part of it's the cold sweat you endure when you know your mom's going to ask why the whole house smells like nail polish remover and there's a huge white spot on the rug in your bedroom. Most of it's basic physics: a liquid absorbs heat energy from its surroundings when it evaporates. Nail polish remover evaporates quickly. If it landed on your skin, you'll feel cold.
