Try this swissvax leather healer but you will have to order the color code that matches your seat leather

Any "pics" of it would help to see the situation ?
Not sure but i would "very carefully" try with nail polish remover ,and when your bamboo beige comes with off, i would order like edu09 said above, the swissvax leather healer with the right color code (Novillo/ bamboo beige match ) !
BTW...you can always replace your seat and sent the bill of invoice to your girlfriend !

acetone or goof-off from your local discount store. use a Q-tip and use it like a scalpel. There is a chance that what top coat sealer and dye has been softened will blend back in and you may never notice. To be safe like others have said Swissvax is good and leatherique makes a good one also.
Side note, I hope you are milking this one for all the fringe benefits you can "wink"

Would avoid acetone or associated chemical as they are likely to damage leather. Try rolling leather with your fingers in attempt to make the nail polish crack and peel off. Could try making it cold with ice pack but do not introduce moisture. Alternatively soak in something like Leather Masters foam cleaner and very gently attempt removal with plastic razor blade. Go very slow to avoid removing leather coating and then dye from seats. Leather Doctor makes stain removal kits, pricey but safer.

Take it to a professional (auto upholstery shop).

LOL -- ya she knows how anal I am about my car and was traumatized more than me when I discovered it.

I'll checkout the swissvax. I started rubbing on it with vinegar and I think the coloring was being removed. It also looks like she had rubbed with her nail on the seat and took off leather color already cause it looks like dirt but it would not clean.

The swissvax healer will cover it, dont try any chemicals or you will make it worst

It's very small pieces and doesn't appear to be thick enough to catch on nails or anything.
