Pedicure.... At Home!

In our busy schedule, we don't get time to take care of ourselves and our body. Moreover, going to a beauty parlor for even a pedicure costs us a lot. But now you can give yourself a pedicure every week at your home!

Just follow these simple steps and legs will look awesome!

1. Remove old colour using acetone or any other paint reoving liquids.
2. Soak: Add espon salt and your favorite scented oil (I prefer Lavender) to warm water and soak your feet for 10 mins. You can add bubbles for a special treatment to yourself!
3. Buff : Dry your feet with a clean towel. Then, exfoliate feet and heels with a biodegradable pumice pad, which can be puchased at any drug store. Rub in any direction you want , but don't scrub too hard and never rub the top of your foot. Make sure to get you heel, the bale of your foot and your big toe. Thoroughly rinse the pad after each use, let it dry and keep it in a plastic bag.
4. Exfoliate : Remove dry skin from legs and feet with a homemade mixture of olive oil and kosher salt or raw sugar. Or choose a srcub. Rub in an upward motion two to three mins. Then rinse them in your foot bath.
5. trim : Cut nails with a toenail clipper, then file them to yourlenght of choice. Make sure not to go too short though.
6. Moisturize : Massage feet and legs with a rich cream. (Recommandation: Nivea foot massage cream)
7. Soften : Apply cuticle oil to nails to soften and revitalie rough areas.
8. Push: Use a cuticle or popiscle stick to press cuticles back so they don't get in the way of polish.(Unless you are a professional, don't cut cuticles as there is a chance that you could bleed yourself.)
9. Polish: Apply a base coat first,then apply two thin coats of polish. Finish with a top coat.
