Do it yourself pedicure at home, No need to book an appointment, you can give yourself a salon-quality pedicure with these easy steps:
1. Remove all polish. Trim and file your toenails.
2. Buff nails smooth with a nail buffer.
3. Massage cuticle softener around the nail contour.
4. Soak feet in warm water for 10-15 minutes (or take your shower or bath).
5. Push back cuticles with a cuticle stick and remove any debris or dead skin from beneath and around the nail.
6. Apply moisturiser to feet, followed by a swipe of nail polish remover to prepare the nail.
7. Apply your base coat, followed by nail color, followed by top coat.
8. Remove any errors with a nail polish remover pen and don't worry, any polish on skin will come off with your next shower.
The next day, apply cuticle oil all over your toenails, it will moisturize skin around the nail bed and help your polish last longer.
