Pedicure at home: bath

Foot care starts with a bath. But before that remove previous coat from your nails. Choose a pedicure place where you fill comfortable. For example, you if choose the bathroom, then:

• put chair in the bathroom;

• take some magazine / crosswords / bestseller;

• fill a basin with warm water;

• add to it sea salt. As a option: usual salt, grated soap, soda, Penn bath, chamomile, St. John's wort, calendula tincture, essential oils;

• drop foot in a basin for about 15-20 minutes and enjoy not doing anything.

Your Feet are soak and you take yourself interesting reading. The water will cool, so do not forget to pour into the basin hot water. You can also do little feet massage right in the water.

Home Pedicure: peeling

Blot feet with wet towel and apply a special scrub. Massage your feet paying particular attention to problem areas (heel, lateral surface, pads, fingers), wash with warm water. Then use a pumice stone. If it is both-sided, or you have another pumice stone, apply stiff side to the rougher areas of skin and soft site to more gentle skin. Skin near the nails can also be removed using non-metallic nail file or rough brush.

Remove the dirt under the nails. The best way to do it - use a wooden stick. Put feet under running water, remove the separated particles of skin and dirt.

How to pedicure at home properly: cuticle

Apply a cuticle special mean to soften her, wait a few minutes, then slide it with a stick or a spatula to the bottom of the nails. We don't recommend to cut it: firstly because an infection, and secondly, there may be burrs, which will add a completely unnecessary inconvenience.

How to pedicure at home. Moisturize feet skin

Wash feet after all the procedures, dry and apply a massage movements:

a) moisturizing or nourishing cream - if the skin is dry,

b) the deodorant - if you have a problem with excessive sweating and odor

c) a tonic effect - if you feel heaviness in the legs.

Massage your feet: the cream will be absorbed faster.

Pedicure at home: Nails

Start cropping nails only after 20-30 minutes (!!!) you applied the cream. The reason is simple, but very serious: giving the shape with scissors or a nail file to wet nails, you can cause them to strain and a bundle! You can trim toenails with nail scissors or using tweezers. Try to get a straight line, but not rounded - this will prevent the ingrown toenail.

Trim sharp corners and irregularities with the file. It is beautiful from aesthetical side and your socks and tights will be safe. Nail file can be operated only from the edges of the nail to the center, but not on all sides.

Homemade pedicure: Paint varnish

First, degrease the nails with nail polish remover, then paint is applied evenly and stay strong. For convenience, use the separator for the fingers, then you will not have to worry about uncured lacquer wears off at their contact.

Apply to nails clearcoat (with any therapeutic effect) firstly and then, if you wish, 1 or 2 layers of colored lacquer. When choosing colors follow by several rules:

• lacquer on the hands and feet should be the same

• feet lacquer may be a few shades darker

• lacquer tone should be in harmony with the clothes and footwear, or accessories

• manicure and pedicure subjects should be the same

Be beautiful!
