How To Get A Perfect Pedicure
June 7, 2008
There are two great reasons to give yourself a pedicure; the first is to give your feet a well-deserved, pampering deep cleaning. While, the second reason is to get sexy looking toes for your summer sandals.
Begin pampering yourself by filling a wide basin or bucket with hot water to which half a cup of Epsom salts, a natural disinfectant have been added. Throw in a few capfuls of Johnson & Johnson Soothing Vapour Bath for Colds which contains rosemary, eucalyptus and menthol, three therapeutic, cleansing herbs that will make your room smell like a spa.
Before soaking feet remove all old nail polish. Rub olive oil into cuticles if dry. Using nail clippers, cut toenails straight across and smooth edges by filing the sides into a round or square shape.
Now, go ahead and soak feet in the hot water for 10 – 15 minutes. Smooth heels, including the balls of your feet with a pumice stone. Pat feet dry use the edge of a nail file to control cuticles by pushing them back. Then dip a nail brush in an exfoliating scrub to clean the area where nail meets skin. Rinse, dry feet and apply a generous dollop of super-moisturizing foot lotion or cream, massaging well into feet and calves. Rinse off moisturizer from toenails with soap and water and dry.
Now for making them look pretty. Separate toes with a foam toe separator. Apply one coat of base coat, two coats of colour and one coat of top coat. For summer, say good-bye to burgundies and browns, instead, say hell to hot, bright shades like coral with a sheen, hot pink or orange-red. Remove any polish that has missed the mark with a Q-tip moistened with nail-polish remover. Let your polish dry for a few hours before slipping on any close-toed shoes. Apply a coat of top coat three days after your pedicure, then every third day to keep polish from chipping.
Slip on a pair of sexy summer sandals that show case your perfect pedicure to perfection!
