Sometimes, it’s the simple pleasures in life that make us happy. Pampering, even for just an hour, can make all the difference. If you’ve never had a pedicure, or it’s been ages since the last one; you’ll agree it is the most soothing and relaxing hour you’ll probably ever spend in a salon. However, you can also derive the same pleasure at home. Wait until the kids have gone to bed; and proceed to your bathroom. Then, follow these home pedicure tips for moms.
- Light an aromatherapy candle, and place it on the countertop in your bathroom.
- Fill your tub with warm water. Add either Epsom salt or your favorite bath salt.
- Using cotton balls, remove old polish from your toenails with nail polish remover.
- Soak your feet for ten to fifteen minutes.
- Using a pumice stone to rub the heels and balls of your feet to remove dead skin. If you have a soft brush, you can use that as well.
- Dry your feet thoroughly.
- Cut your toenails.
- Using your favorite moisturizer, massage your cuticles and both feet.
- Gently push back your cuticles with an orange stick, and remove the excess cuticles.
- Massage your legs with the moisturizer as well.
- One foot at a time, apply clear nail hardener.
- Apply your favorite color nail polish.
- Apply a second coat of nail hardener.
- Add cotton balls in between toes until nails are dry.
- Use flip-flops if you need to walk around, or simply relax in your scented bathroom until nails are dry.
Wasn’t that a wonderful experience? Do you feel relaxed? Home pedicures can be just as soothing as going to a spa or salon; the only difference is it doesn’t cost anything except the price of a small bottle of nail polish.
