Pedicure at home
The summer is approaching. Very soon it will be possible to wear open shoes and sandals ... Especially timely at this time, careful care for nails on our legs. A pedicure in the salon is, of course, great. But there is not always time and money to visit the master. Therefore, we learn to do pedicure at home!
Pedicure is not only beautiful, but also healthy. Regularly taking care of the feet, we will never know what natoptyshi, ingrown nails ...
So, where does the pedicure begin at home?
First of all, you need to remove the old varnish from the nails. The nail polish remover really damages the cuticle and nail plate, so we try to use it in minimal amounts.
Now it's time to prepare our legs.
To soften the skin of the feet, you need to make a warmfoot bath. In the bath you can add soap, essential oils, sea salt. The legs relax, fatigue goes away, and in her place comes a feeling of comfort and appeasement ...
When the skin is properly steamy, you can start processing stops. It is necessary to remove the dead skin particles so that our heels again become pink and smooth. You can use pumice stone, a special brush or a scrub for feet.
After the skin is processed, rinse our feet with water and apply a foot cream: nourishing, softening or moisturizing. After 20-30 minutes we can proceed with the pedicure itself.
First of all, we move the cuticle of the specialspatula. This is to ensure that the toenails can freely "breathe". By the way, the skin at the base of the nail plate will grow more slowly if it is carefully moved away from the corner of the towel immediately after taking the foot bath.
Cut the cuticle can not - it can trigger skin inflammation. Now we can cut off our nails. It is enough if the edge of the nail protrudes beyond the finger by 3-4 mm. And it should be remembered that the nail of the big one should be cut in a straight line to avoid its ingrowth into the finger. To process nails with a nail file follows as well as with manicure - the movement of the nail file is directed in one direction.
After the nails are processed, they can be coated with colorless or colored varnish. Do it carefully, all the extra smears afterwardscan be removed with a cotton swab dipped in a nail polish remover. If desired, the nails can be decorated with a pattern, rhinestones, special stickers. Choosing the color of varnish for a pedicure, it is important to remember that it must be in harmony with the rest of the image.
The procedure for pedicure should be repeated regularly,even if the defile in sandals in the near future is not planned. The frequency of the procedure is chosen by everyone, based on the speed of nail growth, the degree of skin roughness, etc.
Well, that's all - a pedicure at home is ready!
