Homemade recipes to use for healthy and strong fingernails and beautiful feet!
1. Remove any old nail polish.
2. Shape the nail, using a file or emery board. File each nail tip from corner to center; do not file in a see-saw motion with the emery board because doing so can cause ridges in the nail and nail splitting. By filing nails to a point...this will make nails weak. A rounded or square form is the strongest.
3. Soak the hands in warm, soapy water for a few minutes to remove dirt. This will also soften cuticles and make it easier to push cuticles back. Clean under free edge of nail with orangewood stick.
4. The cuticle is the skin that grows from the finger onto the base of the nail (nail root). Push the cuticle gently back. Leaving the cuticle intact helps to prevent infection of the nail growing tissue. NEVER cut cuticles! This can cause the nail to die if done improperly!
5. Apply a base coat. We highly recommend calcium gel. This works wonders to help nails grow faster and hardens as well. Allow to dry for a minute or two. Next apply 2 coats of favorite polish. Then finish with a shine sealer. Allow nails to fully dry for at least an hour.
6. Finally, apply a moisturizing cream or lotion to the hands and cuticles. This will help prevent splitting of the nails.
Do it yourself manicure:
Do it yourself pedicure:
1. Exfoliate wet feet. You can choose to soak feet if you have time. This step will make exfoliating easier. Use a body or foot scrub. Scrub each foot for at least 5 minutes in a circular motion. Rinse well. Pat dry.
2. Apply moisturizer. This is a great time to give yourself as quick massage.
