Ahhh. A pedicure. Pure luxury. But pricey. If you’re on a tight budget, why not try giving yourself a home pedicure? It can really lift your spirits, and will make your feet look like a million bucks.

First, get out a nice big basin, and fill it with warm water. Add your favorite bath salts, and sit yourself down in front of the TV, or with some music on. Relax.

Once you’ve soaked your feet, you can take them out of the water, pat them dry, and then use an exfoliating foot scrub. If you don’t have a scrub, mix a little olive oil with sugar or salt, and use that instead. Then wash, and re-dry your feet.

Next, while they’re still soft, push the cuticles on your toes back, and trim your nails – remember – always trim them straight – cutting into the cuticles will result in ingrown toenails! All that’s left to do is add a slick of color, and you’re good to go with your DIY pedicure.
