The Ultimate Pedi Experience from Your Home

Even at small nail shops you end up feeling the pinch of a really good pedicure.  A deluxe pedicure can end up hitting your wallet anywhere from $25 to $35 dollars.  If you need to perk up your puppies once to a couple times of month, trust me, it hurts.  But with a modest investment, you can have your own pedi experience in the comfort of your home for as little as $12 a pedi session.  Purchasing the equipment, foot bath and foot messager, will be a cost at first but with multiple at home pedicures it will well be worth the investment.

Here's How

1.  Get some warm water running.

You have some options here on how you want to do this.  You could simply fill part of your bath tub up with warm water (get a bath stool so you will have a place to sit).  Or you can get a large bucket like the Green Foot Detox Message Spa Bucket sold on Amazon for $18.42.  My favorite option is to use a foot spa that generates bubbles.  I like the HoMedics Foot Salon Pro for $69.99 (seen on right).

2.  Add some luxurious essential oils to water.

Again, lots of options with this one.  You can add tree tea oil, foot salts, or bath bombs.  My absolute go to hands down, or should I say feet down? are the Lush bath bombs.  Try out the Avobath bath bomb for $6.35.  If you decide to use the bath bomb, split the bath bomb in four parts.  You only need a quarter of a bath bomb to soften your feet.  

       

3.  Message your feet.   

Get some of the initial tension off of your feet.  Have the HoMedics Vibration Foot Messager with Heat ($19.88) relax your puppies for 5 min.           

4.  Soak and relax feet.

Soak your feet in the water bath with essential oils/bath bomb/salts for 30 to 45 min.  Bring something to read, watch some TV, or simply listen to some soft music and rest your eyes.

5.  Soften, Exfoliate, and Moisturize feet.

Take your pedicure to the next level!  While your feet are still slightly wet, rub Mary Kay's hand

softener on feet and in between toes.  Squirt two pumps of the Mary Kay smoothie hand scrub and message into feet, soles, and in between toes.  Rinse both solutions off of and completely dry feet. Moisturize feet using Mary Kay's hand cream.  The hand cream will keep feet feeling silky soft for up to 24 hours.  Mary Kay's hand softener, hand scrub and hand smoothie can be purchased in a single set, Mary Kay Satin Hands Pampering Set, for $35.00.  The set comes in peach scent or unscented.

6.  Prep Toenails.  

You can use a manicure set for this.  I like the Seacret Spa set for $59.95.  File, buff, and shine nails.

7.  Paint on your favorite nail color.

I like the fun and flirty colors from OPI.  OPI polishes are usually $9 per color.  

Now show off your fabulous feet!  For added luxury, you may want to play ocean sounds or you can use the HoMedics SoundSpa Portable Sound Machine for $17.97.  

You can also make your at home pedi a party experience.  Invite 3-4 of your friends over for a Spa Party!
