- First remove your old nail polish with a non-acetone nail polish remover with a cotton pad.
- Buff feet when dry, not wet. To really shift dead skin. Use a sturdy foot file and focus on the heels, balls of feet and edges of toes.
- Soak your feet in a tub or basin in the worm water you can put soaking salts or bubble bath for 10 minutes.
- Massage feet briskly with a foot scrub to get rid of the last dregs of dead skin, then rinse.
- Dry your feet and gently ease back your cuticles with a cuticle stick.
- Cut your nails straight across with nail clippers. Make lots of little snips, rather than all at once, or you might break your nail.
- Use a nail file to gently round the edges of your toenails so they don't snag your tights.
- Massage your feet with a rich foot cream.
- For the ultimate treat, apply foot lotion before bedtime, wrap them in cling film, then add some socks and hop into bed. Wake up to dreamy-soft soles!
- If you want to add some colour, wipe off the foot lotion from your nails using a damp cotton wool pad. Then add a base coat, two layers of polish and a high-shine topcoat.
- For a low-maintenance finish adds a coat of stain corrector which instantly brightens your nail tip and makes the nail bed pinker and prettier.
