Quick tips for pedicure
1. Remove any old nail polish thoroughly.
2. Soak your feet in warm water for 10 to 15 minutes. Add Epsom salts or any other commercial foot soak.
3. Clip your toenails straight across using a toenail clipper or scissors. Clipping straight across will help prevent ingrown toenails.
4. File the toenails to smooth any rough edges.
5. Push back your cuticles. Use a cuticle moisturizer if they do not push back easily after soaking.
6. Massage your feet with a moisturizing lotion. Use an exfoliating lotion if the skin is dry and/or roughened. Use a loofah or pumice stone on roughened areas.
7. Separate your toes. Put cotton between your toes, or use a ready-made device for pedicures.
8. Apply a base coat and give it time to dry. 9. Apply polish, cleaning up any stray marks with a cotton swab dipped in polish remover. Add a second coat for deeper color.
10. Complete the pedicure with a top coat of clear polish

MEN AND BEAUTY TIPS
I’m sure that many men will read the title , roll their eyes,and continue browsing through this article looking for something a little more ‘manly” to read. I mean, “Beauty” tips for men, who’d have thought it? No one really uses the words ‘beauty tips’ and ‘men’ in the same sentence do they? But what many of you men out there may not have realised is that this topic is no longer as taboo as it was, say, five or even two years ago.
Today, more and more men are expressing an interest in fashion, facial cleansers, aromatherapy, manicures and even waxing. Gone are the days when a shower, shave and the monthly haircut were considered the ritual grooming techniques for males.
What can I say, times are indeed changing. But for you men out there, who are still a bit “shy’ about venturing into the mysterious world of good grooming, why not try out a few of these tips, which are guaranteed to turn a few heads and boost those egos a little bit more.
