If your toes have seen better days, but you can’t get to the nail salon in the near future, you don’t have to wear socks all the time or forego fashionable sandals as the weather warms.
It’s relatively simple to DIY a pedicure at home if you have a few tools. You’ll need nail clippers, a file, a base coat, a top coat, and some pretty springy polish at the very least. Other items, such as a foot bath, cuticle oil, and a foot file for removing calluses, are optional but appreciated. You can still get a long-lasting, professional pedi without these extra items, but they make the beauty treatment more therapeutic and improve the overall results.
