Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Things You’ll Need:
- Large Bowl
- 1/2oz Bath or Sea Salts
- 1 TBSP Olive Oil
- Pumice Stone
- Toenail Clippers
- Cuticle Pusher
- Lotion
- Fingernail Polish
Step1
Fill bowl with warm water. Add Salt and Olive oil. Soak feet for 10-15 minutes. The salt will help soften your skin while the olive oil adds moisture.
Step2
While feet are still soaking, remove one at a time and use Pumice Stone. Carefully remove as much dead skin as you can. (this should not hurt)
Step3
Remove feet from water and towel dry. Using Toenail Clippers, trim nails into a square shape and gently push back cuticles.
Step4
MOISTURIZE!! Do not leave out this step. Gently rub in moisturizer and let sit for about 2 minutes.
Step5
You're now ready to apply polish. Apply a base coat and two coats of your favorite polish, followed by a top coat. Let your nails dry for at least half an hour.

on 7/24/2008 You know, this seems so simple, but I admit to leaving out or flubbing a step or two. But here you've got the whole oedi thing all laid out perfectly, and I swear, if you do this as a routing, you will have beautiful feet!
