At-Home Spa?
My mom says pedicures are too expensive; but I really want to get one. Can you give me some tips on giving myself a pedicure?

–Pedi Please!
Why not grab a group of friends and have a pedi party?! You’ll need a few things to get started—nail polish remover, cotton balls, nail clippers, your favorite polish, toe separators, and a nail file. (Your mom may already have these around the house.) Remove any old polish first, and then clip and file your toenails straight across so they’re nice and even. Then soak your feet (try the bathtub) in warm water for 5 to 10 minutes. Then take turns giving foot massages with your favorite lotion. Next it’s polish time—using toe separators so your polish won’t smudge, of course. Make sure to give your nails plenty of time to dry before putting on shoes or dancing around the house!

At home Spa
I have to admit, I have had the same thing happen to me before! At home, we bought a face mask, and we pulled out a foot thing, and nail polish and your set!! :)Pedicures
I do this all the time with my friends!!! It is so much fun and much better than going to a Salonawesome

I love that idea! I may just have to vall my friends and schedule that right now!!!Good Idea!!
Thats a good idea!!! I what to try that, it sounds so cool!!Sorry This Is Sorta Off Topic But...
I have ingrown toenails (or that’s what I think they’re called.) And they hurt soo much! I never go to nail salons anymore because my toes are so sensitive.. Does anyone have advice on how to get rid of them?Awesome!!!
That is so cool with your friends it will probably be even better than a spaHave you ever painted your nails before?
Why don’t you just paint your nails. It’s pretty much the same thing I guess.OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That is sooooo… stinkin’ cool!!!!!!!!!!!!! I wouldn’t have even thought to do the bathtub thing. also they have a good point! Friends make everything better!!!!! B) ;) :)Nails
if you don’t have any tools all ready go down to your local gas station and look in all the ails until you find some nail tools(It’s a good way to help local buisnesses)At home spa
Do it all the time! Even got a foot tub with heat for B-day!my personal expierience.
Cool i have done the same thing . it was a spa birthday party . Also once i was at a girl named ashleys house. we took every buble bath, lotion, bath bomb and any thing that looked fun and we put them in the tub. then we put our feet in . as we were waiting we put on face masks and had a buble fight. most girls at my school only likr her because shes popular but i know the real her . we took time to get to know each other and bonded over our love for spa days!!!Do your nails.....YOURSELF!
First, grab the clippers, and get clipping! Second, file your nails until they dont have raggedy edges. Third, Pick a bold polish, and do your toes!Spa
So creative. Great idea! (:AWESOME
