Manicure and Pedicure

Oh, not today, Dear...I have a manicure appointment! Well, thats a convenient excuse to miss out on the household chores to spare some quality time at the beauty salon. And why not? Every woman today is busy running against time matching shoes with the work at home, work harder at the office and then take care of the kids. At this point of time one can only wish for a long weekend when everybody could unwind and do a little self pampering. Manicure and pedicures for ages are known to be done to take care of hands and feet that are usually ignored as contrary to the face. Manicure is a beauty treatment done with the use of cosmetics done for the hands and the fingernails. While a pedicure is done to clean the feet of dead cells and sweat accumulation that leads to smelly feet. To know more on it, read on.....

Manicure includes...

A manicure includes filing of the nail, polishing them and then applying a nail paint on it to give it the final look. Your hands are subject to thousands of soap solutions, mud and dust, lifting goods that may be heavy, using machine blades and many other things. In this process, you may end up chipping off your nail, getting a sharp cut on the skin or drying of the skin when using chemical based soaps. A manicure will help your hands get the much required cleaning of dead skin, filing of dirty nails to a shape more appealing and also massaging the skin soft and supple when touched. Manicure is done at the beauty salons by beauticians, using the most simple methods of service. Your hands are soaked in warm water with a softening substance to help the hand become soft and easy to clean. Then with the help of a manicure kit, certain tools are used that reach the corners of the nail to remove the accumulated dirt and then with a filer the nails are sharpened to a desired shape.

Pedicure includes...

Pedicure aims at easing out the tensed nerves that you feel when walking, releasing the pressure off the feet. A typical pedicure process would involve soaking of the feet in warm water with a skin softening substance, then scrubbing off the dead skin cells under the feet, cleaning of the nails and massaging the entire leg for a soft skin appeal. This process does not take more than an hour of complete massaging and cleaning of the feet. Nails are then filed as desired and polished to shine, finally painting the nails completes the process of pedicure.
