Express pedicure: what is it and how is it performed?
Many girls like to do their own pedicure. But at the same time, not everyone has enough time to make it efficiently and beautifully. In this case, you can arrange a special and quick express pedicure.
Description
Express pedicure is a quick pedicure that takes no more than 0.5 hours to create. At the same time, such a procedure, just like the standard one, involves softening coarse areas of the skin, removing the old varnish coating, giving the desired shape to the nail plates, painting with new varnish. Express pedicure can be done in a short time using special cosmetic preparations. It is they who allow the process to be carried out much faster. In addition, fast-acting emollients are used for this type of pedicure.
How to do?
To make an express pedicure at home on your own, you first need to carefully lay out a plastic bag or film on the floor. Lay the fabric on top. For this, it is better to take cotton material.
The fabric is thoroughly washed with a special agent called "Mozolin". It will help to get rid of calluses and calluses on the feet in a short time, as well as significantly soften dry skin of the heels.
The wetted material should be firmly applied to problem areas that require maintenance. Wrap everything on top with cellophane or plastic wrap and leave it that way for 15 minutes. After this time, carefully remove the cellophane and cloth with the product. After that, using a file or a pumice stone, carefully remove areas of the skin already softened by "Mozolin". Then rinse the treated feet thoroughly under water. Moreover, it is better not to use detergents.Dry your feet completely with a towel.
Afterwards, moisturize the washed and dried feet with a special nourishing cream. To do this, you can use a special cream that comes in the same series with the emollient "Mozolin". Such a composition perfectly stimulates the healing of cracks in the feet. It also promotes the renewal of the skin on the legs. After that, if necessary, correct the shape of the nail plates. This can be done with nail clippers or a nail file. Although many experts argue that this is not necessary when performing an express pedicure. At the final stage, you should choose a suitable nail polish color. They are carefully painted on the plates. Then, if you wish, you can decorate them with additional elements and shiny rhinestones.
