When losing weight or trying to maintain a healthy weight,
it is so important to take care of yourself and make yourself look
presentable. I used to think I would
wait to become skinny and perfect before I would buy nice clothes and undergo beauty
treatments, but I’ve found that beauty treatments help you feel good about
yourself, which is so essential to staying on the healthy eating wagon.
My husband tends to be a bit of a bean counter when it comes
to getting my nails, hair, lashes, etc. done every month. He thinks it’s a waste of money. Well if you have a penny pincher husband like
me, one way you can trim your beauty budget is doing your pedicures a su
casa. Here are some tips for doing a
presentable home pedicure.
1.
Go to Sally’s Beauty Supply or the like, and
pick up some decent polish. I recently opted
for the “Finger Paints” brand because it was a little cheaper than Orly &
OPI, but still in my opinion, solid professional polish.
2.
Get a good foot file. I prefer Ped Egg brand files because they are
cheap and reliable. Actually, I find
them to be more effective at scraping off dead skin than the salon buffers.
3.
******By some callus softner. One great brand is Heel to Toe from the Spa
Pedicure Collection. It works great. I think callus softner makes a huge
difference in stretching your beauty budget, it works as good as the stuff from
the salon.
4.
Soak your feet and push back that cuticle.
The result is flip flop worthy toes and money to spare for
your eyelash extentions.
