How can I manicure and pedicure at home and make my hands and feet look beautiful,any tips ?

First you want to soak your hands or feet (plain water is fine, but I like to add a little lavender oil) for about five minutes. Dry them off. Clip and file your nails (file from side to center, not side to side - that can make your nails break) and push back your cuticles gently. A cuticle conditioner, available at most beauty supply stores, will help with this if your cuticles are overgrown or very tough. Next you can clip the cuticles (ONLY the white part that comes off when you push them, as this is dead skin. You can skip this part if you like, pushing cuticles is usually enough). After that put some lotion on your hands. Before you polish dap a little polish remover on your nails to remove the oils from your skin and the lotion. This helps the polish stay better. Always put on a clear coat first, just in case your polish will stain. Between mani/pedis, you can push back your cuticles with a towel after a shower (when your skin is soft) to keep them looking clean and neat. And when I don't wear polish, I make sure to buff my nails smooth to get rid of ridges. I'm sure any employee at any beauty supply store would be willing to help you with products. The essentials are the clippers, emory boards, and a cuticle pusher (use one made just for this, because I've cut myself up using other household items). Hope that's not too much to digest!

Make sure that you clean your hands, cut your nails, file them. Straight across for toenails to avoid ingrowns and whatever you want for your fingers. Use nail varnish remover to take off any oil from your nails and for your feet buff them with a pumice stone etc. Apply moisturiser to hands and feet. Apply a basecoat. Wait to dry. Apply two coats of your desired colour making sure you've waited for it to dry and finish off with a topcoat.





Retouch the ends with polish and use a topcoat to keep your nails looking shiny.

Well you can get a mani and pedi homekit from a store and then rub lotion on your hands and feet to make them look silky and pretty
the key is to exfoliate the skin first on hands %26amp; feet. use a sugar or salt scrub on both, with warm water, to get the dead skin off. then clip the cuticles or hang nails you may have so that you start off w/ smooth hands %26amp; feet. then clip your nails nicely so that they're all even %26amp; file them to make them even more perfect. then polish as desired. simple.
well first get the nail polish you want, i donno if you want to use pink white, black or whatever. then take tape and put it on the tips of your fingers and pink the white part before that dries rip the tape off so it doesn't mess it up. then put nail polish on a q-tip and touch up the white part. then take your pink or orange and paint the rest of the nail, you can go over the white it helps keep it on longer. don't put too much of that pink or orange on it will fade the white. then you can do the little line right across under the white, i love to use black, this is really bad you have to be really steady to do this.
