Treat Your Feet to a Relaxing Pedicure


If manicure is for hands, then pedicure is for feet. Popular mostly among women, it is an external therapeutic and cosmetic treatment given to the feet by means of cleaning, scrubbing and filing the toe nails. Perhaps, the most over-used part of our body is our feet. The only time one would give rest to them is during night when we go to bed. The feet which toils so much for you, needs some pampering too.

Types of Pedicures:

These days spas and salons are offering various pedicures depending on the requirements of the customers. Surprisingly, most women are not aware of the various types of pedicure treatments that are available. Take a look at some of the most popular types of pedicure.

Regular Pedicure: This is the most common pedicure which involves soaking of the feet in warm, scented water for some time, followed by scrubbing, trimming and filing of toenails, and massaging the feet. The procedure is completed by applying polish to toenails.

Mini Pedi: This is same as regular pedicure but the time taken is less. People who are short of time could opt for this procedure.

Paraffin Pedicure: The feet are dipped into the wax or paraffin is brushed over the feet after a thick coat of moisturizer is applied on to the feet. Later, when the wax dries it is peeled off. This procedure is best suited for people with dry feet, as paraffin is believed to be a great moisturizer.

Stone Pedicure: In this type of pedicure, oil is massaged into the feet and lower legs with hot stones. Stone pedicure is more of a massage pedicure.

French Pedicure: Similar to regular pedicures, French pedicures are the most popular ones. Here, in addition to the regular pedicure, the toenails are either left natural or covered with pink polish. White polish is applied to the tip of the nails, while a clear polish is covered throughout.

In addition to the above, there are few unusual pedicures such as chocolate, wine & margarita pedicures.

Whatever be the type of the pedicure, the undeniable fact is pedicures are a must indulgence for your feet.

Dungarees initially started off as a men’s wear. Further when women made themselves equal against men, their fashion statement also got updates with women starting to wear dungarees. Till date, it has been a ‘must’ in every fashion -conscious woman’s wardrobe and is completely worth having. It goes on all kinds of body shapes like apple, pear, and hourglass and so on. All you must check on is the style. Some women look great with shorts styled dungaree, some with long ones and some with skirt styled dungarees.    One of the best combinations is to sport a white plane crop top and a typical light blue, ripped-jeans dungaree.
