This Week: Budget Pedicures
While most of us can agree that nice spa pedicures are relaxing and enjoyable, they are often prohibitively expensive. Enter the budget pedicure storefronts popping up all across America in strip malls and downtown areas. Usually, you can get a pedicure here (a "spa pedicure" even) for under $35. As summer sandal season nears (thank the goddess!!), your toes might need a little polish, trim, and buff.
Of course, another option is to do your own home pedicure. If you can lock your door against the grasping hoards and hide away somewhere, this can be your best option. The Budget Fashionista has some great tips for home pedicures and manicures, including properly soaking your feet, using a pumice stone to smooth rough skin, and of course buying emery boards to file those nails. Now go forth and paint those piggies, ladies!
