After spending months at home, you've probably tried your hand at a DIY manicure. And now that warm weather has officially arrived, it's time to tackle your toes.
While it's a bit more involved than a manicure, an at-home pedicure doesn't have to be intimidating -- this beauty treatment is easier to nail than you might think. All you need are the right tools, a few ground rules and just a bit of patience.
To recreate the experience you'd get at the salon, ET Style has broken down the art of the DIY pedicure into three steps: clean, prep and paint. Follow these steps for a thorough, long-lasting pedi that you'll want to show off with those sandals you just scored on sale.
Below, ET Style's guide to a no-fail at-home pedicure.
Step 1: Clean
The perfect pedicure starts with stripping your toes down to their natural beauty and soaking your feet to soften any dead skin, making it easier to scrub off.
Step 2: Prep
Roll up your sleeves -- now it's time to trim, file, scrub and moisturize.
Step 3: Paint
There's more to this step than choosing a pretty shade of nail polish! A base coat and top coat will work together to make all of your hard work last.
