Dry pedicure - a complete procedure for foot care and nail, but without the use of water. From now on, no set-top boxes, "spa", and thus the same good result as in the classic pedicure and enjoy no less (and maybe even more, according to supporters of the new procedure).
Why suddenly need to abandon the water in a pedicure? There are several reasons:

As stated above, dry pedicure was born as a salon treatment. But we'll show you how to make it at home.
Dry pedicure at home
1. To begin with cleansing the skin. In the absence of water, it is done with a special
disinfectant
. Good disinfectant removes up to 99% of all bacteria on the skin surface. Such funds do not require the use of water. Texture more like a gel (Fast evaporating this gel) containing skin moisturizing ingredients, as well as antibacterials. Sometimes they have a light fragrance.
As a rule, available to disinfect hands and as a way of prevention of respiratory diseases, they can be found under different names, such as "hand sanitizer" or the English transcription "Hand Sanitizer". All these same products.
There are specially designed for a pedicure or manicure antiseptics, manufacturers produce their nail polish, for example, a disinfectant that does not require water means have brand CND - Cool Blue.
If the feet clean, it may be simply disinfecting wipes. By the way, you need to disinfect their hands and to calmly proceed to the next steps of procedure.
2. The next step -
Remove nail polish with nail plates
. When dry pedicure recommended soft foods that do not irritate the skin. Therefore, the best option - it is a soft nail polish remover without acetone content.
You'll find such liquids from many manufacturers. Good tool without acetone have ORLY.
3.
Shape nails and cuticles
. Emery boards gives nails shape. Gently move the cuticle to nail a wooden or ceramic rod. Pumice foot rub rough patches (if any). The move is familiar to almost all who do a pedicure at home, do not dwell on it for a long time. The only difference from the water manicure - nail files and pumice after again be processed foot disinfectant and wipe their feet dry with a towel, which removes dust and skin particles.
4.
Cuticle oil
. This is one of the most enjoyable stages. Apply oil to the cuticle, and on the feet and legs up to the knee - a lotion or massage oil. And massage the feet and legs. If you do not have time, then simply moisten the cuticle, but we advise you not to give up the fun that gives self-massage.
5. Again, treat your nails with a disinfectant before proceeding to the nail polish. Did you feel that the dry pedicure legs feel much better than water. Long soaking the feet in the bath robs the skin tone of the legs, too softens them, robs sensitivity. In the dry pedicure massage felt better and quite, even very light touches that make the skin soft.
6. Now you can start
nail polish
. Apply a base coat, then two layers of color, as you do in the classic pedicure.
