Okay, let’s be honest. No amount of socks and moisturizes applied to the skin during the winter months work to keep away from dry skin. Of course, summer is the perfect season to get beautiful pedicures and manicures to flaunt.

However, many of us still tend to ignore our hands and feet and keep complaining about dry and cracked skin. You must take extra caution during this season because when ignored, the skin can suffer much damage with the everyday tasks carried out. Manicure and pedicure play important roles and the processes do their bit to add moisture and soothe rough skin. Keep reading to find out how you can try easy winter manicure and pedicure tips in the comfort of your home with Vega manicure and pedicure accessories to combat dry skin.
The Ultimate Full Manicure and Pedicure Effect at Home
You can easily give yourself a full manicure and pedicure at home with Vega Manicure and Pedicure Sets that are designed for use by both beginners and professionals. Here’s a step-by-step process to follow:
- Start dry by buffing the soles of your feet using a pumice stone. Remember to do this gently and do not get your skin wet
- Then fill a bowl with warm water and add half a teaspoon of Epsom salt. Soak your feet for about 10 minutes. Follow the same process for your hands too
- Next, take your pumice stone again and start exfoliating the dry skin from your feet
- Pat dry. Use Vega Soft Touch Cuticle Trimmer and Pusher to gently push back nail cuticles and clean the cuticles from all the fingernails and toenails
- Use a nail clipper to trim your nails if required and file them using a nail filer
- Complete your at-home manicure and pedicure by moisturizing your skin thoroughly. You can also use a skin massage oil to gently massage your feet and hands for 2-3 minutes each
- Cover your feet with a thin pair of socks and secure your hands as well with a pair of soft gloves to avoid dust from accumulating and entering the pores
Tips to Maintain Manicure and Pedicure to Combat Dry Skin
Once you are done with your at-home manicure and pedicure with tools from Vega, maintaining them becomes crucial. This is because the chilly winter months can easily get your skin dry and your nails brittle, resulting to cracking up easily. Your body quickly loses a good amount of moisture because of the dry air. But if you follow these tips, you can work a great deal in maintaining your nails and skin in winter:
- Keep short nails: Since the cold months already keep the nails brittle and weak, keeping them long can only cause harm. Hence, cutting them with a nail clipper or filing them will prove wise
- Always moisturize: Make it a habit to apply moisturizes, especially after washing your hands. Always reach out for mild options that are rich in natural ingredients such as avocado oil, olive oil and shea butter as they lock in moisture and boosting nail health
- Quick pedicure during shower: Whenever possible during or after your shower, gently exfoliate your feet using Vega Foot Scrubber (4 in 1) to remove the rough and dry skin that start to appear during this season. You can then apply lotion after you pat dry yourself
Conclusion
By following these winter care tips, you can keep your hands and feet healthy and beautiful. Do not let the joy of the winter season spoil your mood because of dry and cracked skin. Embrace the joy of the season instead by simply following these easy tips that can be followed by anyone.
