Step 1 of the At Home Pedicure.
Removing old nail polish
The next step at home pedicure involves removing the old nail polish completely using cotton pads dipped in acetone remover. Use flat cotton pads and not cotton-wool balls because these tend to leave behind traces of cotton strands on the nails.
If this does not remove the polish completely then the acetone soaked cotton pads has to be left on the nails for some time until it comes off completely.

Step 2 Of The At Home Pedicure.
Clipping and Filing the toenails.
Invest in the best quality nail clippers that you can afford. A good quality clipper gives far better results.
Nails have to be cut leaving about 1/8th of an inch length so that the nails don't extend over the tip of the toes.
For acquiring a soft square shaped nail, its best to file from around the corners and edges in one direction using Emery boards and not metal files as they could cause the nails to split.

Step 3 of the At Home Pedicure
Make your feet baby soft.
Trimming of loose skin is done using cuticle nippers and care should be taken to see that the toe flesh is not cut.
Exfoliators, foot scrubs, or if possible wet pumice stone is used to remove the dead cells in the balls and heels of the feet.
Scrubbing too hard may cause the foot to turn red, in case of which the scrubbing should be stopped.

Step 5 of the At Home Pedicure - optional
The last and final step to sexy feet!
A thin base coat of three strokes, with one down the middle and the other one on each side is applied followed by a thin topcoat.
Don't paint the cuticles.
Wrap some cotton around an orangewood stick and dip it into some nail polish remover to remove any excess nail polish.
The nails are to be dried before wearing shoes. Pedicure socks are available which can be worn without covering the toenails.
