Manicure & Pedicure



You know already as I mentioned before that manicure and pedicure is expensive here. It's costly! You have to spend at least $50 for pedicure and manicure $50. Shocking right? If my daughter and I have to have our nails done at the salon then we'll have to spend $200 + tax.

So at home, we have to do it on our own pace and time to do our "cure." You know we are relatives of Madame Curie. "An ounce of prevention is a pound of cure" and we have to abide to that rule.

How much is a bottle of nail polish? A good brand is only $3.99 and if you want a better quality and better color you can avail of a bottle of nail polish for only $7.00 + tax of course. A bottle of nail polish remover is only less than $5.00 + cotton bag is just $2.50. It wont go up to $20.00 to clean your nails. However if you want a nail spa and have those tiny little fish eating your dead skin cells then you have to visit the salon and pay the amount you will regret. It's really up to you. People who are over-worked and cannot reach their toes because they have disability or too old to reach their toes it is adviseable to just visit the nail spa or nail salon so that they can be treated with extra care.

For me, my nails are clean and it really doesn't need much of help that I'm the only one cleaning them. At first I have to polish my daughter's nails (finger nails and toe nails) but this year she would tell me, "It's okay. I'll do it on my own." The next time I asked again and she said she'll do it and she knows how to do the manicure and pedicure. It's not as beautifully trimmed and managed but at least she is trying.

Wow! I was surprised. Thank goodness she knows how to polish her nails now. I smiled at what she said too because this time I can hear her own voice much too often than not.

 I love looking and staring at my new polished toe nails.  Nice? It is. especially when it's cleaned properly and with nail colors that I like.


I trimmed my nails, as I noticed it's longer than it normally does have to cut them off shorter and I painted the toe nails a little darker (from baby pink color to brighter pink). By the way, my wedged sandals'  beads that looks like a grapevine have fallen one by one as it was out from its chain that I replaced it with a new stylish design using a ruffled fabric with silvery lining and trimmings.
