# First things first, you need to remove all traces of old nail paint using any nail paint remover of your choice. After removing nail paint, use a cuticle softener on your toe nails. Alternatively, you may use warm olive oil.
# Start your pedicure by soaking your feet in a tub full of warm water. Adding sea salt is optional, you may do it if, you want to relax your foot muscles.
# You may also add a shower gel or shampoo to your foot soaking water in order to clean the deposits of dirt and grime accumulated on your feet. A few drops of essential oils can be added to add to the aroma and moisturize your feet. Adding essential oils is optional and not something that is a must. If you want, add a couple of drops of Rose oil Or tea tree oil. Tea tree oil helps in getting rid of fungal infection between toes, too.
# If you like, you can add raw milk to your foot soak. Milk enzymes and lactic acid help to soften the layer of dead skin and callus on your feet and thus makes it easier for you get rid of these.
# Soak your feet for nearly 15 minutes and then use a foot file to rub away the dead skin on the soles of your feet.
# Apply a natural fruit peel on your feet. This can be prepared by mixing equal quantities of Orange juice, lemon juice and pineapple juice. To add some body to this mix and prevent it from dripping, add some besan/ Gram flour to the mix. Gram flour binds the juices together and also helps in exfoliation. Apply this peeling paste on your feet for 10 to 15 minutes, till it dries. Now, take some warm water in your palms and rub off all the peeling paste. Pat feet dry.
# Peeling powder helps in easy exfoliation in the subsequent scrubbing and also takes care of tanning on feet to a good extent.
# Next comes scrubbing. You can make your own scrub by adding some coconut oil or olive oil to coffee granules. Use this scrub on top of your feet and then pat dry to reveal beautiful and clean looking feet.
