Taking care of your body, hair, nails, and feet is very essential. When it comes to nails, one often prefers going out to expensive salons but a few tips show how easy it is to do the same at home. For an at-home manicure and pedicure session, you will require a nail cutter, nail filer, nail polish, aloe vera gel, cuticle oil, and cotton balls.
