Innovations in Manicure and Pedicure Sets

Manicure and pedicure sets are better than ever. The traditional set is a small carrying case which contains everything you need for well groomed fingernails and toenails. This would almost always include clippers, a small pair of scissors, a nail file and tweezers. Sometimes, mani-pedi kits will also contain extras like buffers for shine and sewing implements for clothing repair on the go. One of the newest innovations in technology is the power mani-pedi set.

For example, Remington offers a cordless mani-pedi set that contains seven attachments. These attachments include several filing, buffing and shaping disks. Because these disks operate faster than manual tools, your manicure gets done in a fraction of the time. Many professional nail salons use power tools to shape and buff nails. So, a set like the one offered by Remington is the closest you can get to an authentic salon experience right at home!

There are plenty of accessories that can enhance the results of your buffing, filing and shaping. A rich cuticle cream is perfect for softening rough cuticles so they can be pushed back. Many people think cuticles should be cut, but this actually makes things worse as it leads to jagged tears and snags. Nail oil like the ever popular Solar Oil is ideal for finishing off your manicure. Fast dry sprays can accelerate the drying process and prevent polish smudging. There are even stick on jewels that give your mani-pedi a sparkly look.

Of course, you also need nail polish! No manicure would be complete without it. The most well-known brand out there today is OPI. The fun names and gorgeous colors are only two reasons why this moderately priced, professional grade line of polishes are so popular. A handy wide brush and fast drying, long lasting formula make OPI the best choice for anyone seeking a gorgeous professional quality paint job. Some popular colors include the trendy Lincoln Park After Dark, a deep eggplant shade, and the classic Bubble Bath, a pale sheer pink.

You can buy manicure and pedicure sets most anywhere. Stores like Wal-Mart and Target carry them, as do drugstores like Rite Aid and CVS. Sally Beauty Supply and stores like it carry every imaginable nail care item. Or, you can try shopping online. There are plenty of specialty stores online where you can buy beauty products and personal care items. Even Ebay has its own health and beauty section, which is often the best place to find dramatic bargains.
