Few things are more gratifying than having your feet pampered and your toenails polished. While the technicians work meticulously to exfoliate dead skin and shape and polish your nails, you’re probably not thinking about the upkeep to follow. Gel polishes ensure that chipping or fading of your glossy toenails won’t happen too fast, but there are a few other things to consider when trying to make your pedicure last. At the top of the list are the tools and products that help keep your feet soft and baby-smooth. From calluses to dry patches, the heels are usually the first to become unkempt during the weeks between appointments. However, with the right routine, you can maintain your pedicure and freshen up areas of concern at home. Below, see the items to have on hand to make the most of your pedicure.

The ergonomic handle makes it easy to get the hard-to-reach areas while the round exfoliating stone effortlessly works the curves and grooves of your foot. It's also waterproof, so you can quickly touch up your heels in the shower before sliding into your sandals.
