A manicure is a beauty treatment for the fingernails and hand that can be practiced at home or at a spa. Manicure entails filing and shaping of the nails and massage of the hands. But there are various spa treatments you can choose from for a good manicure. Pedicure is not just a beauty treatment and is important to prevent nail disorders and diseases. The same treatment applies to the toenails like the fingernails, but while getting a pedicure, the sole of the feet are scrubbed with a pumice to prevent build-up of dead cells. A pedicure also implies massaging of the legs and moisturising it with lotions.
