Red Door Spa really knows how to create a luxurious spa pedicure for its clients. Here's a step-by-step.

Garden City Red Door Spa, Long Island, N.Y., uses: Spa 7/52 Bath Crystals and Heel It; Epi-clenz Hand Antiseptic; Footlogix Callus Off; Salt of the Earth Spiced Eden Creamy Sugar Glow and Spiced Eden Body Crème; antibacterial hand soap, acetone, paraffin; CND Cuticle Away, ScrubFresh, Stickey, Super Shiney, Solar Oil, and Solar Speed Spray; Essie nail polish.


Steps:

1. Soak the client’s feet in warm water with Spa 7/52 Bath Crystals.
2. Apply antibacterial hand soap to exfoliating gloves and rub together to create foam. Wash the client’s feet and lower legs. Dry the client’s feet with a towel.
3. Apply Epi-clenz Hand Antiseptic on your hands and your client’s feet.
4. Start nail prep, including removing existing polish with acetone and applying CND Cuticle Away. Put the client’s left foot back into the water and prep the right foot first (as follows).

5. Spray Footlogix Callus Off onto plastic wrap and place on the client’s calluses.
6. Finish nail prep, including shaping and cuticle detailing. Apply base coat.
7. Remove the plastic wrap. File calluses with a Pedi Pro Tool Foot File for up to three minutes. Place the right foot back into the bath, then repeat steps 5-7 with the left foot.

8. Remove the client’s right foot from the bath. Massage Salt of the Earth Spiced Eden Creamy Sugar Glow into the client’s feet and lower legs until it becomes a thick paste. Place the right foot back into the bath, then repeat with the left foot.
9. Don exfoliating gloves and wash off the scrub. Remove the gloves. Use a wand or a hot wet towel to wipe off the remainder. Remove feet from the bath and dry with a towel.
10. Massage the client’s feet and lower legs with Salt of the Earth Spiced Eden Body Crème for 10 minutes.

11. Place each of the client’s feet inside a paraffin bag. Cover with towels and/or booties. After three minutes, remove the paraffin.
12. Wipe nails with a lint-free square dipped in acetone to clean the base coat. Wipe nails with a lint-free square dipped in CND ScrubFresh.
13. Apply CND Stickey base coat. Apply a thin layer or two of Essie polish. Apply CND Super Shiney top coat.
14. Apply a small amount of Spa 7/52 Heel It into the heels and other callused areas on the foot.
