We loved “monday me time” so much we turned it into a blog!

Here you will learn about services, tips/tricks, products and more having to do will all things beauty.

Monday Me Time blogs will be written from ideas and knowledge from our various professionals at Salon Patrick! Today we will be featuring our Nail Tech Kristie.

Today’s topic is nail, hand, and foot care!

Taking care of these three things will keep your hands and feet salon prefect between your Mani and Pedi appointments.

Daily Steps:

• Drink plenty of water! This seems simple but it will keep your hands, feet, nails, and cuticles hydrated from the inside, out.

• In the AM use Aveda’s Hand Relief and Aveda’s Foot Relief. We opt for a crème moisturizer because it is more hydrating than your average moisturizing lotion.

• In the PM use Aveda’s Hand Relief Night Renewal Serum. This serum improves the texture and tone of your hands, while plumping the skin to visibly smooth fine lines.

• Oil your cuticles day. Try using Peacci’s Cuticle Oil, it provides intense hydration and can strengthen your nail plate, preventing brittle and split nails. Bonus: It smells like peaches!

Weekly:

• Exfoliate. We love exfoliating the hands and feet once a week using Aveda Skin Refiner! This will remove ingrained dirt, it will also refresh the skin by removing dead skin cells, to help it feel supple, smooth and brighten the skins appearance.

Kristie suggests getting a Manicure every 2-4 weeks and a Pedicure every 4-6 weeks!
