Step 4: Treat Cuticles
Step 4: Treat Cuticles Pull one foot from the foot bath and put a drop cuticle oil on each nail. Try NCLA So Rich Cuticle Oil, $18, for a strong dose of nail-repairing vitamin E. Massage it in and glide a wooden cuticle stick (Urban Beauty United carries colorful "Cutiecools," $8.99, that are emery tipped -- perfect for smoothing nails) around the nail to push back any dead skin that might be clinging to the nail plate. Switch feet, submerging your first foot back into the water, and do the same on your other foot.

If you want to feel like a true professional (or if you just really despise cuticles), invest in a tool like the Cricket Pro Cuticle 1/4 Nipper, $19.99. The tiny nipper is extremely precise and sharp, making it easy to trim cuticles.
