This nail nipper features sharp cutting edges for cleanly and easily trimming hard fingernails and toenails. The high-quality polished stainless steel complements the nipper’s attractive, premium design and ensures excellent performance and long-lasting durability. Nail nippers are used primarily for pedicures. Soak your feet for a few minutes in lukewarm water with lotion or mild soap. This softens the skin and nails, making them easier to work on. Nail nippers can also effortlessly trim or shape thicker nails. Different sizes and cutting-head designs indicate different uses. Toenails should be kept short and relatively straight (tip: nails should not extend beyond the toe). Ingrown nails along the sides can be easily removed with a nail-edge nipper. It’s important to use a nail file after each cut to smooth and seal the nail. Well-groomed feet make walking more comfortable. Despite their sturdy appearance, all sharp and moving parts of nail nippers need to be maintained. A drop of oil on the joint and an occasional wipe with a dry towel are all that’s needed. This is especially important after use in damp environments, such as bathrooms. Protect the cutting edge from damage. Storage in a case is recommended. Follow these tips, and your nail nippers should last a very long time. (Special tip: Apply hand lotion after a manicure. Many cosmetic lotions contain harsh substances that can react with metal and discolor the surface!)
