Fresh pedicure and manicure looking perfect? Keep that smooth, bright, photo-ready finish longer with a simple at-home routine. These quick tips protect shine, prevent rough heels and dull knuckles, and help your polish stay neat for days.
Why Mani/Pedi Fade Early
- Water + detergents: frequent washing strips natural oils and dulls shine.
- Friction: sandals, tight shoes, and chores roughen heels and toes.
- UV exposure: tans the backs of hands and feet, making tone look uneven.
Post-Salon Essentials
- SACHET Hand & Foot Brightening Cream — daily hydration + even-tone support
- SACHET Hand & Foot Skin Polish — creamy, gentle polish (1–2×/week)
- SACHET Hand & Foot Brightening Scrub — textured option for heels only
- Day protection: Mineral Sunscreen SPF 70 (100ml) / Aloe Vera Gel Sunscreen SPF 50 (100ml) / Glow Boost Moisturizer Sunscreen SPF 65 (100ml)
- Cotton gloves/socks for overnight softening (optional)
24-Hour Aftercare (Lock the Glow)
- Go gentle: Avoid hot water and harsh detergents for the first day. Use gloves for dishwashing.
- Hydrate lightly: Massage a thin layer of Hand & Foot Brightening Cream into backs of hands, knuckles, heels, and toes after washing.
- Protect outdoors: Apply Mineral SPF 70, SPF 50 Gel, or Glow Boost SPF 65 on exposed areas to prevent new tan.
Weekly Maintenance (10 Minutes)
- 1–2×/week — Gentle polish: Use Skin Polish for 30–60 seconds on hands/toes. Rinse, pat dry, seal with cream.
- 2×/week — Heels only: Brightening Scrub for rough heels (short, gentle session), then cream.
- Overnight softening (1–2 nights): Cream → thin cotton socks for baby-soft heels.
Workday & Chores — Quick Rules
- Gloves on: for dishes, detergents, or bleaching agents.
- Top-ups: Reapply a pea-sized amount of cream after washing or sanitizer use.
- SPF habit: Backs of hands need sunscreen if driving or sitting by windows.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Daily hard scrubbing: can cause micro-irritation and dullness—keep it gentle.
- Skipping moisturizer after polish: leads to tightness and faster fade.
- No SPF after salon: UV quickly dulls the fresh, even look.
FAQs
How soon can I exfoliate after a salon visit?
Wait 48–72 hours, then use a creamy polish 1–2×/week. Keep scrubs for heels only.
Will cream make my nail polish chip?
No—use a small amount and avoid rubbing the nail surface. Focus on skin, cuticles, and heels.
What if my heels get rough again?
Add a second cream layer at night and wear socks. Use scrub on heels 2×/week until smooth.
