Editor's Notes
August 13, 2020:
Whether it's to save money on professional services or simply provide upkeep in between sessions, pedicure kits are a great way to pamper soles and toes at home. When thinking about what to include on this list, we wanted to make sure to represent a wide range of options and uses while always keeping an eye on quality.
As far as complete kits go, we love the Eaone 20-in-1 Mani-Pedi because it comes with so many gadgets for buffing, trimming, and primping. Even though some of the pieces could be higher quality, meaning you will have to replace them after a bit of use, the fact that everything is together in one convenient box makes this one stand out. We also love the Toplner Foot File Tools. Though it doesn't boast as many items as the Eaone, every piece of equipment in this set is high quality. Plus, it's small enough for traveling, which we counted as a plus.
When nail care is the main concern, the Tweezerman Mini Nail Rescue is a good option. It's smaller than standard size but is still very effective, plus comes from a trusted brand. At the high end of things, we like the Zeva Natural Nail Care System, which is notably pricey, but its professional grade tools can last years with proper care, so in the long run, it's still a great value.
We also wanted to make sure we featured many options that addressed rough skin. The JD Walker Natural Callus Remover caught our eye with its epsom salt and essential oil soak, substantial pumice stone, and thick lotion. But for healing cracking heals specifically, the O'Keefe's Healthy Feet is nearly impossible to beat. While not a kit, we did want to include it on this list because it's proven to be effective for even the most difficult situations.
While not represented on this list, a good pedicure often includes paint. We recommend a good nail polish remover, like those found on our nail polish removers ranking, and a high-quality polish, like those found on our nail polish sets ranking.
