Fill two bowls with warm water, one for each of you, and soak your fingers for about 5 minutes to soften your skin. If you want the full spa feel, add a couple drops of your favorite essential oil into the water.
Step 4: Scrub
Now that your skin has softened, it’s time to exfoliate. Gently exfoliate your daughter’s hands with a scrub for about thirty seconds and have your daughter do the same for you.
If your skin is cracked skip this step completely and be careful with your daughter’s skin since it’s more delicate. Try not to overdo it, we’re only scrubbing until our hands feel soft.
Step 5: Clip And File
Next, grab your nail clippers and clip your daughter’s fingernails to her desired length.
For a uniform manicure try to clip all nails to the same length. Use your nail file to smooth out the corners and edges and shape as desired.
Depending on the age of your daughter, you can do this step yourself or have her do it for you.
