I love this because it completely cleaned my nails. And it was so relaxing too! My mom passed by as I was doing this and told me I looked like an idiot because of the look of satisfaction on my face.

I did this for my feet too, using the same thing I used for my fingernails but I guess toe nails need more attention. I think it would be better if I rubbed Kalamansi directly to it after a warm water soak. Something I will try next week!

I found the recipe I used here. I opted for the recipe with Glycerine because I don't want my skin to dry out or anything. 

Overall, I love this for its simplicity and because I love anything that would require me to soak and chill out! Try it out yourself!
