Pedicure work runs on consumables. The right toenail nipper for ingrown corrections, the right e-file system for callus and dead skin, and the right disposable foot covers for paraffin and moisture treatments. These are the products that earn their slot at our pedicure station.

Frequently Asked

Questions readers ask.

Why are there two foot-cover packs on this list?
The 200-pack is the right starter count. The 400-pack is what we re-order once we know the volume. Same use case, different scale.
Do I need both disc-system entries?
If you're brand new to electric foot files, the 150-disc kit gives you everything to start, including the metal bit. The standalone 2-pack of bits is the upgrade — once you're working at speed, you want a coarse-loaded bit and a fine-loaded bit ready to swap during a service.
