At-Home Pedicure and Manicure Made Easy with Emjoi Micro-Pedi

The summer heat can be harsh on your feet. To make our open-toes more presentable, we often spend our time and hard-earned blogging money getting a pedicure. But thanks to Emjoi Micro-Pedi ($39.95, available at Sally Beauty and Drugstore.com), we can slough off dead, dry skin and buff away calluses in the privacy of our own abode.

Everything She Wants gave the Emjoi Micro-Pedi a whirl and we were thrilled with how gentle and easy it was to use. Just add two AA batteries and let the exfoliation begin. Within seconds, our rough soles felt and looked noticeably smoother. Plus, this podiatrist-approved device is safer and more effective than dangerous metal scrapers, which use blades to cut the skin.

For a complete home-spa experience, Emjoi now offers two new attachment kits--the Micro-Pedi Precision Kit with precision cone rollers to remove hard-to-reach calloused skin between and under the toes (yuck) and the Micro-Pedi Manicure Kit with five attachments to smooth, shape and buff nails on your hands and feet.

Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater Comes to Brooklyn, June 5-8

Memorial Day Summer Swimsuits in the Amazon.com Swim Shop!

Memorial Day weekend is right around the corner. Do you have your new summer swimsuit yet? If not, Everything She Wants recommends checking out Amazon.com's Amazon Swim Shop . Me at the Amazon Swim Shop preview. The online shop is stocked year-round with trendy and timeless swimsuit styles, cover ups and swim accessories from your favorite brands.
