Which product is necessary in a basic pedicure procedure?

Moisturizer
Base coat
Callus remover
Nail polish

The correct answer is: Callus remover

In a basic pedicure procedure, the use of callus remover is essential for maintaining foot health and aesthetics. Feet can accumulate hardened skin and calluses due to factors such as friction, pressure, and lack of proper care. Callus remover products are specifically formulated to soften and dissolve tough skin, making it easier to remove excess buildup, ensuring that the feet look smooth and well-groomed. While other products like moisturizers, base coats, and nail polish contribute to enhancing the overall appearance of the feet and nails, they are not as foundational to the initial cleaning and preparation process of a pedicure. A moisturizer aids in hydrating the skin and can be applied after callus removal, while base coats and nail polish are typically applied last, after the basic cleaning and care steps have been completed. Thus, callus remover is a key component in achieving clean and healthy feet as part of pedicure care.
