See how gorgeous? Don't be afraid to experiment with reds. Just keep your skin natural and minimal, and try to avoid orangey shades.

Sun damage and melanoma isn't skin tone exclusive. Apply that sunscreen daily, no matter what color your skin is!

3. Getting a haircut isn't the end of the world. Trust.

Long-haired ladies, I'm looking at you. You're not going to die if you cut a few inches off. And believe it or not, you probably really need a haircut. Dead ends and scraggly layers are not cute.

4. You don't have to wash your hair every day.

Or even every two days. Or three days. Or four days. Shower caps and dry shampoo were invented for a reason, people! Also, do you actually think Beyonce spends her precious 24 hours washing her own hair?

5. It's OK to skip your weekly mani and go bare once in a while.

ESPECIALLY if you have a man. Make the effort! No one likes cuddling up to prickliness. If you're single though, fine.

7. But if you MUST slack on one beauty feature, do NOT let it be your eyebrows.

Taking the time to focus on YOU will change your life, and you'll feel amazing and gorgeous as a result. And don't forget to ask for that glass of champagne! You're not paying $200+ for nothing.
