Written by Jessica May | Now that the holiday season is over, you’re back to the daily grind. Although you need to, you may not have time or money to pamper yourself. Try these easy tips to completely change up your look and instantly improve your mood.

1. Nails: Experiment with Polish

One easy and inexpensive way to change up your look is to experiment with nail polish. Whether you want to look polished and professional with a nude mani or more adventurous with geometric nail art, just choose a design that makes you feel fabulous. If you’re feeling like pampering yourself, schedule a trip to your local manicurist for a glamorous spa day. However, if you want to save some cash, check out Pinterest for some nail art inspiration that you can recreate on your own.

2. Hair: Change Up Your Part

Have you ever considered the best part for your face shape? Changing where you part your hair may be one of the most inexpensive and simple ways you can change up your look. If you have a heart-shaped face, you should part your hair straight down the middle while if your face is round or square, you should make a deep part to showcase one side of your face. If you have an oval-shaped face, you can experiment to find with part works for you. This small change can make a huge difference!

3. Fragrance: Find a Signature Scent

To celebrate the new you and give yourself a little pick-me-up, spend some time at the nearest department store to find a signature fragrance. Be introspective and decide what qualities you’d like to emulate in 2014. If you are planning on focusing on your professional life this year, try Donna Karan Cashmere Mist. The subtle yet indulgent scent is sure to make you feel sophisticated and empowered.  If you are looking for more feminine and floral notes, Miss Dior may be for you. No matter what scent you choose, make sure it embodies you. While a new fragrance may not change your appearance, it will change the way you feel and the way others perceive you.

4. Makeup: Try a New Product

Pamper yourself with some new makeup during the new year. If you’ve ever wanted to try our false lashes or a bright red lipstick, go for it! Create a new makeup look that represents you. For a new twist, try some new formulas on the market and toss out your expired products. BB and CC cream are both formulas that are relatively new and have real skin benefits. Swap your pore clogging foundation for a tinted BB or CC cream to improve your skin tone and make your face glow.

5. Teeth: Start Whitening

A great way to instantly make you look younger and healthier is to whiten your teeth. For a really quick transformation, try Crest 3D White Whitestrips that will whiten your smile in just 1 hour. You can also take a trip to your dentist to get your teeth professionally whitened. This simple change will make a big difference in your overall appearance.
