Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi has possibly received the most smack in Hollywood for the foul choices she made in her early 20s during her run on MTV's Jersey Shore. Whether she was getting obliterated and binge-eating pickles, grinding on some dude in a trashy club, or bragging about her tanning addiction, Snooki was not seen positively in the media. Yet, the reality-TV-star-turned-brand-mogul has turned it around in just a few years. Professionally, she now designs her own apparel, sunglasses, and slippers inspired by her personal style; has written two books (Confessions of a Guidette and Gorilla Beach); and stars in her own MTV show with her best friend, Jenni "JWoww" Farley. Personally, she married her sweetheart Jionni LaValle and is the proud mother of her 2-year-old son, Lorenzo, and a newborn girl, Giovanna Marie. Basically, she's killin' it at life. Ain't no one be calling this shortie a meatball anymore! With all of her success, she's made a major transformation, and we can't help but notice how darn pretty she is. So lo and behold, we present the eight beauty lessons you can snag from Snooki — because at the end of the day, Jersey girls know their beauty stuff.
Invest in Frequent Blowouts For Kate Middleton Hair
In the past year, Snooki has rarely been seen on the red carpet or for paparazzi photos without her now-signature big waves. Though we are hardly comparing her to the duchess, we do support the idea of keeping up a consistent hairstyle (think of it like having a go-to scent). Snooki’s look includes a bright red dye job, romantic beach waves (perhaps a nod to the Shore), and a slightly off-center part. It's modern and easily obtained with the help of a hot tool, such as Suktra's Bombshell Curling Iron ($130).
Peach Blush Perfectly Accents a Tan
Snooki knows that instead of dusting tons of bronzer on top of her already tan skin, she can make her cheeks pop with a punchy peach blush. Try a creamy formula, such as Benefit Majorette Blush ($28), blended into the apples of your cheeks to give your bone structure definition. Hashtag #skinnyface!
One Accent Nail Is Enough
Before nail art became a "thing," two types of women were wearing it: Harajuku girls and Jersey girls. Snooki falls into the latter category, but as her style has matured, her manicures have grown up, too. This neutral nail art looks elegant with just one statement digit decorated with baroque-inspired swirls.
Lip Liner and Gloss Make a Fuller Pout
Truth be told, Snooki doesn’t have the biggest lips in the biz. But rather than relying on lip-plumping injections, she makes her mouth look curvier with lip liner and gloss. The pencil enhances the shape, while the shine adds dimension.
A Sleek Blowout and Cozy Sweater Make a Date-Night Win
In the end, Snooki landed her dream guy and is happily hitched. So we're going to her for man-attracting love advice. The best way to make your honey want to snuggle up is by pairing a bright white sweater (which pops against self-tanner) with a satin-like blowout. Try Kérastase Nutritive Oleo-Relax Oil ($38) to get supersmooth strands.
Champaign Shimmer Flatters Dark Eyes
Those with lush lashes like Snooki's (be them falsies or just the help of a rockstar mascara) should consider complementing their full flutter with soft metallic eye shadow. Instead of making the inner corners of her eyes pop with white illuminator (the usual go-to), Snooki went for a light gold, which got darker toward her outer lid. The gilded ombré effect is just beautiful on brown eyes.
Matching Is a Must Do
If you have a fierce hair color (like scarlet!), there's nothing wrong with sporting the same color on your nails, lips, and even clothes. Snooki pulls off multiple red hues with polish and pizzazz.
The Best Accessory Is Always a Baby
If you've got a little cutie, then lay off the heavy makeup and take a picture with your munchkin's face next to yours. Motherhood is the ultimate beauty secret to getting that happy glow.
