Beauty Lessons to Learn from Movie Makeovers

I stumbled upon this from Bella Sugar and I just knew I had to share it with you! Here's an excerpt:

There are so many iconic ugly duckling movie makeovers that you'd think we'd be tired of them, but every few years a film comes out that puts a new, charming twist on the classic Cinderella makeover. And of course, it teaches us a useful lesson or two in the process. For your viewing pleasure, I've put together 10 of my favorite makeover movies with very, very important beauty morals.

Oh, Sandy. Changing for a dumb guy has never looked more fun. Although we can't condone the total personality makeover, you'll notice that when people dress up as characters from Grease for Halloween, their Sandy is always in the outfit from the last scene, because girlfriend looks smokin' hot.

Lesson learned:
Red lipstick, smoky eyes, and big hair will get you everywhere.
