  • Summary

  • From lip butter to Botox, people today are shelling out a lot of money on beauty products and procedures. According to The Aesthetic Society, people in the U.S. spent $11.8 billion on aesthetic procedures in 2022. When it comes to beauty products, one report from Lending Tree shows the average American spends $1,754 annually, with younger generations budgeting even more for beauty (thanks, TikTok). But do we really need to spend big bucks on beauty products and procedures to look our best? Val Monroe, the former longtime beauty director at O Magazine and writer behind the popular Substack How Not To F*ck Up Your Face, says it’s time to get back to basics. She joins us to talk about her simple skincare routine and whether you really need that new product you’re eyeing. Takeaways: Having a simple, effective, and inexpensive beauty routine is key. Surgical procedures should be approached with careful consideration. It’s important to ask who you’re doing this for and learn how to practice radical self-acceptance. Use the five W's (who, what, when, where, why) to make informed beauty purchases.
