The Over Him Overhaul

Breakups have a way of bringing out the worst in some woman (think bon-bon binges and uncontrollable bouts of sobbing in public places). Yet, for others, they bring out the desire for glamorous self-transformation. Guess which approach yields the least consequences? That’s right: the makeover. Or, in this case, the Taaz makeover, which allows you to sample a new look online before committing to it wholeheartedly.

The Over Him Overhaul, otherwise known as Sooo Over Him Overhaul, might seem superficial, but there’s something to be said for the motivation behind it. For many newly single females, a change in physical appearance helps to speed up the healing process. We’re not claiming to be psychologists; we’re beauty editors. But this is precisely why we can attest to the power of a proper powder. When paramours go awry, visit the Taaz virtual cosmetics counter to sample concealers, shadows and lipsticks galore, then take your Favorites List shopping with you. In the meantime, we reveal the quickie beauty boosters guaranteed to jump-start your recirculation into society and help you on your quest for those three little words: closure, closure, closure.

Boost Your Complexion
Instead of over-indulging in an entire box of truffles, seek out a restorative and oh-so-decadent chocolate facial. This do-it-yourself treatment tames tangled nerves with the scent of chocolate, which has been known to send the body into an excited, dopamine-induced state similar to that caused by true love (which inevitably begs the question: do you really need a man?). Mix 1/3 cup cocoa powder, 3 tablespoons heavy cream, 1/4 cup honey and 3 teaspoons oatmeal together in a blender until smooth and slather a generous layer on your face. Relax for fifteen minutes, then wash with warm water to reveal baby-soft skin. Be sure to do a patch test on your wrist if you have sensitive skin.

 Boost Your Mane
You might be tempted to retire to the couch and bleet like an injured lamb—not to mention neglect to shave your legs or wash your hair for weeks on end. Then again, you might be dying to do something drastic to your hair. Either situation is social-life threatening. Avoid potential snafus by trying on the styles in the Taaz virtual salon, then send the pics to your discerning friends for approval.
