To ask how you'd reinvent yourself in 24 hours if money was no object?

You have 24 hours to reinvent yourself. Money is no object and you cannot give any of the money available away on others or charitable causes, you can only spend it on you or purchase things that continuously benefit/be used by you. Where do you begin?

Inspired by having a big event on Friday, wanting to look and feel my best but somehow browsing through Pinterest for hair inspiration etc has got me fantasising about a top to toe makeover...

Personally I would have my hair done, facial and a full body massage, eyebrows wax and tinted, nails done, lash lift and tint, maybe a spray tan.

TabithaTittlemouse · 02/11/2022 21:57

Oh and new clothes, bag, shoes, jewellery and coat.

I love this as I'd do the same! Spray tan probably at the top of my list because I love being tanned. I think I'd purchase a new wardrobe too. Thoughtfully chosen things that will last but I'd otherwise never splurge on, especially shoes! I'm naughty for buying cheap shoes to get me through until they fall apart instead of one good pair...

Miss Congeniality style make over with an amazing personal stylist restocking my wardrobe!

TabithaTittlemouse · 02/11/2022 22:03

@Ladybug9 expensive shoes are my downfall sadly.

illiterato · 02/11/2022 22:06

Botox and fillers ( eye bags)
waxing
eyebrows ( threaded)
pedicure
mani pedi
hair cut and highlighted
might actually buy a wig that looks like my hair but better- been considering that for a while actually.
dental hygienist for cleaning
make up lesson as I really need to change it up
get my ears pinned back ( but only if it was instant as I did look into it but the recovery is a bit onerous and I’m a bit over caring about it tbh)

Moonflower12 · 02/11/2022 22:09

I'd have a lovely facial. A make up artist in every day to do my makeup ( money no object!) and a spray tan. Pedicure and manicure. A miracle get thin fast diet.
And I'd do all my clothes shopping in the White Company.

Moonflower12 · 02/11/2022 22:09

Underwear from Rigby and Pellar. And a really good cut and colour.

Jamepume · 02/11/2022 22:14

Lipo
jowls sorted
tummy tuck
highlights
mani pedi

bcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyza · 02/11/2022 22:20

Weight loss surgery, new wardrobe

granhands1 · 03/11/2022 12:51

Run away, fake identity

Bumzoo · 03/11/2022 12:52

Botox takes too long to work.

I'd add teeth whitening

Thatiswild · 03/11/2022 12:56

Quick tummy tuck and lipo perhaps, one of those surgery free facelifts, teeth whitening, get braces on, new shoes and clothes, new haircut and colour and massage, facial, mani pedi all that stuff, I’d love it.

CreamMilkT0p · 03/11/2022 13:11

I would travel the world, non stop, with my rucksack, forever

Lots of adventures
Lots of scuba diving
Getting fitter

Cheerupmaggi · 03/11/2022 13:13

All of the above!

AnneTwackie · 03/11/2022 13:15

Every hair below my eyebrows permanently removed! The time I would save!

Ponoka7 · 03/11/2022 13:21

Fibroblasting, tear trough filler, facial treatments, vitamin B injection and possibly some fillers. Hair cut, I couldn't get the dental work that I needed in a day. Microbladed eyebrows. I'd buy top of the range hair thickening treatment, Brazilian blow dry products. Dyson hair styler/dryer. Complete Elimis skin care. Nails Inc nail stuff. Facial treatment mask that does red/green light. I'd update my home microneedling kit and radiotherapy kit. A shit ton of body shop hemp cream. JPG scandal perfume. Appetite suppressant injection.

Some form of tooth whitening that is very effective but causes no harm to teeth.

Some magical treatment that removes many or all wrinkles painlessly permanently (& doesn't shorten or damage life)

Some magic surgery that restores eyesight.

Season0fTheWitch · 03/11/2022 13:53

I'd get my hair done- I have it bleached every 4 weeks and it's due anyway. Then have it straightened and maybe longer extensions (currently they're boob level)
Get my nails done- nice acrylics in a neutral colour
Teeth whitened
Brows done
Lip filler topped up
Spray tan topped up
New lingerie to make me feel confident
New earrings, ear cuffs etc and my rings all washed

mondaytosunday · 03/11/2022 14:15

I'd buy a house in my dream location. I'd get a cleaner in twice a week. I'd buy houses/pay off the mortgage for my family. I'd set my son up in business ...all this would help as it would remove quite a bit of stress from my life!
I'd like a wardrobe overhaul, but I'd want this money no object to somehow include the loss of a few stone first!

OopsAnotherOne · 03/11/2022 14:30

I often think about this OP - all the things I'd do if I had all the money in the world.
I'd get hair extensions to match my blonde balayage as my hair is thin and quite short.
I'd get a nose job and a boob job. I have A cup boobs and can't fill out any pretty tops at all, they all look weird and baggy on me where my "boobs" should be. I want a nose job as I resemble a pelican.
I'd like a spray tan but a proper one as the ones I've had in the past seemed patchy.
I'd pay for a facial to sort my pores out.
I'd buy some expensive. high end make up rather than my budget bits I have now.
I'd buy a new wardrobe with lots of long-lasting, high quality clothes rather than the second-hand charity shop finds I have now. That way I could choose pieces I liked rather than what was available in the charity shop that day.
I'd have my nails done as I can't afford that regularly at the moment.
