Law 1: Better Late Than Ugly
Running late? Not a problem—as long as your eyeliner knows its way around a cat eye. Tardiness is forgiven, but a bad hair day is not. Arrive fashionably late, with the perfect cat eye, and know that your arrival will be the start of the meeting.
Law 2: Let Your Skin Do the Talking
Why be verbose when your cheekbones communicate eloquence? A well-hydrated glow says more than any well-rehearsed speech ever could.
Law 3: Perfect Your Winged Look Before Making Your Point
An impeccably executed eyeliner informs the room you’ve done your homework, while your lipliner underlines your statement.
Law 4: Your Manicure is Your Message
Clean nails announce, "I have my life together," without uttering a word. But should they whisper a wisp of dark polish or, dare I suggest, a dazzling little shimmer, they sing harmonies of elegance.
Law 5: Stay (toxic) positive
Smile wide, even through clenched teeth. It’s all about projecting a world where your yoga pants perfectly match your stress level.
Law 6: Let Them Eat Cake of “always being right”
People love to be right. Offer them the cake to be so - sometimes it’s sweeter than winning an argument. Your radiant smile and slim waistline will handle the rest.
Law 7: Eyebrows So Bold They Speak a Whole Language of Their Own.
People don’t like to hear bold words - so let your eyebrows do the talking.
Law 8: The Art of Listening
Your Beauty is just skin deep, and if you have nothing to say because all you do is your 10 step beauty routine, then practise “the art of listening” - doesn’t”this sound fabulous - so Shut up and show genuine interest in others by listening attentively, this will make you more appealing and relatable. Just keep in mind that 80 percentage of the stuff you will hear might be bullshit. But as long as you smile, stay silent and look pretty - you’re having a great conversation. So, master the art of smiling politely through 80% nonsense.
Law 9: Know Your Angles
Whether for photos or real-life interactions, knowing your best angles can help you present yourself in the most flattering light.
Law 10: Pretend to be Stupid
People are easily offended by your outshining appearance, they might hate you for that - but never dim your outside light, honey! Just pretend you are stupid and they will have something to comfort their ugly ego next to your shining beauty. Let them. Ease their fragile egos by playing dumb. They’ll never suspect you’re the brightest bulb in the box.
Law 11: Your scars are ugly don’t show them
Oh gorgeous, you have inner scars which seems impossible to heal, or haven't healed yet as you find yourself in the constant battle of life. Put on a Joker grin and hide them! The truth is, No one cares. For a hot second they might confirm their own self serving Bia of being a helpful person - and then they will run “to protect their energies”. Do yourself the favour of covering up your inner scars as if you would with a red spot on your skin. Let’s face it: who has the energy to hold space for someone else's drama?
Law 12: Run Faster or Learn how to fight
If you are a girl suffering from Pretty Privilege, people will try to take advantage of you - almost every second. So be aware. Forest Gump or Karate Kid - whatever suits your personal preferences. Just make sure you are ready. And if you are a male: well, you would probably not suffer from Pretty Privilege if you would not already own one of these sporty skills.
Law 13: Embrace your trust issues
Your beauty will increase the urge in the people around you to overdose the lies they are already telling to themselves.
Law 14: Don’t make compliments to others and their looks
(except they are on the same level than you - doubt it)
Compliments are often misconstrued. Why risk it when you’re already the topic of their insecurities? After all the intentions of making a pure compliment won’t always be received by the ugly dug in front of you wearing an overpriced handbag to balance things out. They might think you are joking about them, or throw hundreds of compliments back - while they are busy projecting their insecurities on you.
Law 15: Know when to leave - Bright Light blinds
People will feel blended by you if you shine for too long. You don’t want them to be annoyed by your light - so know when to leave and let them miss you in the darkness. Too much of your glow might cause headaches.
Law 16: Take your supplements and use your anti aging cream
Remember, once you’re pretty, you must stay pretty. Age gracefully or die trying.

Law 17: Don’t hide baby girl!
Feeling exhausted from the attention? Pretty Privilege Society is with you. Life can be exhausting, remember the Joker and Marilyn Monroe saying “A smile is the best makeup any girl can wear.” Count your blessings, and remember, society loves a good Joker grin. Keep showing up - people are too busy by themselves, they will simply forget about you - no matter how beautiful you are - you have to keep reminding them.
Law 18: If they hate you they Love you.
In the twisted tango of admiration and envy, remember that hate is just another form of love. How is the saying “there is no love without hate…” Well, this would also mean there is no hate without love. And what is even the difference in a world where we have to stay toxic positive to be healthy.
Law 19: Be fine being misinterpreted
People will offer you gifts because of your beauty - obviously you should receive them - (if not you would be in your masculine energy) - but as soon you receive them, you might be considered as a “gold digger” or taking advantage of someone or a situation. Choose wisely and let them. Also be aware of the fact that when you ignore men they might offer you the world or at least say so - if you kindly remind them of their promises just to know when your world will be solved by an other superhero - you will be perceived as “using them”, “demanding” (…). It’s okay, let them. Just go back to ignoring until a superhero will hold justice to his words.
Law 20: Don’t let their compliments affect your beauty routine
Commit to your beauty routine only, not to the compliments. Today’s compliments don’t guarantee tomorrow’s beauty. Stay true to your beauty routine. Loyalty is everything.
