Now that Teresa Giudice has been released from her 15-month jail sentence early, she is concentrating on her post-prison life. As any good housewife from New Jersey would do, her first step is to get an at-home spray tan.

The "Real Housewives of New Jersey" star plans to get right back into her old glam regimen with treatments starting with the spray tan, sources told People. Appearance is very important to the reality star, who took extra time primping herself this morning before she was released from the Connecticut prison. Giudice even had her lawyer James J. Leonard Jr. bring her an outfit to change into before she left and was seen leaving with a full face of makeup.

"She took a little while to come out so looked like she took some time to get herself together," a source said. "She wanted to make sure she looked good when she came out."

The Bravo star was released from prison early Wednesday morning, just a day before Christmas Eve, and was reunited with her husband Joe Giudice and their four daughters. The couple's eldest daughter Gia, 14, took to her Twitter account to express her excitement about her mother returning home after 11 months. "Welcome back," Gia wrote along with a beaming-face emoji.

The 14-year-old was up early Wednesday morning preparing for her mother's arrival, HNGN previously reported. Giudice's lawyer also mentioned that hardly anyone in the family got any sleep the night before her release.

He also said that Giudice wanted to share a message with everyone: "'Merry Christmas. Happy New Year....all of you should go be with your families and your loved ones.'"
