3 Elegant Beauty Looks To Try

3 Elegant Beauty Looks To Try

It’s that time of year. When, if you’re one of the lucky few who has a Valentine, everything looks good, flowers are in bloom, you’re constantly smiling and there are handfuls of that happy vibe going around. If you ask me, this ‘happy high’ could last all year long if you have the right person to supply it (and I don’t mean your boyfriend), but if you need Valentine’s Day to make you feel like that, so be it!

At this point, you’ve already decided where you’re going, so it’s time to pick out an outfit and decide what you want to do with your hair and your makeup. Today, we’re bringing you 3 elegant beauty looks that would ideally work all year round, but are absolutely perfect for V-day.

Keep It Light

You don’t want to look like a completely different person on date night, so we suggest you keep it light. Go for a luminous base — think lots of strobe cream and highlighter. For the eyes, a light sparkly eyeshadow and mascara will make your eyes look twinkling and alert. As for your lips, a peachy nude will work wonders. Don’t forget to use some of that highlighter on your shoulders and collar bones.

Peachy Perfection

The peachy eye makeup trend is haute right now and just in time for Valentine’s Day too! It’s a soft romantic shade on your lids that you can top off with some winged eyeliner (optional), and finish it off with nude lips. Remember, soft and subtle is always in.

Valentine Lips

A bold, red lip can never go wrong on Valentine’s Day. Make sure the rest of your face has that no-makeup makeup look going with a full coverage base and some blush. The only thing your eyes need is mascara and individual lashes if you’re in the mood. Let that red pout do all the talking!
