This one's for the girls who want to look effortlessly stunning while pretending they 'woke up like this.' Think fresh, dewy skin, feathered brows, and a subtle pink lip.?How to achieve it? Go for a lightweight skin tint, a touch of concealer, and a dewy cream blush.
Bonus tip: A clear or tinted brow gel will keep your brows looking fluffy and natural.
Blush is the main character this season, and Valentine's Day is the perfect excuse to pack it on. Soft pinks, corals, and even a bold berry flush are in!?How to achieve it? Apply cream or liquid blush to the apples of your cheeks and a little on your nose for that sun-kissed effect.
?Bonus tip: Blend your blush into your crease for a monochromatic moment.
If subtle isn't your thing, this one's for you. Smoked-out liner, fluttery lashes, and a glossy pout? Absolute Valentine's perfection.?How to achieve it? Use a dark brown or black eyeshadow to smoke out your liner, and finish with voluminous lashes.
?Bonus tip: A glossy lip over your matte lipstick gives that perfect 'just-kissed' effect.
