Valentine's Beauty

For some reason, Valentine's Day seems to be a somewhat controversial holiday, especially among women. Every year, there are couples basking in the glow of their togetherness, and singles either looking on wistfully, or declaring it an event created by Halmark to sell cards. While I've only spent a few Valentine's with a guy, (one was a first date!) it's always been a fun occasion for me. For singles, I think it's a great excuse to pamper yourself, or get dolled up with your friends. Here are some Valentine's themed goodies to get you in the spirit!

This is a drugstore product that I've seen hyped like crazy, especially in magazines coming out for February. It's the Physician's Formula Happy Booster Mood & Glow Boosting Blush. Not only is it a pretty shade of pink with adorable hearts all over it, but it is scented with violet, and it is infused with a plant extract that is supposed to mimick the effects of your body's natural endorphins. I'm not sure about the endorphin mimicking effects, but I feel happy just looking at this blush, which is good enough for me!


This pretty pink lipcolor just came out with MAC's Peacocky collection. Pink is always better than red if your looking to get some kisses. This product isn't sticky, and has a nice consistency, perfect for a date, or girls who hate getting hair stuck in their lip gloss!


This perfume is from a company called Booty Parlor. Not only is it the perfect size to fit in your clutch, but it is infused with phermones, oh la la. 

Flirty false lashes are a must. Any brand is great, I am a fan of semi-natural looking lashes, especially ones that flare out in the corners. These Make Up Forever lashes are so pretty!




Lastly, for those staying in and relaxing, is this candle from Diptyque. It's rose scented and comes in a cute pink mini jar, with an impressive 30 hour burn time. 




Hope everyone enjoys their Valentine's Day! Let me know if there are any prodcuts your looking forward to this February.
