10 Valentine’s Day Makeup Ideas That Will Slay

Love is in the air…and by that I mean the love for makeup. Make your Valentine’s Day makeup stand out this holiday with some of the year’s hottest trends and classic looks. Whether you are spending it with your SO or your friends there are so many ways to style your makeup for this Valentine’s Day. Check out the list below for some of the best Valentine’s Day makeup ideas around.

1. Red Lip

I mean, did I really even need to say it? A bold red lip goes with Valentine’s Day like chocolates do, they just are a part of it, okay? Keep the rest of your makeup neutral if you want the red lip to really stand out. Don’t be afraid to try a different shade of red than usual or throw a gloss on over rather than leaving it matte.

2. Pink Lip

If the classic red lip isn’t for you, thats okay too! There a wide range of pink shades that you can choose from. Pink is also a great way to still have a pop of color on your lips without it being too powerful, especially if you chose to go for a bolder eye.

3. Glitter Eye

This Valentine’s Day makeup idea adds a sparkle to your look. Add as much or as little glitter as you want, depending on how bold of an eye you are going for. Golds often compliment red well if you want to pair this with a red lip.

4. Dewy Skin

Winter brings drier skin and doesn’t leave us with much of a glow. Creating a dewy look is a great way to make your skin seem luminous, especially against a candle-lit dinner.

5. Smokey Eye

The smokey eye is a look that may never go out of style and for good reason. If you are going on a dinner date, this sultry look will pair well.

6. Red Smokey Eye

Change up the classic smokey eye and add a twist. As we already know, red screams Valentine’s Day so why not combine these two classics.

7. Pink Shadow

Pink, once again, is the best way to achieve a Valentine’s Day inspired look without packing all of the punch that red has. (The Two Faced Just Peachy Palette would a great way to complete this look.)

8. Berry Lip

A berry lip will definitely grab a special someones attention. Berry lip color is perfect for a darker Valentine’s Day makeup vibe.

9. Colorful Liner

Colorful liner is an easy and different way to add a pop of color to your eyes. Try to incorporate a color from your outfit to connect the whole look together!

10. Natural Look

Makeup is great and all but wearing a more natural look might be just what you are looking for this holiday. If you want to let your natural beauty shine then the natural look is the way to go!!
