Valentines Glam

Well it's that time again! The infamous Valentines Day is right around the corner. I know that most people think it's the silliest holiday, regardless if they have someone to share it with or not but I've always been a sucker for 'the most romantic day of the year' even though it never turns out to be the most romantic day of the year because us being girls, we fill it with the Notebook love story romance sky high expectations... which we all need to STOP because lets face it, Noah Calhoun isn't going to be knocking on our door to sweep us off our feet anytime soon. This year I'll be working but none the less I'm happy it's another day I get to celebrate with my boo and regardless of what time I get home I know I have a handsome face to smooch when I do and that's enough for me. Key the cheesy 'awwww's...

I put together this really simple, soft look that I thought would be perfect for the big day. If you are heading on a hot date with your man, spending the night with girlfriends or just putting yourself together to drink wine on the couch by yourself and watch re-runs of Sex and The City, you'll be able to achieve this and feel damn good by doing it



Brows...

Who would have guessed it? My one and only... Dipbrow! I wear Soft Brown by Anastasia Beverly Hills everyyyy day

Face...

Primer: Smashbox Hydrating Photoready 
Foundation: Nars Sheer Glow in Ceylan
Concealer: Maybelline Master Conceal in Fair
Powder: Covergirl Translucent
Bronze: Too Faced Milk Chocolate Soleil 
Blush: NYX Flamingo
Highlight: Bobbi Brown Bronze Glow 

Eyes...

Primer: Too Faced Shadow Insurance
Shadows: All Sonia Kashuk Textured Rose Palette which has 4 shades. I used the lightest as my transition shade, the darkest in my crease, and I mixed the two ligher shades with sparkle and put them on my lid -SIDE NOTE OH MY GOD CANADIANS... losing Sonia is the worst part about losing Target, am I right? The only place I could find this palette online was HERE 
Waterline: Rimmel Scandal Eyes in Witness White 
Mascara: Maybelline Lash Sensational
Falsies: Kiss Lashes in Style 01 {I did cut these lashes to make them a bit more whispy for this look. I wished I had Ardell's Demi Wispies at home, but I did not, so I took to the scissors and customized these ones}

Lips...

Lipstick: Revlon Colorburst Cotton Candy
Gloss: Maybelline Color Elixr Petal Blush








"If you ever lose love, don't go out looking for it. 
Reach inside you and recreate what you think you lost.
You are love.
You can't lose you."


Happy Valentines Day, dolls
