Beauty Blog: Your Perfect Valentine’s Day Make-Up

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Wake Forest chapter.

It’s that time of year again. Love is in the air, and Valentine’s Day is only days away! Whether you’re planning for a romantic date with your significant other, or having a fun-filled Galentine’s day with your best buds, these tips can add a little bit of love to your daily look. 

1. Sweeten up your lids with a soft touch of pink or a warmer mauve tone. There is no need for Lady-Gaga-at-the-Super-Bowl levels of red, but a slight hint can warm up your look.

2. When it comes to eyeliner, a smudged lining on top accompanied by a slight winged tip can keep the look soft and sweet, rather than too intense. 

3. Depending on the vibrancy of  color on your lids, a light lipstick can be a great finishing touch. If you went heavier on lid color, sticking to a natural or light tone for your lips can be the perfect complement. If you went simpler on the lids, you can be a bit more adventurous with the lip color, going for a deeper burgundy or wine hue. 

No matter what your plans, changing up your look can most definitely put you in the Valentine’s Day spirit!
