5 Stunning Makeup Looks To Recreate On Valentine’s Day, Whether Or Not You Have A Date
Oh look, February 14th is here. That means a special date with your SO is on the cards. Whether you planned a romantic dinner for them or you are waiting for them to surprise you with a mindblowing date (they better), the important thing is that you sweep them off their feet. You have got to look the best in a sexy outfit, nicely done hair and a gorgeous makeup look. Even if you don’t have a date, we hope you are not spending the day on your couch watching stories of happy couples on social media. Are you? Although Valentine’s Day is romanticized as the day dedicated to love and relationships, it is not necessary that you have a partner. You can simply celebrate the day with your friends or indulge in self-love while looking stunningly single.
While it is a day of love for all those in relationships–happy or complicated–, for singles (gimme hi5), it is just a sappy holiday when the world turns into those romcom movies that you hate, but secretly wish you could star in. You might not have a date, but you can have an amazing time with your girls, Insta-worthy pictures and even score a date with the cute guy standing at the bar checking you out. My point is, whether or not you have a Valentine, this day is worth glamming up, going out and having a gala time, because it’s also a weekend. Since it’s settled that you don’t really need a date for V-day but a trendy and traffic-stopping makeup look, here are some celeb-inspired looks that you can recreate and look fab.
