It's February 1. Which means there are exactly 13 days left to Valentine's Day. We're hoping assuming you've got your outfit all picked out. Next up is your beauty look. Luckily, the runways are teeming with inspiration when it comes to Valentine's Day beauty looks that are sure to make the right impression.
Whether you're feeling a subdued makeup and hair pairing or in a more dramatic mood, we've got your back. When it comes to makeup, you can choose if you want your eyes, lips or even cheeks to be the focal point. Naturally, there are lots of red lips to go around. But we're not just talking the ruby kind. Try darker crimson colors to really up the ante. Or experiment with a diffused or blurred effect. You can favor red eye makeup or break the Valentine's Day mold with something that shimmers. A subtle swipe of blush is sometimes all you need to make a lovely look.
Maybe you've decided to make a hair statement. Slide on some sparkling barrettes or style braids with rings to really turn heads. Top knots and low ponytails are always safe bets. Make the former more interesting with a few loose, curled strands. Weave in a little gold thread to really make the latter shine.
Here are the most stunning Valentine's Day beauty looks to try no matter how you're celebrating.
For a truly harmonious look, add a touch of shimmering eyeliner to the inner corners of your eyes and apply a dewy pink lipstick. Wear your hair parted to the side and braid a skinny section to tuck behind your ear near the part.
What's better than one flashy barrette? Why two, of course. Balance out the look by pairing clips of different sizes and somewhat subtle cat eyes.
A braided high ponytail is always in style. Parallel your slicked-back strands with a glossy pout.
Valentine's Day is a great excuse to try out red mascara. Keep the rest of your face bare so your eyes remain the focus.
Mix things up by swiping on some sparkling pink eyeshadow on your eyelids and line your lower lash lines with purple eyeliner. Finish things off with shiny pink lips.
Skip painting your ears red, but cover each eyelid with a strong swipe of crimson. Complete the look with barely-there pink lipstick.
Accent a top knot by framing your face with a few curly tendrils. A subtle swipe of blush on each cheek and pink lips round out the look.
Embrace a vampy dark cherry lip in honor of the holiday. Pick an almost vinyl lacquer to enhance the effect.
Wrap up side braids with interlocking rings. It gives the illusion of dangling earrings without weighing down your earlobes. Work in reddish smoky eyes and clear lip gloss to polish things off.
Simply twist and tuck your locks into a low bun secured at the nape of your neck.
Lightly apply blush on the apples of your cheeks for a flushed effect. A slightly dewy pink lip punctuates the look.
Highlight an elaborately braided updo with a colorful headband worn upside down underneath. Full eyebrows and a diffused burgundy lip bring it all together.
Focus a fuchsia-colored lipstick on your bottom lip and just in the middle of your upper lip.
Use neon red eyeliner to draw attention to just the top inner corners of your eyes. Then finish things off by applying a matte pink lipstick.
Take a sectioned ponytail up a notch by including shiny gold thread.
Don't be heavy-handed when it comes to mascara and rock a brick red lipstick for an old-school romantic take.
Go with more subdued smoky eyes by slightly smudging the eyeshadow under your eyes and work in a little gold eyeliner in the inner corners. Add in a pink pout to wrap up the look.
A wine-colored lip is perfect for Valentine's Day. Let the shade speak for itself by keeping the rest of your beauty look minimal.
Glide on silver eyeliner under each eye and in the inner corners. That's all you need.
Feeling really brave? Try a two-tone pout. First swipe on black lipstick, then add a light red line on your bottom lip.
Contain gold eyeshadow or gold leaf to the center of your eyelids. Use a juicy lip gloss to also make your pout pop.
Go heavy with the black eyeliner by surrounding your eyes. Then introduce a tap of sparkle on the upper inner corners and complete the look with a petal pink pout.
Up for experimentation? Apply a cool pastel lilac lipstick to your lips and call it a night.
Pair two-tone cat eyes with a diffused pink pout. There's something very punk rock yet demure about the combination.
Amp up your go-to red lipstick by dabbing on some golden accents. No other makeup is necessary.
Bring out your inner ice princess by sporting icy purple eyeshadow and a coordinating frosted lip.
