Glow Up for Love: The Ultimate Valentine’s and Galentine’s Day Beauty Guide

January 15, 2025 by Juliann Leave a Comment

Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, and whether you’re planning a dreamy date with your significant other, hosting a fabulous Galentine’s Day soirée or just wanting to pamper yourself a little- it’s the perfect excuse to treat yourself to a little extra TLC. After all, there’s no better way to celebrate love—including self-love—than by indulging in some luxurious beauty rituals that leave you glowing, confident, and ready to take on the day (or night) like the radiant queen you are.

Step 1: Set the Mood

Every great pampering session starts with the right ambiance. Light a candle, pour yourself a glass of sparkling rosé (or beverage of your choice), and queue up a playlist that makes you feel like the star of your own romance novel. Need inspiration? Look for a soy-based candle with notes of rose, vanilla, or amber for that romantic touch. Pro tip: A bath bomb with moisturizing ingredients like shea butter or coconut oil is a perfect way to elevate your soak. Don’t forget to show some love to your body with a rich, buttery moisturizer that makes your skin baby soft.

Must-Have: Molton Brown Delicious Rhubarb and Rose Body Wash & Lotion Gift Set . Tempt your senses with this vivacious bath and body set, flourishing with tantalizingly tart rhubarb leaf, rose, and zesty grapefruit.

Step 2: Treat Your Skin

Glowing skin is always in, and Valentine’s Day is no exception. Start with a gentle exfoliation to slough off dead skin cells and reveal a fresh, radiant complexion. Follow up with a hydrating sheet mask that leaves your skin plump and dewy. Be sure to always use a high-quality moisturizer both morning and night after cleansing!

Must-Have: Bioré Nose + Face Deep Cleansing Pore Strips to tackle blackheads and unclog pores, leaving your skin visibly smoother.

Step 3: Glam It Up

Whether you’re heading out for a candlelit dinner or a movie marathon (by yourself or with your besties), the right makeup can take your look from every day to stunning. Start with a weightless, buildable foundation that effortlessly conceals and corrects. Add a swipe of blush for a rosy flush, a swipe of iridescent glossy balm for luscious lips, and finish with a bold eyeliner for that perfect eye-catching effect- VA-va-va-voom!

Must-Haves:

No Makeup Makeup Foundation: A weightless, buildable formula in a cream-balm texture that conceals and camouflages seamlessly.

DIBS Beauty Duet Baked Blush: This all-in-one blush, topper, and highlighter amplifies your glow while hydrating your skin.

DIBS Beauty Go To Glossy Balm: Pack on shine with none of the icky stick. Infused with ultra-fine shimmer, it adds a kiss of iridescence to your lips.

Step 4: Hair Perfection

Nothing says “I’m ready to slay” like a fabulous hairstyle. Whether you’re going for effortless waves, a sleek ponytail, or a voluminous blowout, make sure your hair looks as good as you feel. Prep with a nourishing hair mask the night before, and don’t skimp on a finishing cream to perfect the look.

Must-Haves: KERASILK Finishing Cream: This luxurious cream provides an irresistibly soft, touchable finish with a multifaceted shine effect. Pair with these adorable Scünci Unbreakable Heart Clips for a cute and festive touch to your hairstyle.

Step 5: Nail the Details

The finishing touches matter! Give yourself an at-home manicure and pedicure with a pop of festive color—think classic red, playful pink, or even a chic metallic. Add a little shimmer to your collarbone and shoulders with a luminous body oil or glow stick and spritz on a perfume that makes you feel like the main character. And don’t forget your smile!

Must-Haves:

Hello Sunday The Shimmer One SPF45 Face and Body Mineral Sunscreen Glow Stick with Hyaluronic Acid: This shimmer stick provides head to toe protection & an on-the-go, hydrated glow. Doubles as a skin highlighter for face & body to leave you radiant!

Made By Dentists Teeth Whitening Powder: Professionally formulated to lift stubborn stains for a brighter smile.Care.ē.on Layover Lip Mask: Hydrate and nourish your lips with this shea butter and moringa seed oil-infused lip treatment, for soft, kissable lips.

Step 6: Enjoy Every Moment

The most important part of your Valentine’s or Galentine’s Day beauty routine? Savoring the process. Pampering isn’t just about the end result; it’s about taking time for yourself and celebrating everything that makes you uniquely beautiful. So go ahead, indulge in those luxurious products, bask in your glow, and remember: You’re worth it.
