Health & Beauty Pick: Valentine's Day Beauty Products

By Nicelise
Whether you have a hot date or are spending the night with your single lady friends, you still want to look good and not worry about fixing your makeup while you're out.
You want to look fresh, pretty and sexy without looking like you tried all that hard. Here are some products that I've tried and love that will help you achieve a pretty look without a ton of work. They also happen to be pretty inexpensive products that you can pick up in most drug stores and beauty specialty stores. I've found most of these products at Target and Ulta as well.

I've blogged about this product before, but it really would be a great addition to your Valentine's Day beauty routine. You never have to reapply this lip stain even after eating, drinking and kissing. It has a nifty nourishing balm at one end to keep your lips looking moist and kissable. You can find this lip stain in most drug stores and beauty specialty stores.


Rimmel London's Moisture Renew Lipstick is my all time favorite lipstick. It goes on smooth, keeps your lips moist and the color stays on for a long time. My favorite colors are rose blush, a natural pink, and dreamy, a pretty neutral tone. This lipstick is available in most drug stores and beauty specialty stores.


ELF cream eyeliner is a great alternative to liquid liner -- it is much easier to apply. It also doesn't smudge or smear once it's applied. The trick to applying this product is to start with a thin line and then build it up. This product is also available at drug stores and I've found it at several Target stores.


This is a product I just started using. It is like two mascaras in one. With Rimmel London's Day 2 Night mascara, the first wand adds length, but I've found that it works really well to separate lashes. The second wand is bigger and has more mascara on it to create volume. What lady wouldn't want bold and fluttering eyelashes on Valentine's Day?


NYX's Tango with Bronzing Powder gives your face a bronzed, shimmering and radiantly healthy look. Apply this bronzer where the sun would naturally hit your face. There are several versions of the tango bronzing powders -- some are mosaics, but the one I've been using is called Bronze Ensemble. This product line is available at beauty specialty stores, including Ulta.


This Physicians Formula Happy Booster Glow &  Mood Boosting blush looks like it was made for Valentine's Day. It's an ultra soft and blendable blush powder with blush tones and a pop of color to give your face a pop of color. This blush has reflective pearls in it to highlight, contour while adding radiance to your look. Apply this blush on the apples of your cheeks, where you naturally blush. It also claims to contain a happy boost blend of natural extracts that are supposed to promote a feeling of happiness, which could help those out feeling blue on this holiday. You can find this product line in drug stores and beauty specialty stores.
