8 best beauty gifts for Valentine’s Day, according to a beauty editor
You can still get them in time for your V-Day dinner
By Letty Seah -
While you can’t go wrong with chocolates and flowers, spoiling her with some of the most coveted V-Day beauty gifts certainly won’t hurt either. Ahead, we’ve put together a list of some of the prettiest makeup, skincare and fragrances she’ll gladly receive.
Wear your heart on your sleeve (and your pulse points). This super-slim solid perfume houses one of maison’s most timeless scents, Miss Dior, a fruity floral concoction of zesty blood orange, mandarin, delicate lily of the valley and woody patchouli. Rub it on your wrists, behind your ears, the nape of your neck and decolletage.
Buy flowers for their vanity, not their vase. Jo Malone’s Rose & Magnolia Cologne marries voluptuous rose de mai and rich rose damascena and a sensual base of patchouli and amber.
Set the mood with a lotion that features a juicy blend of cherry and cherry flower extract.
Your special someone will receive four gifts in one, with this glow-giving skincare set from J-beauty brand SK-II. The set contains the cult-favourite Facial Treatment Essence and travel-sized versions of its Clear Lotion, Gentle Cleanser and Skinpower Advanced Cream.
Nothing says “I love you” quite like a decadent burger. Even better, this hardworking vegan bath bomb from LUSH features two cherry-scented burger buns, a sicilian lemon-scented burger patty bubble bar and two rhubarb and custard scented soaps.
Will this rosy bronze cheek stain live up to its hype and name? You can be the judge.
Your fresh blooms might wither in a few days, but just like your relationship, this rose-infused lipstick (damascena essence oil, rose centifolia extract and absolue perpetual rose) is built to last. The best part? This nourishing formula flatters just about every skin tone.
Celebrate “her” with an arrangement of roses on February 14 – well, sort of. Perfect for date nights, this gourmand fragrance combines zesty berries with a bouquet violet, jasmine and a base of grounding amber. Just for V-day, the scent comes adorned with pink petals for an added romantic touch.
