Every girl knows that a good day, starts with a good hair day. Pumping up the volume will not only give your hair a boost, but your confidence as well.

1. I use Conair‘s vent brush whenever I need a little lift in my do.  Vent brushes are great because they help to dry the hair faster when blow drying, all while creating volume at the root.  Once dry and styled as desired, use this multifunctional brush to backcomb the roots for a more dramatic volume enhancement.  Gently run the tip of the brush over your new coif to give it a polished finish!

2. This shadow is for the daring! Makeup Forever Star Powder in Iridescent Fuschia 951 is a loose pigment that can be worn all over the eye for a bold splash of electric pink, or along the lash line for just a pop of colour.  The versatility of this product is what will make it worth while: wear it as a blush, or mix in some clear gloss and sport it on your pout!

  • Tip: dampening your brush will intensify the colour of any pigment upon application!

3. & 4. Tickle your cheeks with a touch of pink this Valentine’s Day. 3.Physicians Formula Happy Booster Glow & Mood Boosting Blush and 4.Hard Candy Blush Crush in Living Doll were two I can’t deny as my favourites.  Both unique in their own ways, each are designed to help enhance and amplify your natural glow so you can shine all night long!

5. & 6. Looking to pucker up with pink? 5.MAC‘s Saint Germain is a bold and iconic bubble gum pink.  This lipstick has an unusual hue that will allow you to stand out, but is soft enough to still give you that sweet pout you’re looking for.  Wishing to ravish in red? 6.Joe Fresh‘s Ruby is a bold choice (but not on your wallet!) This matte lipstick will draw your S.O. in with an intense burst of red that will tempt for hours.

  • Tip: for colour that will last, line your entire lip with a lip liner that is a shade darker or lighter (your preference) than your lipstick before applying your colour directly on top!
Going for a more subtle approach? These lovely lip enhancers give your luscious lips the attention they crave, without the intensity.

7.L’Oreal Colour Riche Balm in Pink Satin is a nourishing balm that has a stunning powder pink undertone and buildable colour for a custom look that reflects you!

8.L’Oreal Colour Juice in Raspberry Smash is another buildable lip colour found in red, but this time in a gloss! This high shine formula will draw attention to your lips without the bold stain that a lipstick leaves behind.

9.Bath and Body Works Liplicious Tasty Lip Color in Best Kiss  caters to many of the senses in this one little tube.  This gloss goes on clear and turns a perfect pink that is light and sheer. It has a high gloss sheen and is silky and smooth on your lips.  The strawberry scent can be tasted (on your lips or another!) and is a must have for your Valentine’s night out!

10. Leave your body soft to the touch, and smelling irresistible for hours with Victoria’s Secret: Pink Body Lotion in Warm & Cozy. This naturally infused body lotion is my favourite for a special night out.  The easy to use pump keeps your hands free to lather your body in this rich moisturizing lotion that carries notes of vanilla and peonies for a warm yet refreshing scent!

11. & 12. From the tips of your fingers to your itty bitty toes, don’t forget to give your digits the TLC that they deserve! Rock out a royal red by 11.OPI in The Thrill Of Brazil or play up a berry pink by 12.N.Y.C. in MoMA that is not only pretty for your nails, but also for your penny!

From subtle stain on your lips to shocking shadow on your eyes, shine from head to toe! Whether you’re spending this Valentine’s Day with a special someone or out with the girls, there’s no reason you should enter the room unnoticed!
