    Valentine's Day is already just around the corner, and whether you are busy planning a romantic date night or a fun Galentine's celebration, 

    you'll want to start building your event makeup collection so you look and feel your best on the day. And what better way to do that than with a radiant, glowing makeup look?

    Creating a Party-Ready Makeup Look

    Here's a step-by-step radiant makeup tutorial for your Valentine's Day glow-up:

    • Prep Your Skin: Apply a hydrating primer to a clean, moisturised face for the smoothest base for your makeup.

    • Conceal Imperfections: Dot concealer over any blemishes or dark circles, lightly blending in preparation for your foundation.

    • Create a Radiant Base: Choose a foundation or tinted moisturiser that provides a luminous finish. Apply it evenly to your face and neck.

    • Add a Touch of Colour:Dust a demure blush powder to the apples of your cheeks for a soft girl aesthetic. 

    • Highlight Your Features:Chisel out your cheekbones, brow bone and Cupid's bow with a glowing highlighter serum.

    • Define Your Eyes: Use neutral eyeshadows to create a soft, romantic look, then apply the thinnest line of eyeliner followed by mascara to make your eyes pop. 

    • Perfect Your Pout:Choose a lip colour to complement your skin tone. To amp up the romance, soft pink, nude, or berry shades would be perfect.

    Tips from the Professionals

    • Use a luminous foundation or tinted moisturiser for a dewy, radiant base for your makeup.
    • Apply highlighter strategically to accentuate your features and create a natural-looking glow.
    • Choose soft, romantic colours. Opt for eyeshadows, blushes, and lip colours in soft, romantic shades like pink, peach, and nude.
    • Don't forget your brows! Well-groomed brows can help to frame your face and complete your makeup look.
    • Bake your makeup with a setting spray or powder to keep your makeup in place all day and night.
    • For a more dramatic look, add a shimmery liquid eyeshadow to your eyelids.
    • Use a cream blush for a natural, dewy flush.
