I’ve been so excited to share this Valentine’s makeup post with you! I got together with celebrity makeup artist, Vivi’s Makeup, to create two very different and equally as incredible looks for your Valentine’s Day.
Whether you plan to spend the night with your date or with friends (like me!), then hopefully one of these two looks will inspire you.

Look 2: the Valentine’s Vixen
Can you believe that this look is the same as the previous one, but with a lip? It’s amazing how a strong lip colour can completely transform your whole face. I personally love my lips over-lined, but it’s all down to personal opinion.

I’d love to know which you prefer, and also if you enjoyed this post as we might start doing more looks for you if so.
Have an amazing day whatever you end up doing! And don’t forget to check out my Valentine’s gift guide and 5 ways to wear outfit posts if you haven’t already.
For someone who claims not to love Valentine’s Day, I’ve really gone in on the posts, haha!
I’ve got to give a massive shoutout to Oscar May for photographing and editing me so well too! He shoots all my blog content, and he’s the best of the best.
Speak to you soon, x
I like the look 2: the Valentine’s Vixen 🙂
Make up I’d wear for a date or valentines date would be Hopless Romantic. I like natural and subtle as it’s always a winner 🙂
Thanks Chelsea. Yeah I like natural too, although I find it weird to have nothing on my lips. x
Number 1 is so cute
Thanks Alice. 🙂
I’m going to start doing more makeup looks I think. xx
I love the first one sooo much. Really enhances your features in a subtle way.
Aww, thank you. That’s so nice to hear especially as I was worried it might be a bit too light - I’m so used to things on my lips!
Love the Valentines Vixen look 😍❤💋
