Love is in the air this upcoming week and I am sure you want to knock your man's socks off for your special Valentine celebration.
Apply a light moisturizer to the face before you sponge on your foundation. My new favorite is the Maybelline Instant Age Rewind which also has a coordinating concealer. It gently eases lines and creases with goji berry extracts added to firm the skin and add elasticity for a glowing complexion. The low price point is great for such a high quality makeup. Dust lightly with Rimmel Stay Matte transparent powder to set and control shine.
Use an angled brush to add blush. A soft shade of rose is suggested when going for a dramatic lip. I suggest Rimmel Lasting Finish Blush in Santa Rose. Apply to the apple of the cheek first and blend lightly up the sides of the temple.
Go softer on the eyes with a natural eyeshadow trio in shades of taupe. Rimmel Glam Eye's Trio in Orion is silky smooth and blends well. Line with Rimmel soft kohl pencil in jet black and smudge gently. You can find their products in Walmart at 150 Harrison Avenue in Kearny New Jersey or at

Top off with a thickening mascara in black. I can't sing enough praises about Lancome's Hypnose Drama Full Body Mascara. With a price point of 26 dollars it is expensive but well worth it.
Nothing will send Cupid's arrow straight to his heart faster than a bold and kissable mouth. To honor the occasion I suggest a daring red shade for the lips.
Finish your Valentine's day look with Milani's retractable lip liner in Most Natural. No sharpening is required and it goes on smoothly. I am a firm believer in lining the lips with a shade close to your lip color. This will guarantee that if a little lipstick comes off during dinner you will not be left with that telltale lip line around your mouth. The alternative option is to fill in the entire mouth with just the Milani Easyliner in the shade of your choice and top it off with a sparkling gloss. Cherry Pie is a great true red and you can give a finishing touch with my absolute favorite lipshine which is the Buzzworthy gloss in Busy Bee. I have been known to search every store in all of New Jersey to find this elusive item. Or you can order it through their website at http://www.milanicosmetics.com.
Now love is in the air for the romantic evening ahead.
