Five ways to boost your beauty routine in February

Delicate rose cheeks are a subtle way to add a youthful glow to the face. Whether you are fifteen or fifty three years old, a wash of sheer blush will add definition to the face without looking like you tried too hard. Unless you are going for the chiseled runway model look, put down the contouring powder and apply a soft petal pink or gentle coral with soft brush strokes on the high points of the face; the cheeks, forehead and chin and nose with a very light hand.Change up your fragrance routine by concocting a unique signature scent. Instead of wearing just your daily perfume of choice, add a dash of floral body cream prior to spritzing your favorite fragrance. The result will be a subtle scent of clean spring flowers without over stimulating you nose, or other noses, with a giant bouquet of floral notes.Often in the aftermath of the hectic winter holiday season, people forget to take care of themselves because the focus is on gifting others. This month, designate a day or two to experimenting with new lip colors, hair textures or nail polish to shake up your daily routine. Make it a point to try a bold lip or a glamorous eye look even if it’s just for a day at work or running errands. You will be surprised how much a new lipstick will change your mood!View the list ยป
