You can make Valentine Day a grand success by planning your
'dressing up' well in advance. Whether you plan a romantic night out
with the one you love, or a night out with the girls, don't hesitate to
try these tips, and have a great Love Day!
This
Valentine's day you can show your partner that you are a pretty face and
more. Follow the tips below to get the right looks right on time:
What to wear: Petite dresses that are fitted and end above the knee, such as shift,
wrap or A-line dresses are very flattering. Mini-skirts that sit on a
woman’s natural waist are also a good fashion choice when deciding what
to wear. It really helps to know if you are going to be outdoors or
indoors, if it is going to is a formal date or an informal hanging out
at the local pub. If it is outdoors, make sure you are warm and cute in
your woolies rather than ridiculous and cold in bare shoulders.
Hair: Simply set hair on large hot rollers and allow to cool. Pull rollers
out and brush through mane. If extra-long locks aren't already you, try
clipping in a few human-hair extensions for added volume and length. If
you want an extra fem look tie a scarf. Wrap it like a headband, around
a pony or all over your head. Be sure to go for a color that makes your
outfit 'pop'. For more on hair styles, click here.
Face: Dust a powder foundation all over the
face, being careful to blend well. Use a foundation that gives a really
natural glow with great coverage.
Eyes: Sweep a soft shimmer beige brown shadow on entire lid extending up to
the crease. Use a soft chocolate brown eye pencil on top and wedging
between lashes, making a thicker line on outer corner, then blend top
line with a soft brush. Apply false eye lashes on top lashes in a edgy
style depending on personal taste. Make sure you measure and cut the
lashes accordingly to your eye shape.
Cheeks: Using a cream blush with finger tips apply in a pink or red tone on
apple of cheeks, then follow with the same color in a powder blush and
apply on top of cream blush for a hot sexy blushing cheek. You can also
use powder blush to create a cute rosy complexion and heighten the color
in your cheeks.
Lips: Keep your lips soft and kissable with
lip gloss or flavored chap sticks. If you are hesitant to wear bright
red lipstick, wear a soft red gloss instead. Valentine’s Day is all
about kissing the one you love. Be sure to keep your lips hydrated with
shea butter. This natural ingredient keeps your lips smoother longer
than petroleum. Use your lip liner on top of lipstick. This helps to
avoid the oblivious line around the lips when your gloss comes off.
Lining after your lip color also allows for easier application and blend
ability. For fuller lips, add shimmer.
Add a scent: Spray the flirtiest perfume you could have found on your pulse points.
Walk through the spritz to envelop yourself in the fragrance.
Pick a purse to match with your clothes and equip it with makeup you might have to repair.
Put on the smile: flirty or friendly- whatever the occasion calls for!
In the words of
Christa Jean, there are four rules a petite woman should follow to create a balanced look.
• If wearing super tight pants, choose a flowing top.
• If wearing a fitted revealing top, choose wider leg pants or a flowing skirt.
• If wearing a mini, be more modest on top.
• If wearing a super low cut top, cover up your legs.
