Valentines products to simply fall in love with!

Into February already and love is in the air....

If you are heading out with a loved one or fancy trying something different, then I have a few products below that you simply cannot do without.

Lime Crime Velvetines - Suedeberry Lipstick





  
 
A gorgeous light matte red lipstick which looks stunning when applied. 
I love the packaging, it would be a great present for someone or look good in any makeup bag. 
Applied so easily to my lips, although it is matte, my lips did not feel dry upon application. 
The lipstick is totally waterproof and long lasting, so pucker up!!
This is the second most popular lipstick in the Lime Crime Velvetines range. The first is red velvet which is a darker red. 
Totally addicted already! A new shade has just been launched in the range, pink velvet a fab bright pink colour which looks so fresh for spring time. 
I would recommend exfoliating the lips and applying a lip balm before using, just to make sure once the product dries, it does not pick up on any dry areas. Much like most lipsticks really, a smooth base is a must for kissable lips!
Priced at £13.00, if you are anything like me, you will wonder why you waited so long to try it. Photographs really well too! Perfect for those selfies!









  


Illamasqua Nail Varnish - Untold

 













A red glitter which can be used on its own like a clear varnish which has a red sparkle to it. I decided to use it on top of a OPI shade I had in my collection, perfect for valentines.. Wine and Dine. 
I simply used my normal base coat, applied two coats of OPI Wine and Dine and then applied one coat of the red glitter. To give a nice shiny finish, I applied a glossy top coat to seal it all in nicely. 
Very impressed with this shade, so pretty, would work for Valentines, Christmas inparticular or any special occasion. Love it!
Priced at £14.50, this would last you a while as you only need one coat on top of a shade of choice. Get creative and add a pop of sparkle!









 










Illamasqua Precision Gel Liner
















A cream jet black eyeliner, a popular product with every makeup addict!
Gives a liquid liner finish, so easy to apply and goes on really smoothly. No drying affect, just glides on giving the perfect cat eyed look. 
The line is waterproof and long lasting, perfect for brides or those occasions where you just need to be able to rely on your eyeliner to see you through to the end of the day with minimal top up. 
I usually use MAC gel liner but I am now converted and will be using this product on my clients! 
Priced at £18.00 this pot will last you and you will keep dipping in for more. 
I hope soon they release some more colours to try!
Use with a fine liner brush to apply and make sure the lids are primed before hand.

 












Well ladies....Whatever you have planned on 14th or you really are not interested in valentines day and think its a load of old rubbish, a little beauty splurge with one of these beauties you will certainly not regret.
