The Big Day: Sunday February 14, 2010:
After ripping apart your closet for the perfect outfit, de-stress in the front of the mirror. Josie Maran makes sexy eyes simple—just sweep her velvety eye shadow in Valentine over lids and Chianti in the crease for a romantic approach to smoky eyes.  A touch of Cream Blush in Sunset is gives cheeks a “flushed” color for the night. $20-$22; Sephora.com

Get irresistible, kissable lips with soothing Love Balm by Jurlique. Before applying lip color, hydrate and moisturize lips first with a blend of shea butter, avocado oil, and delicious tangerine oil. $15, Jurlique.com

Channel your inner Kim Kardashian. Apply her new fragrance, KIM KARDASHIAN, on your way out the door, and pop the travel-friendly roller ball fragrance in your bag for mid-date touch ups. The essence evokes Kim’s sultry style, and notes of white soft jasmine, gardenia, and sandalwood are both feminine and intoxicating. $16.00; Sephora.com

Set the mood post-date with the light of a romantic candle. Cozy up to the warm glow of the new Godiva Strawberry Rose candle, inspired by Godiva’s freshly dipped chocolate strawberries (YUM!); the essence of a perfectly ripened, sweet strawberry is enveloped in a base of creamy milk chocolate, accented with delicate rose petals and soft green accords. $23; CandlesOffMain.com

Happy Valentine’s Day!  Hope you have a fabulous time on your date!  Remember, it doesn’t have to be celebrated on the actual day!  Any day is a great day to seduce your man and celebrate your love for him!

    haha, we always stay in. We went out to dinner one year on the actual day and it was pure madness! Now we celebrate on another day or just enjoy the evening at home. It was easier when the kids went to bed at 7….
