Galentine’s Day Favorites from Victoria’s Secret Pink & Heidi Klum Intimates

I wanted to share Valentine’s Day/Galentine’s Day from Victoria’s Secret PINK and Heidi Klum Intimates!

 

5 Step Beauty Prep to an Epic Valentine’s Day Date

One of the biggest date nights of the year is right around the corner which means pre-date prep is in full effect! Start your prep early before your Valentine’s Day date and you’ll be in tip-top shape and full of confidence when the night comes.

See below for five face and body essentials to create luminous skin for the special occasion.

Start your V-Day date night prep by having flawless skin — blemishes are not cute, and it’s best to proactively fight against them instead of trying to heal them after they’ve made their (unwelcome) arrival.

 

Use this powerful cleanser to ensure your skin is squeaky clean, smooth and even in tone.

Try: Dear by Renée® Grapefruit Foaming Wash ($29.95, DearbyRenee.com)

Infused with Grapefruit which helps treat acne and prevent oily skin and Vitamin E antioxidant which helps boost skin’s defense against pollution.

Slather on your favorite hydrating face mask for flawless, date-night-approved skin! Put this on before you hop in the shower, making sure to let the steam work its magic on opening up your pores for an added bonus.

Try: Arbonne Rescue & Renew Detox Face Mask ($44, Arbonne.com)

Creamy French pink clay formula cleanses to draw out impurities from the skin’s surface, resulting in smaller-looking pores! The mask transitions from wet to dry to visibly show where excess sebum is drawn out.

Think of this as the equivalent of a power smoothie for your eyes! A little bit goes a long way since it spreads easily and melts right into skin.

Try: Dear by Renée® Ultra Firming Eye ($69.95, DearbyRenee.com)

This unique eye cream contains a mixture of botanical extracts and caffeine which absorbs beautifully into the skin addressing puffiness, dark circles and areas which lack circulation.

Look radiant and refreshed with super smooth, healthy skin by applying a scrub a couple days before date night. Apply this gentle formula to your skin and slough off dull skin that’s dimming your inner glow — you’ll be left with nothing but luminous goodness.

Try: Ethique Mochaccino Body Polish – Body Scrub & Exfoliator ($14.50, Amazon.com)

Ground Arabica coffee beans paired with cocoa, pumice, and lashings of nourishing cocoa butter – smells amazing and is the perfect treat for your skin. This deeply exfoliating bar will leave skin feeling smooth and refreshed!

Date night skin is hydrated skin, so lock in moisture right out of the shower with a gorgeous lotion and body wash that contains a mixture of luxurious oils for silky-smooth skin that will last all night.

Try: The Mane Choice Ancient Egyptian Body Wash & Oil + Lotion Fusion 

($14.99 each at TheManeChoice.com)

Infused with Beta-Carotene, Vitamin B5 and Vitamin E work to protect, moisturize and soothe while Kalahari Oil, Oleaster Oil, Mongongo Oil and Baobab Oil rejuvenates skin by bringing out its natural glow.
