-Glow From Within-

This Valentine’s season, embrace beauty in bold reds, passionate pinks, dreamy pastels and a glass skin finish. Here’s how to create a stunning look inspired by beauty editor Barrie Griffith. From vibrant lips to softly flushed cheeks, let color tell your love story. Whether romantic or daring, these hues bring warmth, confidence, and radiance—because true beauty starts from within.

 1. Soft Pink Blushes

Achieve a sweet, romantic glow with soft pink blushes. 

 Tip: Choose shades like peachy pink or rose and apply them to the apples of your cheeks, blending upwards. For added dimension, layer a powder blush over a cream blush.

 

2. Bold Red Lipsticks

A classic red lipstick symbolizes passion and confidence.

 Tip: Select a blue or orange-toned red based on your skin tone. Exfoliate your lips, line them, and apply the lipstick for a bold finish. 

 

Barrie suggests pairing a classic red lip with soft eye makeup for balance.

 

 3. Glass Skin Finish

Create a soft, youthful complexion that looks fresh and radiant.

Steps: Start with a solid skincare routine, use a hydrating primer, and opt for a lightweight foundation. Finish with a soft-focus powder to set your look.

 

Barrie’s Pro Tip: Use a setting spray to maintain the softness and add a touch of glow.

 

 Conclusion

Soft pink blushes, bold red lips, and a glass skin finish will have you radiating romance this Valentine’s Day. Barrie Griffith has also curated a list of highly recommended products to help you achieve this stunning look. Whether you’re going out or staying in, let your makeup express your love!
