You should exfoliate your skin at least once a week with a facial peel that contains salicylic, glycolic or alpha hydroxy acids. Or you can easily make a face mask at home with a few basic, natural ingredients. Thus, your skin will look more radiant and healthier after just a few applications.
2. Moisturize

It is essential to moisturize every day to keep your skin looking soft and supple. A great way to hydrate your skin is to drink plenty of water. However, you need a quality moisturizing product, as well. There are so many quality moisturizers available these days and you can even opt for a scented lotion like the ones you can find at Bath & Body works or Victoria’s Secret. Make sure to smell awesome for that special someone! And what’s better than a lotion that not only soothes your skin, but smells sweet and sexy, as well?
3. Primer

Even if face primer is not a part of your daily facial routine, it is a must for special occasions such as Valentine’s Day. Primer work to even out and smooth your skin tone prior to applying foundation and/or concealer. It also helps to minimize the appearance of fine lines and pores. You will notice how smoothly your foundation will glide over your skin once you have applied qualitative primer.
4. Foundation

Every woman wants a flawless complexion and foundation is one of the best ways to achieve this look. You should choose a foundation that is only slightly lighter than your natural skin color. And use a large soft brush to apply the bronzer to your face and lightly dust it on. Nobody wants their face to look caked with thick foundation, especially on a romantic occasion such as Valentine’s’ Day!
If you want a sultrier look, you can lightly spritz a moisturizing spray over your face once your makeup is fully applied. You can even carry a mini spray in your purse to reapply during the evening to maintain your super sexy look!
5. Blush

Even if you don’t normally wear blusher, never underestimate the power of rosy cheeks. Cream formulas are most effective if you want a more natural look as they go sheer and are easiest to blend. To find the shade of blush that best suits your natural skin tone, pinch your cheeks ever so gently and match the blush to that color.
