Whether you're spending your Valentine's Day with a special someone, your gal pals, or just yourself, step out in style with a makeup look that embraces the holiday spirit. From classic red lips to more demure baby pink combinations and everything in between, here are 14 Valentine's Day beauty looks you need to try out this year.

Graphic Liner Hearts

 

Hearts on Valentine's Day don't have to be just the shape of your chocolates. This look uses pink eyeliner to create abstract eyes, replacing your typical eyeshadow. The monochromatic look makes the eyes pop, while still feeling a bit more casual. Perfect for if you want to do something a little different this year. 

The Classics Revived

 

The classic Valentine's Day colors, this combination of electric pink and deep red is the perfect way to elevate your Valentine's Day look. The red mascara adds a nice pop to the look, blending perfectly with the liner to create a flawless transition from lid to lash. 

Pop of Pink

 

Need something to spice up your eye look? Add a pop of pink. The use of a shimmering pink shade in this look brings focus to the eyes and blends well with the matte shades. The lip complements the eye without being too vibrant, a nice touch above natural. This look is elegant and simple, perfect for V-Day. 

Wine and Dine

 

Wine shades are a great color to build your look around this Valentine's Day. The purply-red can be daunting, but add a pop of shimmer and blend for a simple, yet stunning look.

Red Lip

 

The red lip is a Valentine's Day staple. Ideal for drawing attention to your lips, the red lip should be the star of the show. In this look, the lip is paired with a simple eye and light blush, creating a chic and sexy look for V-Day. 

Mix and Match

 

A blush pink lid and a magenta lip are the perfect contrasting combination. The subtle eyes complement your luscious lips rather than distracting from them. No blush is needed for this look, just a more orange-red undertoned bronzer and a sleek highlighter.

Shimmer and Shine

 

Who said only the lid gets to be shimmering? Adding some glitter to your undereye is not only a great way to add an extra pop of glitz, but it also helps to create a more cohesive visage. This look masters the glittery eye, using three different shades to create a metallic pink masterpiece. The matching of the eyes and lips helps bring everything together, especially with some understated highlighter and blush. 

Focus on Framing

 

The baby pink to salmon pink inner/undereye look frames the face instead of shadowing the eyes. The use of bright colors in the inner corner and lower lashline creates something unique. The additional nude shimmer brings the look together without having to apply additional color. Keep the rest of your face simple with light blush, a nude lip, and a simple brow.

Cut Crease

 

With the pink ombre cut crease being the centerpiece of this look, the matching lip creates structure and unity. With the eye being so out there, the simple gloss and lip liner lip is the only way to go. The hint of pink blush and slight shine help bring the whole thing together.

Red All Over

 

The color of love, red is a staple for Valentine's Day. This look's effortless blending of different shades of red to create an eye-catching look is what we should be striving for this Valentine's Day. Using the lips as your centerpiece, choose a lighter red for your eyes and blush to blend the two together seamlessly and draw more attention to the lip. 

Glossy Lips

 

Nothing makes a lip pop like gloss. Choose your favorite colored gloss and pair it with your go-to eyeliner for a natural look with a hint of shine. 

Red-Orange

 

Red-orange is such an overlooked color for Valentine's Day, perfect for if deep red isn't your thing. In this monochromatic dream, the eyes are the center of the look. Packed with red-orange shadow, dust a faint shimmer over top to incorporate a little more definition to the eyes.

Basic Lid, Bright Lip

 

Chic and simple, this nude lid paired with a bright lip is a timeless, elegant look to wear on Valentine's Day and beyond.

Baby Pink Everything

 

Glittery lids are certainly something to try this Valentine's Day. This beautiful pink look, topped with a light shimmer, is the perfect look to try out a glittery lid without stepping too far out of your comfort zone. The subtle magenta eyeliner adds contrast against the baby pink. Pair with a nude lip and your makeup is complete.
