How to highlight your eyes for Valentine's Day?

Valentine's Day is not only a great opportunity to eat chocolates and put flowers in your home... No, Valentine's Day is above all a day that celebrates love. And to celebrate love as it should, you must first love yourself! Find, in this article, all the tips from the Beauté Select team to enhance your eyes and feel good this February 14.

The secret boots to adopt several days before Valentine's Day

If there are several days left before the fateful date... Take the opportunity to pamper your eye contour daily. Certain treatments and reflexes must be repeated day after day to offer real results.

Refresh the eye area every morning

Prepare your look by decongesting the under eye every morning. You can do this naturally using cold. Put two metal teaspoons in the fridge before going to bed and pick them up when you get up.

After cleaning your face, stand in front of your mirror and put the backs of your spoons on your dark circles. Wait about 5 minutes and remove them. You can then say goodbye to puffy eyes and tired eyes.

If you have a reusable fabric mask, with a small pocket of gel inside... You can also use that! Place the pocket in the fridge instead of the spoons and use it in the same way by putting on your mask when you wake up, for at least 5 minutes.

Some eye contour treatments can also be stored in the fridge. You can then apply them to your already decongested dark circles to perfect the result.

Use targeted eye care

Whether stored in the cold or not, targeted eye care should be used daily to moisturize the eye contour and beautify the look.

So you can get different eye cosmetics before Valentine's Day, such as:

● An eye contour cream (LX Advanced Cream by V10 Plus)

● An eyelash serum (RevitaLash® Advanced by RevitaLash® Cosmetics)

● An eyebrow serum (RevitaBrow by RevitaLash® Cosmetics).

The ultimate technique to highlight your eyes on D-Day

A hydrated eye area, defined brows and full lashes can all go to the makeup stage! Why not try something new to make up your eyes for Valentine's Day?

Find the perfect place to do your makeup

Before getting down to business, you have to find the perfect spot… Eye makeup done in poor light takes a lot longer and risks being clumsy.

To succeed in your makeup, make sure you have a light source placed well in front of you. Avoid standing near a window unless it faces you. Your two eyes will thus be illuminated in the same way and you will be able to more easily reproduce your identical makeup, on each side.

Define your eyebrow line in minutes

And if you start by making up your eyebrows to intensify your look? Once your complexion is finished, take a pencil or a gel and make up your eyebrows, starting with the base. Intensify the design as you get closer to the outer tip to achieve a natural result.
