Whether it’s your 3rd date or your 300th, the stakes are just a little higher for a special Valentine’s Day date. Go all out kitchy in heart print socks if you’re cozying up at home with Netflix or make their jaws drop in a plunging lace dress for a romantic dinner pour deux. Take a trip to the rink in rosy polka dots or ogle art together in a flirty dress, sneakers and quirky clutch. No matter how you choose to celebrate, we’ve got you covered. And if all else fails, just remember, roses are red, violets are blue, if you think you’re looking smokin, the whole world will too.
Hold hands in a full printed skater skirt and thick knit cardigan for a wintery date outdoors. All that’s missing is the marshmallow-topped hot chocolate.
Trying to stay warm during an outdoor date in the middle of winter? An ultra-hydrating lip treatment is key. Pick one with a tint of colour (this cult fave comes in 11 shades to choose from, and the darker berry ones are quite pigmented!) and leave the rest of your face bare.
For a seriously steamy date, head to the Banff Hot Springs and crank up the heat in the warm pools. Slip into a fluffy red robe to watch the snowflakes fall.
Whether you’re a Ruby Woo or a Russian Red gal, Valentine’s Day is the perfect time to let your signature red lip shine. A matte finish is great for staying put when things get hot and steamy (in the hot springs, of course).
A striking all-white outfit calls for drama in the beauty department as well, and nothing says drama like flawless lashes. Start your routine off right with a mascara primer to lift, separate and volumize lashes even before mascara application. Unlike traditional white primers, this latest release from Estee Lauder comes in black, for fool-proof application.

Gallery Date
For a cultural affair, a painterly print is the way to go. Keep things casual with cool kicks and a cheeky bag.
A bold, printed dress paired with bright gallery lighting can only mean one thing: perfect skin is a must. Make sure your base is flawless with a full coverage yet lightweight foundation, like Nars’ All Day Luminous Weightless Foundation. Just one pump is enough to cover blemishes and give skin a sheer, effortless glow.
