Real Girls Answer: What Beauty Product Would You Like to Receive on Valentine’s Day?

With Valentine’s Day edging closer, it’s inevitable for us to start feeling twists in the pits of our stomachs; whether it be from the existential dread that comes with watching happy couples spam your Instagram feeds or the giddy excitement for your upcoming romantic date—I’m not jealous, I swear! For those still scouring around for gifts that they want to give or receive (or hoard for themselves in the name of self-love), then you’re in luck! To help you decide on what to fill carts for your special someone, we’ve asked ladies all over the Metro to tell us the products they’d love to receive and why.

For this Valentine’s, I would love to get my hands on a new facial toning device! I heard good things about tools that make use of micro currents and how they deliver long-term results addressing contouring and dark circles.

Light and easy but still serving glam! St. Valentine kindly bless me with the whole ROM&ND BETTER THAN EYES line. I want to look extra cute on the 14th when I break the hearts of many. CHZ!

I’d like to receive a Shiseido Ultimune Serum this Valentine’s Day because it’s my skincare holy grail! You can really see the difference on your skin texture even with just one use. It’ll give you that romantic, blooming glow even if you’re single this V-day!

Available on Calyxta? Not yet, BUT you can try:

Glossier You Solid Perfume! As I’m not a big fan of citrusy and floral, I am in love with how the scent melts into your skin and really changes depending on the wearer. Not only is it simpler and lasts longer than the fragrance bottle, it also feels warmer and more personal!

A peachy or coral blush would be a great gift and perfect for Valentine’s day. I’ve really been into monochromatic looks lately and I love using blush for both my cheeks and eyes; it’s super quick and easy to achieve such a cute look!

Available on Calyxta? YES! You can try:

Senka Perfect Whip Cleanser! I use this product as my daily cleanser. It cleanses and brightens up my face without leaving a dry and tight feeling—plus, it’s so fun to whip the cream!

I would want to receive a 100% organic and non-toxic scented soy candle by Happy Island! The particular variant ‘Deep Sleep‘ would definitely set the mood for some romantic rest and relaxation with some hints of lemon citrus and sweet lavender scents. Lighting that candle would be my way of pampering myself as it reminds me to prioritize self-love and self-care!

Sharing is caring, but sharing skincare products? That’s a next-level kind of love! That’s why this giant 340ml bottle of beauty water from Son & Park that acts as both a toner and a cleansing water would be the perfect gift to give (and share!!!) with your loved one this Valentine’s day ❤️

Lately, I’ve been stepping up my makeup look with a ton of glitter! I have the Careline Multi Stick in Flush and I’m obsessed with how the golden undertone pairs so well with my skin. Lately I’ve been using it as an eyeshadow and the creamy formula makes it so quick and “goof-proof” that it only takes 2 seconds!
