Valentine’s Day is the perfect occasion to experiment with bold and beautiful makeup looks, and this year, we’re drawing inspiration from some of the most stylish stars. Whether you’re embracing a statement lip or an ethereal eye, these beauty looks will elevate your Valentine’s Day glam and leave you feeling fabulous.

Elsa Hosk’s Bold Red Lip

An eye-catching yet effortless Valentine’s Day makeup look is the classic red lip, painted in the most fiery scarlet shade. Unsure whether to go for a warm, cool, or neutral red? A quick tip shared by Yves Saint Laurent’s makeup artist Jenifer Pascha is to look at the veins on your wrist under natural light. This will help you find your perfect tone: blue or purple undertones indicate cooler reds, while green undertones signal warmer shades.

This year, we’re channeling Swedish supermodel Elsa Hosk’s understated yet striking approach, pairing a bold lip with more subdued eyes to let the pop of color take center stage. Opt for matte or slightly shimmery nude shades for your eyeshadow and finish with a touch of mascara. For the perfect pout, prep your lips by cleansing, exfoliating, and moisturizing first. Follow up with a lip primer, outline with a matching lipliner, and fill in with your lipstick. For precision, use a small concealer brush to smooth the edges, then blot and reapply for a long-lasting effect. Ready for those potential Valentine’s Day kisses!

Linda Hallberg’s Dreamy Pink Iridescence

Valentine’s Day is all about shades of pink and red, and Swedish makeup artist Linda Hallberg’s iridescent pink look is the perfect way to embrace these romantic tones. Hallberg’s shimmering pastel pink eyeshadow, paired with berry-toned lips, is both dreamy and striking.

To recreate this look, keep your base light with a touch of highlighter on your cheekbones to emphasize your luminous glow. Apply a sparkly pastel eyeshadow with a blending brush for a soft, diffused effect, or use your finger for more intense pigment. Add a pop of eyeshadow to the inner corners and along the lower lashline for extra impact. For the lips, go for a rich pink and darken the edges with lipliner for an ombré effect.

Ash K. Holm’s Feisty Feline Flick

A classic cat-eye never goes out of style, and this sultry winged liner is perfect for a Valentine’s Day date night. Celebrity makeup artist Ash K. Holm, known for her sharp eyeliner, shows us how to nail this look with precision.

Start by priming your eyelids and drawing a sharp wing with black liquid or gel eyeliner. Use an angled brush for precision and follow the natural curve of your lower lashline to create the wing. Use face tape for a crisp finish and clean up any mistakes with a small brush and makeup remover. Pair your winged eyeliner with voluminous lashes and warm brown eyeshadow, and finish the look with a muted nude lip.

Zara Larsson’s 1990s Frosted Lids

Inspired by the Y2K trend, Zara Larsson brings the frosted eyeshadow look back with a modern twist. To recreate her icy look, apply a shimmering white or pearl eyeshadow to your eyelids, blending outward for a soft, ethereal glow. Tightline your lower lashline with white eyeliner for an extra pop. Finish with a delicate touch of black mascara and a subtle winged eyeliner, or skip the liner altogether and extend the eyeshadow for a full frosty effect.

No matter how you choose to glam up for Valentine’s Day, these looks are sure to make you feel amazing and confident. Whether it’s a bold red lip or a soft neutral glow, these beauty inspirations will leave you looking stunning all day and night.
