It is that time of the year again when any of these three things happen – lovebirds (of the human kind) display their mushier sides, non conformists throw brickbats and then there are those in the middle for whom it is just another day…yes, we are talking about Valentine’s Day.
Naturally, we bring you makeup ideas to celebrate the day – for all those who wait for the day and all those who keep their hate for the day. Those who follow the middle ground and ignore it can of course continue with their usual life.
Candy Floss Makeup Idea for the Lovers
The candy floss makeup is ideal for those who want to look cute and pretty for their better halves or for their own selves. It has a lot of pink involved – because pink is the official color of the day. Therefore, the idea is about going all out in pink.
Candy Floss Makeup Idea for the Lovers -Valentines Day
The makeup style comprises of pink shadow on the upper eyelids, pink blush on the cheeks and a candy pink shade on the lips. Do not forget to dress up your nails in the same spirit too – by doing them up in pink. It will be even better if you apply two shades of pink nail polish– one light and one dark – on your digits.

Goth Inspired Makeup Idea for the Opposers
The Goth inspired makeup is good for those who want to profess hatred in memory of ex-boyfriend/s or the very concept of Valentine’s Day. In fact, it can also be worn by those who are lovers of “dark” makeup – because of its focus on black.
Goth Inspired Makeup Idea for the Opposers
The makeup style comprises of really dark eyes which is done up by using a liberal amount of black kohl, black eyeshadow around the eye rims and copious amounts of mascara. A pale pink blush can be used to contour the cheeks. The lips should sport a beige/nude shade in matt finish – keep the gloss away. The nails should be manicured with black nail paint to complete the look.
These are two diametrically opposite looks to sport for the day – so, which makeup do you see yourself voting for, even if you do not actually choose to apply it?
