So this look adorned with white roses in a messy low bun with a basic brown smokey eye finished off with a classic tightlined kajal and eyeliner is an epitome of elegance. This look makes for a perfect pick if you’re going on a picnic date with your bae!

If your mood says bombshell when you think about Valentine’s Day, then this firestarter look adorned by Deepika Padukone is the one for you. The main element of this makeup is the crimson lipstick, so make sure you use a good one that stays all through the night *wink*. Don’t forget the blazed highlighter all through the face and shoulders to make your skin look lit from within and naturally glowing.
