How to Deal with Being Single on Valentines Day

If you don't want to find yourself on the couch crying over "The Notebook" or "He's Just Not that Into You" and wondering why you don't have a Ryan Gosling in your life then follow some of the tips I've created for this Valentines and watch the video below.

1. Get some of your friends together and go eat dinner or watch a movie (or both).

2. Stay home, paint your nails, buy some chocolate for yourself and watch a marathon of How I Met your Mother and remember that someday you'll find your own Ted Moseby.

3. Go bowling. Why? 'Cause it's fun, that's why.

4. Don't wallow in your pity because Valentines day is lame and is not worth being sad over.

Valentines Day Look

I figured since it's almost Valentines day again (how did that happen?) that I would do a couple of super easy makeup looks that you could use for Valentines.

Since I've seen everyone and their mother do pink or red eye looks, and since I don't typically like wearing pink or red on my eyes, I figured I would do a more neutral look... with gold and browns. I might do a look where I incorporate pink or red into the look, so that it doesn't look like I'm an eleven year old playing with my older sisters makeup. We'll see, but in the mean time, here's today's look:





Face -
- Murad's Clean Scene Down for Defense Moisturizer
- Maybelline's Dream Nude Airfoam in 150 Classic Ivory (Do not buy this... it's awful. It's a total gimmick)
- Hard Candy Glamoflauge Concealer in Light
- Maybelline's Super Stay 24 Concealer in Ivory (under-eyes)
- Tarte's Provocateur Pressed Mineral Powder in Light 04
- Benefit's Hoola Bronzer
- Milani's Baked Blush in Rose D'Oro

Eyes -
- Urban Decay's Primer Potion in Original
- NYX Jumbo Eyeshadow pencil in French Fries (outer corner blended up into the crease)
- Urban Decay's Naked Palette: Virgin (brow & inner corner), Half Baked (lid), Hustle (outer crease and along lower lash line)
- MAC's Espresso (outer corner up into the crease)
- NYC's Liquid Eyeliner in Black (Cat-eye)
- NYX Eyeliner pencil in White (water-line)
- Tarte's Gifted Smart Mascara in Black

Lips -
- NYX Round lipstick in Narcissus
- MAC's Lipglass in Viva Glam Gaga (original)
