Blog by Candis & Daphne: Valentine's Day Makeup for All

Love is in the air. Well, love for lipsticks, cheek tints, eyeshadow palettes, glitter liner is, anyway. We spent this Valentine's Day with our true love, makeup! Whether you're going on a date or just feel like getting all dolled up, here's what we were up to. So we tried creating a pink/peachy look for Valentine's using one of our favorite brands, Althea Korea since they were kind enough to send us some new makeup products from their own line!

What's perfect for a date night and a night out with your gal pals than a pink/peachy look? And these products came just right in time! Here they are!

1. Skin Relief Spot Film Gel

Before we go into makeup, we always have to have a good base. Skin first. Another spot? Don't you worry! With Althea's Skin Relief Spot Film Gel, thinly apply onto the skin before drying down to a smooth canvas to protect the area and allow for makeup to be applied on without a trace. It contains tea tree oil to quickly and effectively treat acne, while a mix of Centella and pine leaf extracts calm redness, treating acne while you're out and about.

2. Flawless Creamy Concealer

Say bye bye to dark spots and eyebags with Althea's Flawless Creamy Concealer. It really does the job of covering up imperfections. It's also blendable and buildable so you're never gonna worry of caking up. What's really interesting is that it is moisturizing. And of course, a concealer that stays all day is a plus!

3. Watercolor Cream Tint

Get deliciously juicy lips with Althea's Watercolor Cream Tints! These pretty tubes give you the best of all worlds with the pigmentation of a lipstick, the long-wearing power of a stain, and the moisturizing formula of a gloss. What more can we ask for? It also prevents chapped lips from flaking, which we really need! This is the perfect lip product for stashing in your purse for easy touch-ups and comfortable wear.

4. Spotlight Eye Glitter

This one by far is something really new to our use! This sparkly number doubles up as both an eyeshadow and a liner to light up the eyes. Whether you like a subtle glow or a full-on glitter look, these have a hydrating formula that glides on like butter over the lids, allowing for an easy blend. Though you have to put it on fast since it dries up quickly which makes it budge-proof after.

5. Eye Palette Sunrise & Moonrise BCL X ALTHEA

And our fave thing? Palettes!!! Add some celestial magic into your beauty routine with Althea's very first eye shadow palette: Sunrise & Moonrise! Made in collaboration with Bunga Citra Lestari, these 8 shades will take you from gorgeous daytime to sultry night time, giving you the effortlessly glamorous feminine style Bunga is known for.
