Quick & Easy Valentine’s Day Beauty Hacks for a Last-Minute Glow-Up

Quick & Easy Valentine’s Day Beauty Hacks for a Last-Minute Glow-Up

Valentine's Day is often framed around romantic love, but we think it's the perfect time to show yourself some love as well!

Whether you need a last-minute Valentine’s Day glow-up to celebrate with a loved one, or heading out for a fun Galentine’s night with the girls, indulging in some well-deserved self-love and pampering is exactly what Cupid ordered!

Honey Girl Organics believes in the power of self-love, and nothing shouts that out more than self-care. So, here's our cheat sheet to get you glowing from head to toe, creating the ultimate at-home pampering session to ensure you feel your best this Valentine’s season.

Step 1 - Nourish Your Hair & Scalp

Let’s start the glow-up process by treating those locks with some love. Add a few pumps of the Serum Hair Treat to your hands, then apply it to the scalp and work it through the length of your hair until you reach the ends. If your ends are parched, add another pump to thoroughly saturate them, ensuring they’re smooth and polished once you’re done! Leave this in for around 30 minutes, this gives you enough time to work on the rest of the glow-up routine, so let’s get started!

Step 2 - Pamper Your Face with the Rejuvenating Mask

Now that your hair is soaking up all the nourishing botanicals, it’s time to prep your face. Apply the Rejuvenating Mask for instant brightening and hydration. Leave it on for 20-25 minutes, which is the perfect time to move on to the next step and relax while pampering your skin.

Step 3 - Soak Those Feet!

While your face is being pampered, let’s take care of your feet. Fill a basin with warm water and add a handful of Epsom salts for a spa-like experience. Relax in the warmth and turn on your favorite rom-com or podcast. This is your moment to soak in self-love, so truly embrace it!

Step 4 - Foot Care and Mask Removal

Once your feet have soaked and the water has cooled, it’s time to gently lift them out of the water and dry them with a towel. Next, use a clean washcloth and warm water to remove the mask from your face.

Step 5 - Hair Care and Shower Time

Now that your hair has soaked up all the replenishing ingredients, it’s time to rinse it out! Hop into the shower and thoroughly wash your hair. If you have fine hair, double shampooing might be a good idea to ensure the serum is entirely removed!

Step 6 - Enrich Your Skin

As your hair begins to dry, take a moment to use HGO’s Body Crème from head to toe, paying extra attention to your feet, knees, elbows, and other dry spots. This will leave your skin feeling nourished and soft.

Step 7 - Facial Care for the Perfect Valentine's Day Glow

Now that you’ve started the exfoliation process with the mask, we suggest you follow up with the Facial Scrub. These two are designed to work together, and after you manually exfoliate your skin with the superfine sugar scrub, your skin will feel baby-soft and ready to continue with your skincare routine.

After the scrub has been rinsed off, follow up with a few splashes of the Facial Toner, then apply a light layer of the HoneyGlo Regenerating Face Serum. Finish your skincare with Matte as your moisturizer—this is particularly great if you’re planning to wear makeup, as it beautifully preps the skin and helps products go on smoothly.

Step 8 - Makeup Prep

We recommend applying the Prime stick if you plan on doing a full makeup routine. It creates a smooth base, reduces the appearance of pores, and helps your makeup go on flawlessly.

3 Tips to Complete Your Valentine’s Day Glow-Up

Spritz on your signature perfume—fragrance can instantly boost your confidence and help you feel glamorous. We love diluted essential oils and organic perfumes to ensure you smell fabulous without harsh chemicals.

Indulge in a few moments of meditation—after finishing your routine, take a few minutes to ground yourself. A calm, relaxed mind can enhance your glow and get you in the right headspace for whatever’s next, whether it’s a date or a girl's night out!

Hydrate with an herbal tea—Chamomile is known for its calming properties, helping to relieve conditions like eczema, rosacea, and overall redness. Green tea is a great pick-me-up, offering a gentle energy boost while keeping you and your skin hydrated from the inside out. Ginger tea is an anti-inflammatory powerhouse, leaving you with that inner glow!

Whether you're single, taken, or spending quality time with your girlfriends, this Valentine's Day glow-up is all about spoiling the most important person in your life, you!

Self-love is NOT selfish.

It’s what we need so that we can pour back into others. So, take this time to nurture yourself and fill yourself up with all the love and care you deserve.

Happy Valentine’s Day!

With love,
Ashley and Honey Girl Organics
