The make-up combo to try on Valentine's Day For a romantic spirit, but above all never banal

Playing with makeup never really needs an excuse, but this year Valentine’s Day becomes one of the best moments to dare a little more with color. On this occasion, romance is expressed through unexpected colour combinations, designed to break away from the usual routine and experiment more freely. From pink and burgundy to lilac and orange, the common thread is always the same: a romantic vibe that is, above all, never boring.

Makeup combos to try on Valentine’s Day

Pink and burgundy

A now well-established classic: a total pink look that starts with the lips, moves through blush, and lands on ultra-soft eyeshadows. Then burgundy eyeliner and mascara gently break the bon-ton innocence, adding intensity to the eyes without going all the way to black, which would make the look feel too strong.

White, black and baby pink

Clean, milky, almost dreamy. Baby pink on lips and cheeks instantly gives a romantic feel, while a white eyeshadow brightens the eyes, making them look open and light. On its own it might feel a little too sugary, so to balance out the overly girly mood, add a black eyeliner: thin and elongated, just enough to add character and define the gaze.

Lilac and brown

Lilac eyeshadow takes centre stage on the eyes, enhanced by a touch of mascara, paired with cool-toned rosy blush on the cheeks and warm chocolate lips to create the perfect contrast. The result is a balanced mix of sweetness and intensity.

Indigo and orange

For those craving a fresh and playful look, this is the perfect colour combo: cool indigo on the lids, paired with a bold orange eyeliner that instantly adds character, while the rest stays understated, light blush in warm tones, ghost lashes, and nude lips.

Blue and neon green

For anyone who’s truly not afraid to go bold: neon green on the eyes, paired with blue mascara and eyeliner for a pop gaze that nods to ’80s fashion. It’s the perfect combo if the idea of a predictable romantic makeup look bores you and you’re looking for something bolder.
