Valentine’s Prep: How To Get Glowing Date Night Skin

Valentine's Day Glowing Skin

Calling all love birds! Whether you’re planning a romantic date for Valentine’s Day with your loved one or celebrating Galentine’s Day with your closest friends, glowing skin cannot be missing. Especially during the colder months of the year, it can be tricky to keep that healthy glow and our skin can appear more dull. But not to worry, we have the perfect tips for you to get glowing date night skin for February 14th!

Date Ideas for Valentine’s Day

With some countries still being in (partial) lockdown, going on dates isn’t as easy as it used to be. This means you may have to use your creativity to still make the most of the day. If you’re stuck on date ideas for Valentine’s Day, we have a couple of fun options to surprise your date next week. Book a hotel room for the evening, buy a bottle of champagne or a box of chocolates and surprise your loved one with a romantic night away. If that isn’t possible at the moment where you live, planning a romantic evening at home can be equally as lovely. Set up the table with candles, rose petals and order some takeout to enjoy together.

Best skincare for glowing skin

During a romantic evening, whether it’s spent at home or at a fancy restaurant, we want to look our utmost best. Prepping our skin before Valentine’s Day is the way to success here, as a glowing complexion makes your entire appearance look brighter and more put together. By adding new skincare products to your daily routine in the weeks before February 14th, your skin will be glowing once it’s V Day. If you’re unsure what skincare products are best for glowing skin, we’ll happily run you through them.

One of our absolute favourite skincare products is the Obagi Professional-C® Microdermabrasion Polish + Mask. That’s a long name, but in short, the mask helps to brighten your skin as well as reducing the signs of ageing. By applying this mask once every week, your skin will gradually become more glowy and give you a healthy appearance. As the polish + mask contains 30% L-ascorbic Acid, also known as Vitamin C, it has proven to be efficient in minimising fine lines and wrinkles. This means you’ll be able to reveal smoother, brighter AND youthful-looking skin by using this product regularly.

Vitamin C serums for a brighter appearance

If we have to name one type of skincare product that has proven to work miracles for dull skin, it would be Vitamin C serums. If you haven’t incorporated a Vitamin C serum into your winter skincare routine yet, we’re telling you now that you will not regret it. Our Obagi Professional-C® Serum 10% is perfect for those with sensitive skin who still want to enjoy the benefits of skin brighteners. With 10% L-ascorbic Acid, this serum is gentle enough for sensitive skin but improves dull-looking, ageing skin.

Another favourite is the Obagi-C® Fx C-Clarifying Serum which contains 10% Vitamin C as well as 4% Arbutin, the key ingredient when it comes to brightening dull skin. Using this serum will leave your skin with a healthy, radiant glow. In other words, it’s the perfect serum to start using in those weeks before Valentine’s Day to prep for the big day. We’re sure you’ll look your absolute best after using this product!

Don’t forget to exfoliate!

Now that we have incorporated Vitamin C products into our daily regime, we cannot forget about adding an exfoliator. Obagi Exfoliators such as the Obagi Nu-Derm® Fx Exfoderm or Obagi-C® Fx C-Exfoliating Day Lotion are great to use every day to exfoliate your skin and remove any dead cells. By exfoliating your skin on a regular basis, you will achieve brighter looking skin. Always remember to start using active or exfoliating products slowly, and let your skin adapt to new products, by building your skin’s tolerance to them. Don’t forget to apply a sunscreen or moisturiser with SPF after exfoliating, as it makes your skin more sensitive to UV rays!
