Veet^®’s list of glam things to do for Valentine's Day

1. Make self-care romantic

Hair removal doesn’t always have to be, well, painful. Incorporate these tasks into your beauty routine to enjoy a major self-care moment.

For example, you’ve probably heard of the viral everything shower trend – a relaxing (and lengthy!) routine that involves everything from cleansing to hair removal to moisturizing and everything in between.

Try a product like Veet^® PURE Cream - In-Shower Normal Skin^* to seamlessly tick off “body and leg-hair removal” from your list of beauty things to do for Valentine's Day. Call it our little hair removal hack ;).

Romance the skin you’re in

As lovely as Valentine’s Day can be, the season it falls in—winter—can be less than lovely for our skin. Factors like cold winter air and dry indoor heat can leave your skin drier and flakier than usual.

And if you’re wondering how to get a valentine, alligator skin is not the one. That’s why giving your skin some TLC this Valentine’s Day is extra important. Be sure to moisturize, exfoliate, and protect your skin from the harsh winter elements to keep your skin healthy and glowing for Valentine’s Day.

Face it – you’re gorgeous!

If you’ve ticked these first few items off your list of things to do for Valentine’s Day, it’s time to get your skin looking and feeling smooth from tip to toe. (But as always, body hair is a deeply personal choice. So set your own standard!).

Prepare for potential close-up pillow talk by removing unwanted hair or peach fuzz on your face. Pick up a product like Veet^® Professional^™ Wax Strips, For Face, Sensitive Skin, With Almond Oil^* for a quick and easy hair removal experience and up to 28 days of smoothness.

Don’t forget your amazing underarms

Depending on your Valentine's Day outfit, you may not be showing off your armpits this Valentine’s Day. But similar to how wearing sexy lingerie under your outfit can boost your confidence, just knowing your skin is smooth and glowing can make you feel even more amazing.

Try a product like Veet^® PURE Sugar Wax Kit—Argan Oil^* for long-lasting results^† and high-quality hair removal at home. Then get ready to reach for that wine glass or light those candles confidently!

Love your bikini line

Let’s move on to the bikini line. Whatever your plans are, it never hurts to have a smooth canvas “down there.” A wax product like Veet^® Professional^™ Wax Strips, Face, Bikini & Underarm, For Sensitive Skin, with Almond Oil^* makes it easy to achieve fresh smoothness and superior results.

Tips to prevent unsightly razor bumps include:

• Use a warm compress before waxing to open the pores
• Use a cold compress after waxing to soothe irritated skin
• Exfoliate often (but not immediately after hair removal methods)
• Moisturize your skin

Then, all that’s left to do is to slip into your favourite lingerie!

Give some love to your legs & body

You’ve made it to the last stop on our list of things to do for Valentine's Day. You’re doing awesome! It’s time to tackle your legs and any other body areas you wish to be smooth for V-Day.

Try Veet^® wax products^* made with aloe vera, which is known for its nourishing properties for dry skin (we need all the help we can get). Again, whether your legs are on display or tucked away in cozy leggings, just knowing your skin is smooth and glowing will give you an extra boost of confidence – and who doesn't want that?!

More tips for glowy skin

Glowing skin is great, but it isn’t always easy to achieve, especially in the dry winter months. Here are some simple ways to boost your skin’s natural glow:

• Stay true to your skincare routine (keep it simple with a cleanser and moisturizer)
• Don’t skip SPF
• Exfoliate regularly
• Get a good night’s sleep

Add these tips to your glam list of things to do for Valentine’s Day and you’ll be unstoppable!
