Galentine's Glam: Get the Look with Benefit Cosmetics
Lifestyle Web Release Selection By Editor_wr On Feb 14, 2025 As Valentine's Day approaches, it's the perfect time to celebrate not only romantic love but also the cherished bonds of friendship. This year, why not embrace the spirit of Galentine's Day with a makeup look that exudes glamour, fun, and a touch of romance? Whether you're planning a night out with your besties or a cozy get-together, this Galentine's makeup look will ensure you shine brightly, celebrating the love and laughter shared with your closest friends. And the best part? You can achieve this stunning look using only Benefit Cosmetics products! Step 1: Flawless Base Start with a clean, moisturized face. Apply the The POREfessional Matte Primer to create a smooth, matte base. Conceal any imperfections and brighten your under-eye area with the Benefit Boi-ing Cakeless Concealer. Set your base with the Benefit POREfessional Power Powder to keep your makeup in place all night. Step 2: Rosy Cheeks Embrace the romantic theme with a soft, rosy blush. Opt for the Benefit Dandelion Pink Blush to give your cheeks a natural, flushed look. Apply it to the apples of your cheeks and blend upwards for a youthful, glowing finish. Step 3: Sultry Eyes For the eyes, simplicity can be just as captivating. Define your eyes with the Benefit Roller Liner in black, creating a sleek and precise wing for added drama. Finish with several coats of Benefit BADgal Bounce Mascara to make your lashes look full and fluffy. This combination will give you a bold, defined look that's perfect for a Galentine's celebration. Step 4: Bold Lips A Galentine's makeup look wouldn't be complete without a statement lip. Choose a bold, romantic shade like the Plushtint Lip Stain & Cheek in red velvet or pillow play. This moisturizing matte lip tint will ensure your color stays vibrant throughout the evening, no matter how many laughs and smiles you share. Step 5: Highlight and Glow Add a touch of the Dewlala Liquid Glow highlighter to the high points of your face – the tops of your cheekbones, the bridge of your nose, and your cupid's bow. This will give you a radiant, ethereal glow that's perfect for the occasion. Step 6: Perfect Brows Define your brows with the Mighty Fine Brow Pen (triple tip pen) for a defined, hair-like finish. Set your brows in place with the Benefit 24-HR Brow Setter for a polished look that lasts all day and night. Step 7: Finishing Touches Set your makeup with the Benefit The POREfessional: Super Setter setting spray to keep everything in place. Tips for a Perfect Galentine's Look: Experiment with Colors: Don't be afraid to experiment with different shades and finishes. Galentine's Day is all about having fun and expressing your unique style. Don't be afraid to experiment with different shades and finishes.

Women Around The World Celebrate "Galentine's Day"
Grab your besties, it's time to celebrate Galentine's Day! It's a day for women to celebrate love and friendship with the important gals in their life, and millions are now celebrating across the country. 71 percent of women say most of their close friends are the same gender, according to Pew Reaserch, making Galentine's Day an optimal opportunity to salute sisterhood. The holiday originated as a sort of joke between friends on the sitcom "Parks And Recreation," with the lead character treating the most important women in her life to a fancy brunch. But "breakfast style" may not be the best way to go with egg prices up 53 percent from last year; however, "The Party Goddess" Marley Majcher says there are other ways you can celebrate female friendships. She explains that "there's so many ways to celebrate Galentine's day that it's really limited only by your imagination." Don't know where to start? Lean hard into the theme of red and pink, and of course Majcher says no Galentine's gathering is complete without food. "Even if you're just doing salads or if you're doing brunch at a brunch, then do raspberries and strawberries and kind of have fun with it," she recommends. Adult beverages are also a big part of the day. Majcher says the one thing you cant skip are sips because it's impossible to toast to your platonic relationships without one. "For most of us, that would mean a nice alcoholic beverage to relax, but, it doesn't have to be and no matter what, you always wanna make sure you have, of course, non-alcoholic options." And if there's time, incorporate an activity. "Leaning into trends like red light therapy or like having a mani-pedi, you can also have another activity that's craft based so that everybody's off their phone and also crucial must have a great photo op spot," recommends Majcher. And if you're having a hard time finding a hole in your schedule, literally anything can become a Galentine's Day celebration, even if it's just grabbing coffee after school drop off or scheduling a meal between meetings.
