The Self-Love Gifts We’re Buying Ourselves This Valentine’s Day

We’re flipping Valentine’s Day on its head this year. How exactly? We’re ditching the long stem roses and dinner plans in place of 24 hours of indulging ourselves in all the luxuries we so deserve. Whether that’s face masks and fries or lighting up a candle that’s far too expensive, here are seven beauty and wellness products we’ll be spending Feb 14th with this year.

Oh, and don’t worry. On the off chance you have nabbed yourself some plans, we’ve included a little something that’s guaranteed to spice up your makeup look.

Every product we’re treating ourselves to this Valentine’s Day…

Chanel Rouge Allure Velvet Lipstick

In the words of Coco Chanel, “If you’re sad or heartbroken, make yourself up, dress up, add more lipstick and attack.” Say no more. And what better lipstick to do it with than a sultry dusty red like Rouge Allure Velvet in the shade Rouge Vie.

$45 at Chanel

Diptyque Candle Roses

If you can’t splurge on yourself on Valentine’s Day, then when can you? You don’t need us to tell you that you deserve to be surrounded by the romantic scent of a delicate rose bush at all times. Though it’s certainly not cheap, this 600g candle has a 90-hour burn time, plus the pink ceramic vessel has an unlimited shelf life as a feature on your bookcase.

Dr Naomi Energy BDE – Anti Ageing Light Therapy Device

Why should our faces have all the fun? If you’ve been using an LED mask and reaping the skin rejuvenating benefits, it’s time to even out the playing field and treat your decolletage, neck and shoulders to a session. Dr Naomi’s device has been built to address premature skin ageing as it promotes the production of collagen to deliver smoother, plumper and brighter-looking skin in as little as 10 minutes. Now that’s the only BDE we require this V-Day.
