Ways to Spice up Valentines Day with Glitter
Valentine's Day is just around the corner, providing another fun chance to make life sparkle! Whether it's a date with a special someone, a girls’ night out, or a party to attend, here are some great ideas to make you shine on Valentine's Day!
Romantic Eyeshadow Ideas
Romantic hairdos and dresses aside, makeup is always an important part of your look, especially when celebrating love! Get some dramatic eyelashes and try any of these glittery eyeshadow styles to glam up:
Lovestruck
Velvety red eyeshadow by @beyoutiful1987. Using deep shades of red and pink as your base eyeshadow topping it off with deep red cosmetic grade glitter like Glitties Crimson.
Berry Dramatic
By @1princessjasmine, this dramatic berry-themed look is perfect for any Valentine's dinner or party if you like bold makeup. Shades of dark plum over the crease and a soft, nude shade on the lid, thinly outline your crease and eyeliner with our Glitties Cheeky Glitter and voila!
Red Wings
Sometimes, a little goes a long way to give your eyes a much-needed pop. If you’re going for a flirtatious glint without looking too extra, try using Glitties Obsession cosmetic grade glitter in place of your usual black winged eyeliner – no eyeshadow needed! This is a basic look sans shadow or lashes, with just some mascara.
Unicorn
This fun eyeshadow look is better suited for partying with the girls- hues of pink, purple and blue, dramatic lashes, and pink glitter like Glitties Tempting winged over the crease. A lavender base on the eyelid and ombre above the crease with a darker purple, pink, and blue fading into each other.
Stone Hearted
Here’s another dramatic look for those who love everything pink. Fuchsia eyeshadow over your crease cut the crease with concealer, then use bright pink shadow over your eyelid. Apply Glitties Pink Rouge over the lid, then add some sharp, winged black eyeliner.
The beauty of this eyeshadow look is in the bling. Line up small rhinestones at the periphery of your eyeliner, and use long lashes to add to the drama. There you have it – a stunning look for Valentine's Day!
Smokin' Hot
Here’s the perfect Valentine's smoky-eye-look in shades of berry and tan by @bewitchiingflare. Top your eyelid with bright holographic pink cosmetic-grade glitter like Glitties Fuchsia Jewel, and complete the look with black winged liner and mascara.
Highlight with Body Glitter
Fine cosmetic grade glitter powder like Glitties Baby Pink can be a great way to highlight your cheekbones and collarbones. If you really want to pull out all the stops, apply glitter over whatever skin you’re showing! Glitzy shoulders and neckline are to die for on the big day!

Flirty Frost
Similar to the previous design, but use white glitter instead of red. Glitties Custom Mix Frost is perfect to top the central nails. Add a touch of the glitter to another nail or two, leaving the rest plain.
It’s the perfect look for semi-formal dinners or parties when you need to give off a chic vibe without standing out too much.
Disco Nails
This simply done, yet showy style requires no multiple steps. Take your favorite shade of glitter like the beautiful Glitties No.1 Custom Mix and apply it all over your nails. Finish off with topcoat, and enjoy looking gorgeous as your fingers twinkle every time they catch the light!
Pretty in Pink
If you’re looking for something girly with a bit of sparkle and not much expertise required, this is a pretty low-maintenance idea by @nails_byklavdie. Paint a few nails in vibrant shades like fuchsia pink, and a center nail with baby pink or soft lavender for contrast. Reserve a single nail for glitter – try Glitties Jazzberry Custom Mix for a good match.
Rosy Bling
Here is a romantic nail art idea by @marcelalemieszek, once again using nude nail polish on most nails and adding designs to only the central ones. Swirly roses with white or red polish on one nail of each hand are a great way to add some tantalizing detail to your nails. Glitties Pink Salmon Jewel Hexagon is perfect for this color scheme.
You Glow Girl!
