KISS IT

You must’ve noticed that it’s Valentine’s day today. Duh. In case you didn’t get champagne in bed or didn’t trip over bags with cards, your lover still has time to make it up to you. Send this link to the one who wants to please you. And otherwise, buy them yourself. You’ll meet that great guy someday, and next year you’ll be lying on a bed covered with rose petals and a bottle of Veuve. Want to bet?

A Chanel lipstick and you’ll instantly be in the centre of attention. This fuchsia pink lipstick has a beautiful matte finish, and so you don’t really need a lot more makeup than a flawless skin and a sweep of mascara.
