Kiss and makeup.

Valentine’s Day is nearly here, and with the holiday comes the pressure to buy gifts that show how much you really care for the object of your affections. Red roses, teddy bears, and heart-shaped boxes of candy are classics, but dare we say, a little stale. For the beauty lover in your life, why not opt instead for a chic rose-scented perfume or a lipstick that tastes like dessert? Or better yet, just treat yourself!
