10 Beauty DIY Ideas for Valentine's Day

orig

Time for a roundup of just a few of my favorite beauty diy recipes for Valentine's Day! The best part is that these can be used for any time of year. Let's get into the list:

DIY Heart Funfetti Fizzies--The first bath bomb recipe I shared! These are heart-shaped and have  fun confetti surprise inside.

DIY Bubblegum Lip Scrub--Because who wants to pay those Lush prices? Your lips and wallet will thank you!



Beauty DIYs With Valentine's Day Roses--Have you ever wondered what to do with those roses? Instead of throwing them out, give one of these 6 recipes a try.


DIY Chocolate Bath Salts--You won't believe how easy these are to make!


DIY Macaron Bath Bombs--How adorable are these? I mean seriously!


DIY Chocolate Sugar Scrub--Your skin will be soft and smell amazing!


 DIY Cupcake Bath Bombs--These make the cutest gifts and are always a hit!


DIY Solid Perfume--You probably have everything you need to make this! This recipe was published  in a magazine because it's that good!


DIY Cherry Ice Cream Solid Sugar Scrub--Looks like the real thing and is a twist on the regular sugar scrub. Great for travel, too.


DIY Chocolate Body Butter--No description needed!

BONUS: Sweet ideas for your Sweetheart and over 50 CHEAP DATE IDEAS! These have been used in marriage seminars nationwide--my first "big" post I ever did!

Extra Elle:

  • Got my hair done yesterday so of course I had to go out to dinner and to Target to take my new 'do for a spin. I just couldn't go back home and waste a good hair day! I managed to not buy a thing either. I must be sick! #itsjustallergies #denial

    Mad props to you girl. There has never been a time I've left Target empty handed. That place is like crack for me.... (; Thanks for the fun DIY ideas. My best friend is getting married in June and I'm going to use one of these ideas for little bridesmaid gifts (I'm the maid of honor).

    This post makes me wish I liked to take baths! And celebrate Valentine's Day!

    I will be checking out the chocolate body butter. My all time favorite lotion is the chocolate lotion from The Body Shop but it's hard to find, at least by me. A DIY substitute is a good thing!

    Such cute ideas and I particularly love the scrub because my skin always feels super soft afterwards! I also hear ya on having to go out after getting your hair done. I always try to time my hair appointment with parties or other events so I don't waste my new "do"!

    Thanks for all the recipes! I'm not sure which one to start with, lol. I need to not waste my haircut when it happens in a few weeks. Good for you not getting ANYTHING in Target. It's hard to do, but I've done it a few times and felt so accomplished when I walked out.
