Pucker Up, Buttercup: The Ultimate Guide to V-Day Glow!
Valentine’s Day is finally here, and whether you’re celebrating with a "forever" someone, your besties, or just treating yourself to some well-deserved main-character energy, today is all about the love.
Forget the clichés; we’re diving into the sweet, the scientific, and the slightly spicy side of February 14th.
💄 The Perfect Pout (On Sale!)
You can’t celebrate Love Day without a signature glow. We have some major news for the lip-gloss-obsessed: VKC is having a 10% off sale on all lip glosses right now! Whether you’re looking for that high-shine glass finish or a subtle shimmer for a Galentine’s brunch, now is the time to stock up. A girl can never have too many tubes in her purse—it’s basically a law.
♏ The Scorpio Secret
Here is a spicy little fun fact for your February: Did you know that a huge percentage of Scorpios were technically "created" this month?
If you do the math—February to November is exactly nine months. While February is full of pink hearts and soft lace, it’s also the month that sets the stage for the most intense, passionate sign of the zodiac to arrive later in the year. If you’re feeling a little extra "magnetic" today, you can thank the Scorpio energy in the air!
✨ Just Girlie Love Facts
Since we’re all about that girl-talk energy, here are a few facts about love that will make you go "aww":
-
Heart-to-Heart Sync: When you and your bestie (or partner) stare into each other's eyes for three minutes, your heart rates can actually synchronize.
-
The Hug Rule: It takes a 20-second hug to release oxytocin—the "cuddle hormone"—which helps you feel safe and lowers anxiety.
-
Love is a Natural High: Biologically, falling in love feels the same to your brain as a dose of euphoria. No wonder we’re obsessed!
💖 V-Day Ideas for You & Your Tribe
Not sure how to spend the day? Here are three ways to lean into the vibes:
-
The "Main Character" Solo Date: Buy yourself those $30 flowers, put on your favorite VKC gloss, and go to a bookstore or a cafe. Romance yourself first!
-
Galentine’s Power Point Night: Get the girls together and present on "Why we would all survive a horror movie" or "Rating our middle school crushes."
-
The Love Letter Exchange: Write "open when" letters to your friends for when they need a boost of confidence or a laugh.
Happy Valentine’s Day! Remember: you are loved, you are glowing, and your lip gloss looks fantastic.
