Although it may seem your affinity for a bold, red lip may be all your own good taste, your preferred beauty look could very well be written in the stars. Zodiac signs have further reach than what planet is in your sign this month; many people believe they are ingrained in our dispositions and influence our unique distinctions. That being said, this Valentine’s Day, let your horoscope help you pick your shade — your zodiac spirit will flourish on the most romantic day of the year.
So what does this mean when you find yourself reaching for your tried and true products, time after time? That in fact, it may be your love of all things luxe, or your adventurous spirit guiding you, thanks to your zodiac sign.
Valentine’s Day, a celebration of all things starry and amorous, demands a beauty look equally special and all your own. Whether you’re a poised Virgo or a free-spirited Aquarius, there’s a perfect pick for your festivities. So this Valentine’s Day, let your horoscope help you pick your shade — your zodiac spirit will flourish on the most romantic day of the year.

Aries
The most rebellious sign of the bunch, Aries best suits daring, confident looks. An on-trend bold brow paired with naked skin, as seen on Christopher Kane’s Spring 2016 runway exudes a certain tenacity and self-assured cool. To recreate the effect, “draw upwards, with a bit of brow gel and mascara,” says Lucia Pieroni, the makeup artist who created the look.

Taurus
Tauruses revel in luxury, and nothing oozes pure, opulent glamour like prepping for your Valentine’s Day date with 24k gold. Soak up the glowy ingredient with a Gold Bee Venom Facial, like model Bar Rafaeli, or for a more private pampering, slather skin with the at-home decadently lavish 24CT Gold Bee Venom Placenta Crème, both by Rodial.

Gemini
Quirky, witty and clever, Geminis know the eyes say it all. Play up your peepers with a fun, offbeat liner, like the bright, sparkly swipes seen at Dries Van Noten, or try an original lash look à la Louis Vuitton, where Pat McGrath created “deconstructed lashes” that were bold, and, well, eye-catching.

Cancer
True romantics at heart, Cancers emanate dreamy, amorous vibes. Channel that into a whimsical and captivating look with woven hair as seen on Alexander McQueen’s spring runway, where hair God Guido Paulo literally knitted models’ hair to create a romantic look.

Leo
Playful, dramatic and possessing a good sense of humor, Leos can get away with sporting a quintessential Valentine’s Day look with lots of pink. Never shying away from drama, make like pink’s biggest fan Nicki Minaj and swipe on a bold, bright lip.

Virgo
Poised and practical, Virgos are nothing if not detail-oriented. In the beauty world, nothing demands more precision than a sharp, perfect flick of classic black liner. Re-create Dolce & Gabbana’s Spring 2016 look for your Valentine’s Day date with a stay-put formula that is as flawless as it is pragmatic — no need for touch-ups here!
valentine’s day beauty zodiac
Libra
Libras are inarguably the most balanced of the bunch. Also possessing grace and elegance, the perfect red lip was pretty much created for Libra’s Valentine’s Day beauty look. Radiating refinement and carried with aplomb, a velvety red lip, like Jason Wu’s S/S 2016, looks perfectly harmonized on an otherwise delicately made-up face.
valentine’s day beauty zodiac
Scorpio
Deeply mysterious, intense and sensual, Scorpios ooze provocative austerity. A super dark plum lip is as enigmatic as it is seductive, and no one knows that better than the outwardly sexual bad gal Rihanna herself. Steal her look this Valentine’s Day with M.A.C’s brand new Liquid Matte Retro Lip Colour in ‘High Drama’, a black-plum stain with a sumptuous suede finish.
valentine’s day beauty zodiac
Sagittarius
Adventurous and optimistic with a no BS attitude, Sagittariuses never take themselves too seriously, much like model-of-the-moment Kendall Jenner (see: Kendall prank call Kim K on Khloé’s new talkshow, Kocktails with Khloé). More exciting than switching up your part, channel Jenner and slip on clip-on bangs; her audacious beauty look translated to a fun, youthful quality and will do just the same during your V-Day celebrations.
valentine’s day beauty zodiac
Capricorn
Capricorns are the most driven, focused, ambition and level-headed of all the zodiac signs, and choose practicality over theatrics any day of the week. A soft blush in a classic pink, as seen on the Michael Kors S/S 2016 runway, perfectly complements all complexions, looks beautiful for a date, and is discreet enough to please Capricorns.
valentine’s day beauty zodiac
Aquarius
The free-spirited, creative geniuses that are Aquariuses are forward thinking innovators, which means their Valentine’s Day look can push traditional boundaries. Take a cue from the most imaginatively gilded runway looks of the season and go for the gold, like Prada did with a Midas-tinged lip, facial dotted jewels like at Givenchy, or an artistic, subtle under-eye splatter like Derek Lam showed.
valentine’s day beauty zodiac
Pisces
Floating by in an eternal state of ethereal dreaminess, Pisces Valentine’s Day look best suits an equally celestial quality. Alberta Ferreti’s S/S 2016 exemplified this otherworldly glow, which can be easily replicated for your Valentine’s Day look with strategically placed highlighter. Givenchy’s Poudre Lumière Originelle will charm the artistic side of Pisces with its stunning, intricate embossing, while the glowy aura it imparts looks simply heavenly.
