Whether you’ve been struck by Cupid’s arrow or have a special place in mind for Cupid to stick his bow + arrow, here are some Miss Bliss tips for having a blissful Valentine’s Day.
10. Skip the $4.99 box of chocolates that taste like wax. Book yourself a double choc pedicure at the spa and sip a cup of hot cocoa.
9. Slip into a nice hot bubble bath and grab a glass of wine.
8. Call up your girlfriends, grab some trashy magazines and start a pool of who will be broken up by the end of 2009. My vote: J-Lo + Marc call it quits by the first day of spring.
7. Get as smooth as that annoying baby Cupid’s bum + wax wherever you want to defuzz.
6. Skip the day all together. It’s on a Saturday this year. Barney’s is probably having a sale anyway.
5. Make a customized photo book so you’ll always remember the fun times you had. These make a beautiful gift-hubby made me one for Christmas. Very romantical.
4. Treat yourself (or someone else) to some serious relaxation with a massage.
3. Skip the overpriced Valentine’s day menu-the service stinks on Valentine’s Day anyway. Check out yelp.com for recommendations for delivery.
2. For dessert, light some candles, dim the lights and indulge in some chocolate covered strawberries for dessert. Edible Arrangements™ has scrumptious, juicy strawberries that are sure to be a hit.
1. If you don’t have a man, go get yourself an I don’t need a man-icure at the spa with your best girlfriends and be glad you didn’t have to spend an hour at Hallmark looking for a cheesy $4 greeting card.
Bliss Kisses!

About karenglidden
My name is Karen Glidden and I’m the web content coordinator for Bliss. I will be the primary author of Bliss n Tell. For all your beautification needs, please refer to blissworld.com
My background is not beauty related at all. I graduated from Boston University and worked at Starbucks for many years climbing their corporate ladder. Pre-Bliss, my idea of a milky cleanser was the residue left on my face after making cappuccinos all day. I’ve been with Bliss since October 2007 and have been converted into a product worshipper.
I’m the MacGyver of skincare. I love inventing new uses to beauty products. You’ll find me putting toner on my legs to help with dry skin, wearing my glamour gloves on the subway to smooth my hands, and using skincare in my hair to tame flyaways. Oh, did I mention that I’m totally frugal. Yes, this little Bliss girl is a ‘recessionista’ for sure (hey, I still have student loans to pay off!)
My skin type is normal. I’m not particularly breakout prone unless it’s stress related or hormonal. I’m not too oily, but sometimes dry all over depending on the weather. I’ve got an even skin tone and not too many fine lines, wrinkles, or hyperpigmentation. I have some sun damage from years of sun-worshipping sans SPF, my greatest skincare regret in life.
My biggest skin concern are fine lines/wrinkles around my eyes and laugh lines around my mouth. Oh, and some uh….cellulite on my bum/thighs. Yes, I am human (you can stop pointing and laughing now, thanks!).
My Favorite Bliss Product: I can’t choose just one. It’s a tie between Triple Oxygen Instant Energizing Mask and A Tan For All Seasons
Triple Oxygen Instant Energizing Mask is my five minute beauty fix for just about everything (breakouts, dull/tired skin, dryness). A Tan For All Seasons is my best friend. It’s a stink-free tan in a can. I cannot live without a sun-kissed glow all year (without the UV damage, of course!)
Thanks for the advice! I fear I’m becoming predictable at valentines so this will be a nice change!
