The 5 Sexiest Beauty Products
By Sophia Panych, Allure magazine
Valentine's Day is so close we can almost taste the chocolate and smell the roses. To get ready for the most romantic day of the year, we've rounded up the beauty products sure to get hearts racing.
1. Lorac Perfectly Lit Oil-Free Luminizing Powder. This pearlescent powder, strategically pressed on the tops of the cheekbones and down the bridge of the nose, makes your face look bathed in candlelight.
2. Giorgio Armani Eyes to Kill Mascara. Nothing is more seductive than long, voluminous, feathery lashes, and this mascara really delivers. It gives "Kim Kardashian-quality thickness," says contributing editor Alyssa Kolsky Hertzig.

3. Clinique Long Last Glosswear in Juicy Apple. Lips are at their most kissable when they look wet and juicy. "I layer this red gloss on top of red lipstick to get my lips looking luscious," says deputy editor/beauty director Amy Keller Laird. (Not a lipstick fan? On its own, this gloss imparts a pretty, sheer red that's not at all sticky.) Pair your shiny red lips with red nails to channel the uber-sexy look at Gucci's spring show.
4. Editions de Parfums Frédéric Malle Carnal Flower. This scent is aptly named: It has a naughty (even slightly dirty-in a good way) quality underlying its white flowers. We pretty much guarantee that anyone who catches a whiff will want to come back for more.

5. Nars Monoi Body Glow II. Beauty news editor Heather Muir saves this tiare flower-infused oil for special occassions. "I smooth a few drops over my body after getting out of the shower, and it gives my skin a sexy sheen that smells irresistible."
