We promised you to provide deets on quirky Galentine’s Gift ideas. So, here we are! Bring colour into the otherwise black-and-white life of your workaholic bestie or make their flamboyant life more colourful with a set of coloured eyeliner. Go for waterproof and smudge-proof high-impact coloured eyeliner shades like golden, shades of teal green, and pink and help her create graphic eyeliner looks with ease.

4. Smokey Gel Eyeliner

So, this Galentine’s Day, wake up, dress up, and say yes to eyeshadow looks with shades or combinations (be it bottle green with pink or purple with shades of beige) you haven’t dared to try before.

7. Semi-permanent Eyebrow Gel

Is your girl pal a big fan of laminated brow look? Gift her a tinted brow gel with a semi-permanent formula and save her from the trouble of creating neat eyebrow looks every day. This type of brow gels help you get full, fluffy brows that lasts for up to 3-days. Isn’t it an amazing Galentine’s Day gifts idea?
