“While it calls itself a lotion, Biologique Recherche’s P50 may more accurately be described as a “potion”— magical connotations entirely intended. For years, beauty experts and estheticians have raved about the “miracle in a bottle” formula that purifies, exfoliates, hydrates, tones and balances the skin with uncommonly noticeable results. Even Brad Pitt swears by the stuff, and while his love life may not be in peak form at the moment, I’m still betting a dab of P50 each morning will improve mine!

P.S. If my valentine REALLY loves me, he'll also send me to The Peninsula Hotel’s Spa for a Total Body Lift treatment… 90 minutes that will make me 90x more loving. ;)” – Frances Dodds, Senior Editor

“I feel like a complete cliché, but a wine and chocolate pairing is really the key to my heart. But I'm not craving the cheesy heart-shaped box from the drugstore. LA based brands Compartes x Winc paired up to offer a sparkling white and a dark chocolate and vanilla sea salt bar that's the holiest of edible matrimonies.” – Caitlin Heikkila, Director of Social Media & Audience Development

“Scent has a unique ability to set, and many times ruin, a mood. Particularly when it comes to romance—one whiff of the wrong odor can turn an enchanting evening on its head in an instant (fellow pet owners, amirite?). As the father of an all-too-often stinky Sphynx, I’m always looking for intoxicating fragrances that will mask her musk but won't leave my apartment smelling like Brooklyn’s newest Bath & Body Works.

Which is why a box of Astier de Villatte incense, and one of the Parisian ceramics house’s delicate hand molded holders, are the surest way to my heart this Valentine’s Day. With 120 sticks inside, a single box could last an entire year. At the very least, long enough until it’s safe (read: warm) enough to open my windows again. And the holder, while odorless, lasts forever. An investment, if you will, in my relationship with whomever is kind enough to give it—because next year he or she will only be on the hook for more incense.” – Anthony Rotunno, Features Director

“Nothing sounds better for Valentine’s Day than a spa weekend outside of the city. I'd really like to try the Rose Quartz Facial at the Park Hyatt Beaver Creek. Supposedly, rose quartz attracts new love into your life, and as a bonus, the facial's rose-infused moisture formula is the perfect remedy for dry winter skin.” – Rachel Barber, Web Assistant
