Michael Douglas said, тАЬbeing single is pretty good. It has a nice sense of irresponsibility.тАЭ Probably the worst day to be single is on ValentineтАЩs Day, but it doesnтАЩt have to be like that. This year, if youтАЩre not planning a date night on February 14, plan a self-care date for you and your BFF.
Call it GalentineтАЩs Day, in the spirit of Parks & RecreationтАЩs Leslie Knope. If youтАЩre not excluding men from your day, call it тАЬPalentineтАЩs Day.тАЭ Here are some ideas that go beyond dinner, roses and chocolates to make your day special, even without a significant other.
- Treat your BFF
Roses, gold and chocolates? Whether it’s Valentine’s Day or another reason to say “”I care,”” there’s nothing too good for your BFF. Treat your girlfriend (and yourself!) to a bottle of self-care and a little piece of luxury with rose, gold and chocolate infused bath, body and skin products. We have a great selection of bath and beauty ValentineтАЩs day gifts, including:
- Peter Thomas Roth Rose Stem Cell Bio Repair Mask to prevent and counteract the signs of aging. This product smells delightful and is designed for all skin types.
- Peter Thomas Roth 24K Gold Pure Luxury Cleansing Butter that nourishes your skin in the shower or bath. Who knew that gold could help your skin have a natural glow. This product is good for all skin types.
- Davines Alchemic Conditioner Chocolate works on your hair as a deep conditioner for dry hair. ItтАЩs eco-friendly, one of the best hair products on the market and made in Italy. Use with its corresponding shampoo for maximum effectiveness.

Splurge on an expensive restaurant with a group of singles
One of the best ways to spend any day is to be with friends. Make reservations at a restaurant that isnтАЩt thought of as a date place. Dress up. Don’t forget a great fragrance like Joe Malone Nectarine Blossom Honey. Enjoy a night out with like-minded people who agree that ValentineтАЩs Day is just another day.┬а
