You need to be in love to have good skin, I do not take too much time over my beauty regime but drink lots and lots of water and am careful about what I eat. I exercise regularly.

With Valentine's Day around the corner, it's time to get that skin glowing. Think precious metals - gold, silver and bronze - the colours that give you instant radiance. The trick with these metallic hues is to use them as highlighters. It's all about enhancing. Shimmer and shine will give you that understated but grown-up look, just right for a dinner date. Make-up artist, Hamid Shaikh, dips his brushes in metallic shades to give Priya Sachdev, model and fiancée of hotelier, Vikram Chatwal, a glow that sparkles as much as the rock on her finger!

Silver Belle

This look has a very feminine feel, as Hamid mixed silver with soft pinks. "These two shades really complement each other and give a girl a very soft look." The eyes were kept natural. Just a coat of mascara was applied, to add some interest. Hamid patted a little Mac Silver glitter on the outer corner of eye. Make-up Forever's Silver dust was lightly applied all over the face. A soft pink blush was then added to the apple of the cheeks. Finally, Make-up Forever's Pink Orchid lipstick was brushed on to the lips.

This girlie look is great for a daytime date, or for a romantic evening in.
