Can you be a romantic and also a little wary of Valentine’s Day? One minute, I want a gaudy red box of chocolates and the next I want to burn every piece of pink polyamide elastane in the mall. Gift giving—to a partner, to a friend, to yourself—doesn’t have to be so predictable. Imagine a cherry-red face mask, a crimson lip balm with red camellia oil, or a protein powder that makes a rich yet virtuous hot chocolate. Maybe skip the scratchy red lace lingerie and the 12-course surge-price dinner reservation and dig instead into something more loveable.
