Slap Day - February 15

The first day of Anti-Valentine's Week is Slap Day, and it begins a day after Valentine's Day on February 15. This day is for people who want to slap their ex who cheated on them or gave them heartbreak. However, we do not mean that you should literally slap them. Instead, it's the perfect opportunity to slap the feelings for those people away and move ahead in life.

Kick Day - February 16

Slap Day is followed by Kick Day, the second day of Anti-Valentine's Week. It falls on February 16. It is the perfect occasion to kick away all the negativity and bad vibes from your life left behind by your ex. Additionally, if you have accumulated gifts from them that once meant something to you but give you pain now, kick them away too.

Perfume Day - February 17

Perfume Day is the third day of the Anti-Valentine's Day. It falls on February 17. Perfume Day is all about treating yourself and feeling good while doing the same. So, go all out and buy that perfume you have been eyeing for a long time, and treat your body to a delightful fragrance.
