Get the Glamorous Jennifer Lopez Makeup Look
How do you
get the glamorous Jennifer Lopez makeup look? It’s simple, really! You just
need the right products and the right techniques. It might take a few tries, you’ll have gorgeous makeup like Jennifer Lopez in no time!
Skin Care
Celebrity
makeup artist Tracey Levy created a line of cosmetics for those looking to keep
their skin in good shape. The Glow line features multiple serums, moisturizers, and an anti-aging eye treatment that can keep your skin smooth and youthful for
years to come. For example, Vitamin Boost serum is great for boosting collagen
production, making it perfect for preventing wrinkles and keeping your
complexion healthy. Another favorite is Mood Reliever, a tinted moisturizer
that helps even out your tone while maintaining a matte finish throughout
wear.
Under Eye Concealer
Under-eye
concealer can instantly reduce dark circles, but it takes a steady hand to
apply it properly. Take care not to draw on your skin too heavily; you want it
to look natural—not like you're wearing an obvious mask of makeup. Blend
outward and upward toward your temple, and use a sponge tip applicator (like
Real Techniques' Expert Face Brush) to spread out the concealer with small,
circular motions. Finish by dusting translucent powder on top of your under-eye
area with a big fluffy brush (like e.g. The Body Shop's Kabuki Brush), taking
care not to pile it on too thickly or in one spot as that will make your face
appear heavy or cakey instead of natural and polished.
Foundation
Make sure
your foundation matches your natural skin tone to ensure that your face looks
as flawless as possible. If you have fair skin, use a pink-based or peach-based
foundation; if you have darker skin, you can use a yellow-based foundation or
darker. Be careful not to get a foundation that is too light—otherwise, it will
look obvious and draw attention to imperfections in your complexion. Apply an
even layer of liquid or powder over your face with a makeup sponge. For
additional coverage, try dabbing on concealer under the eyes, on blemishes, and
across any spots where you're prone to breakouts.
Bright Eyes
The key to
J.Lo's eye makeup is a bright, bold pop of color along her top lash line. If
you want to recreate that look at home, Urban Decay's 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil
in Zero (10 bucks) makes it easy. For a true red hue, start with MAC Eyeshadow
in Red Brick (11 bucks). The two colors combined will give you a fabulous pop
of color to really open up your eyes.
Lips
Start with
a neutral base and then line your lips with a soft brown pencil. Then, put on a
light coat of brown lipstick and blot off any excess color. Next, grab some
pink gloss and swipe it over your bottom lip. Finally, blot off any excess pink
color so that you get a pretty wash of glossy light brown. Voilà! You’ve got Jennifer Lopez’s gorgeous lip combo all day long!
Add Blush to Your Cheeks
The goal is
to look healthy, natural, and fresh—not like you were rushing out of a photo
shoot for Vogue! You want to emphasize your cheeks, but in a way that looks
natural. So choose a blush that compliments your skin tone; if you're really
pale, opt for something pink or rose-colored, while if you have dark skin
tones, go with peach or coral shades. And avoid adding too much foundation (or
powder) around your hairline and neck. After all, JLo's makeup artist was going
for an I-just-got-out-of-bed look!
Add Eyeliner for a Pop of Color
For a
glamorous, dazzling finish, add eyeliner to your eyes. Just outline your top
lash line with a gel or pencil liner in black, purple, or teal, and then smudge
it along your bottom lash line as well. This will give you that wide-eyed look
that is so popular right now! Add some mascara to help make lashes look longer
and then use either a lip gloss or lipstick in a shade that complements your
skin tone. If you have naturally dark hair like Jennifer Lopez does, choose
lighter shades of makeup. Skin tones tend to look best with deeper shades.
Add Lip Gloss To Finish It Off!
If you’re
interested in trying out a new look or are feeling like a fresh change, try
adding some lip gloss to finish it off. Lip glosses are a great way to
accentuate your lips without getting too wild. They come in an array of colors
and can be easily used over lipsticks as well as on their own. The shimmery
effects add depth and dimension to any makeup look, and they make your lips
appear fuller by providing a bit of extra color and shine. They also provide
moisture and can protect your lips from harmful UV rays. Another plus? They
give your appearance that just-left-the-salon vibe because salon professionals
often use them after lipstick application!
