Get J.Glow’s Gorgeous Skin


Get the skinny on the products used by the “Most Beautiful Woman In the World”

 The incredibly beautiful Jennifer Lopez landed the top spot on People's annual "Most Beautiful" Person In the World Issue.  The multi-talented mom of two has been a beauty icon for over ten years since her breakout role in 1997’s Selena.  This year fans have seen the triple threat star every week on American Idol looking more and more beautiful.  We also get a chance to see her warm, gracious, and nurturing personality, and of course amazing outfit choices.

Let’s be honest though, beyond her glamorous style J.Lo is known and loved for her flawless, glowing complexion.  We should all be so lucky to have such enviable skin, but luckily there are plenty of ways to fake it.  To recreate the J.Lo “lit from within look” you’ll need a few key products to get her glow.  Start by priming your skin with L’Oreal’s Studio Secrets Professional Color Correcting Primer.  Then, apply NARS Orgasm Illuminator on the skin to get her glowing base.  Next, lightly dust NARS Desire Blush on the apples of your cheeks to get a warm, flushed look.  Finally, to get her signature tone, dab a large powder brush into Guerlain’s Terracotta Light Sheer Bronzing Powder and sweep it across your face in a figure three motion.  This will evenly distribute the powder to give you a natural bronzed look.  The Grammy nominee rarely tans outside, which explains her wrinkle-free skin.  Instead she’s a big fan of fake body bronzers like Body Bling by Scott Barnes.  Lather the liquid potion all over yourself to get your own version of the stunning star’s illuminating skin!  Complete the look by adding a dash of nude gloss and individual fake lashes.

There’s only one J.Lo, but with a little help from our tinted tools we can all achieve the “Most Beautiful Woman in the World’s” gorge glow on our own.

The talented and incredibly beautiful Jennifer Lopez landed the top spot on People's annual "Most Beautiful" 2011 Issue. I think it's a fabulous choice! This year fans have seen the triple threat entertainment icon every week on American Idol looking more and more beautiful. We also get a chance to really see her warm, gracious, and nurturing personality (and of course amazing outfits).  J.Lo's gorgeous glow and grace put her ahead of the rest of the Hollywood hotties who made the list including Amanda Seyfried, Eva Longoria, and Jennifer Hudson. See the rest of People's "Most Beautiful People" here.







Take a peak at some of my favorite recent J.Lo looks on the red carpet and on American Idol this year. She's such a stunner and has such an amazing confidence and ease with her style and glamorous beauty! Congrats!
