Jennifer Lopez is one of those celebrities who simply radiates on the red carpet. Her hot Latino looks, crystal clear complexion and makeup that is always glimmering and immaculate - why wouldn't we want her look?
Glimmering glow
Makeup that illuminates and shines in all the right places is one beauty trick that the girl from the Bronx has definitely got right! Switching to minerals is one way of achieving a natural-looking glow thanks to the finely ground, naturally derived mineral composition. Maybelline New York has just launched Pure.Foundation Mineral, £9.99, which is talc-free, featherweight, contains SPF15 and creates flawless coverage and natural-looking luminosity.
Keeping with the mineral theme, and enhancing your foundation's glow, apply a mineral blush to bring cheeks to life. L'Oréal Paris Blush Minerals, £7.99 contain both matte and light-reflecting particles so the results are smooth and luminous. With all mineral makeup, apply using circular, buffing motions and build up according to your needs.
Brunette hues
Jenni knows how to colour in style, enhancing her natural good looks as well as complementing her eye and hair colour. Contour eyes with A-list style with the Star Secrets Palette from L'Oréal Paris, £12.99. Arranged according to eye colour, the Penelope Cruz Brunette palette would work perfectly for Jennifer Lopez's look. Rich browns for eyes, a sultry red for lips and warm bronze for contouring cheeks - perfect for any star-loving brunette.
To finish off the makeup look, load lashes Lopez style with mascara that will show off true Jennifer-style curves. Try Maybelline New York XXL Curl Power, £8.99, is a two-step mascara to give extreme curls and extreme hold.
Luscious locks
Lopez locks are big, bouncy and oh-so desirable and she is always sporting stunning golden-brown hues on her hair. To get that ‘big is beautiful' Hollywood hair look, prep hair with a curl enhancing mousse that will keep hair sleek as it dries with a curl, like L'Oréal Paris Elvive Non-Stop Volume Mousse, £2.96. Apply onto damp hair, rough dry with hairdryer and style with rollers or tongs. As hair tumbles and falls, scoop fingers through and twizzle each curl into place. Finish with a slick of finishing product to hold and maximise shine.
For Lopez style colouring that has a hot, Latino edge, go for highlights that lift hair and give it depth and sex-appeal. Garnier Multi-Lights Kit, £5.69 is ideal for blondes and brunettes, and allows for personalised shading with a natural look. And best thing is it only takes 20 minutes, giving you more time to go out and be A-lister glamorous.
