Jennifer Lopez-inspired makeup look

In celebration of Jenny from the block's 43rd birthday (which was three days ago), I'm dedicating this post to a look inspired by her. J.Lo always looks so amazing from head to toe, she is actually one of the main reasons why I look forward to watching American Idol! Her hair, makeup, and clothes on the show always look sooo perfect.

One of my favorite J.Lo looks of all time is her sexy, smoldering bronze goddess look. Her tanned glowing skin is just the perfect backdrop for a great smokey eye, strategically plazed bronzer, and pale lips.

Here's my interpretation of the look:

How To:

1. Face Prep (helps makeup last longer)

Celeteque gel moisturizer

L'oreal Base Magique Smoothing Primer

2. Face Products:

Applied Maybelline Aqua Gel Foundation in Sand all over face with foundation brush

Concealed small spots/minor discolorations with Coastal Scents camouflage pallette

Set with L'oreal True Match Super Blendable Powder

3. Eyes:

Prime lids with Etude House Proof 10 Eye Primer

Used Coastal Scents 88 Warm Palette, applied pale gold shadow over entire eye

Used ELF's cream eyeshadow in Olive; used the bronze shade all over lids

From the 88 Warm palette again, used a yellow gold shade over the lids

Matte brown shadow for the outer V and crease of the eye

Lined upper lashes with ELF liquid liner in black

Lined lower lash line with Nichido Eye Pencil in Gold

Applied natural-looking but thick false eyelashes

4. Cheeks

Used a shimmery peach blush from the Coastal Scents 32 Palette

5. Lips

Ever Bilena Matte lipstick in Skin

then topped with a peachy gold lip color from Coastal Scents 32 lip palette

6. Hair

And of course, we can't forget one of the crucial parts of Jennifer's look- sexy, wavy hair! Apply mousse onto hair, place curlers, set with stronghold hairspray. Uncoil curlers after about 25-30 minutes (it's best to set the hair before doing the face so you'll finish everything at the same time) and just finger comb so you won't ruin the curls. 

Did you like the look? What are your other favorite J. Lo looks? :)
