Revealed: How J.Lo Gets That Glow

If gusty winds gave
J. Lo and the updo she wore to the Los Angeles premiere of
This Is It some trouble on the red carpet last night, her
flawless complexion and sultry smoky eye were pure perfection.
Heavy black liner on the inner rims of both her upper and lower
lash lines provided plenty of wow factor, but the wash of metallic
shadows in black and brown with a Champagne highlight in the inner
corners explains why you can’t stop staring. Should you also find
yourself transfixed by her skin, here’s a tip makeup artist
Scott Barnes gave us a while back regarding Lopez’s signature
glow: “The trick [with bronzer] is to work from the outside of the
face inward, rather than the other way around. This creates a halo
effect and leaves a diamond shape of light in the center, so your
face appears a little more open.” And how. Thoughts on her
look?

Not impressed, it looks like she did her eye make up for over an hour but forgot to put lipstick on. Nope, not transfixed at all and her hair could use a brush

Why does she always squint? It doesn't make her look sexy or alluring, it makes her look...well...strange!

I agree about the lipstick...it's like she didn't finish putting her make-up on.

It doesnt look good. Its way too thick. If I wore that I couldnt wait to get it off, looks like her eyes weigh an extra 5 lbs.

Heavy harsh eyeliner accentuates lines and makes you look hard and old. She's not pulling this off, it's meant for 20somethings.

Sorry but I think she looks common. Just go to any salsa club and you'll see the same over-done look on every woman there.
Her complexion is far from flawless looking-- there's redness around her nose, her forehead is showing wrinkles, she looks oily. Nope, I didn't find myself transfixed by her skin.

OMG this site needs moderators for spam in the worst kind of way!
And I noticed a few people commenting on her lack of lipstick...but it is a pretty well known fact that a dramatic eye calls for a subtle lip, and vice versa. If you try to do both you end up looking way over done...

I agree completely with The Mims.
Flawless? Hardly!
More like tired and in need of a facial wipe to tone
down that sweaty look.
