Steal J. Lo's Look

Filed in archive Beauty , Makeup on November 16, 2007

If you've seen the November cover of Allure magazine, you might wonder how you can get Jennifer Lopez's sultry, natural look for yourself. Maybe you're tired of red lipstick or just want to look like you roll out of bed looking this stunning. What do you need to pull this nude look off?

The most important aspect of a killer nude look is perfect skin. Who has it? Not many of us, unfortunately. Still, you can always fake it with the right foundation and concealer. The right foundation should match your skintone perfectly and you should use the sheerest coverage possible to get that dewy, natural look.

Next, you'll need dramatic eyelashes out to there. You can either use your favorite lengthening mascara or you can do like the Allure photo shoot and use fake lashes. Clusters of lashes look more natural than one big strip, which can look sort of drag queen...perfect for drag queens, maybe not so much for the rest of us.

Finish off with a healthy dose of your favorite lip gloss, like MAC's Clear Lipglass.

This is a fantastic antidote to all the crimson lips this fall. You can still have your dramatic eye, but balance it in a softer way.

'Til next time, my pretties.
