The surprising place Jennifer Lopez puts eye cream
Jennifer Lopez’s “Love Don’t Cost a Thing” — but her slew of skincare secrets can be shopped.
The multi-hyphenate gave us a glimpse at her dewy makeup routine in a Vogue video on Wednesday, dishing on the bevy of beauty buys behind her signature J.Lo glow.
But while several of her favorite finds come from brands countless celebrities love — including YSL and Fenty Beauty — some of her beauty secrets go beyond basics.
Among her top tips? The star doesn’t just save eye cream for under her eyes, as she also slathers the stuff on in between her brows and even her forehead.
“I put a little bit here,” she said while applying her beauty brand’s That Fresh Take Eye Cream ($49) near her arches.
As for the rest of her skincare routine? Lopez, who starts by “setting the stage” with the Le Labo Santal 26 Candle ($82), uses Lumify Redness Reliever Eye Drops ($21) plus products from her J.Lo Beauty line: The That Hit Single Cleanser ($39), That J.Lo Glow Serum ($79) — which she’s said is inspired by her family’s love of using olive oil as skincare — and the SPF 30 That Big Screen Moisturizer ($55).
“I’ve always had a very simple skincare routine,” she said, adding, “I know there was [sic] a lot of rumors back in the day that I was very into these expensive cleansers, and I had to douse myself in La Mer and stuff like that. That really wasn’t true.”
While she might not be bathing in the luxury brand’s cult-favorite Crème de la Mer ($200), she does still swipe on some minty La Mer Lip Balm ($75).
And when it comes time to add makeup, she’s got plenty of products up her sleeve: she starts with the Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer ($14) before contouring her cheekbones, forehead, nose and chin — the latter of which she nicknames “the lightbulb, so it doesn’t light up like ‘look at this chin.'”
The “Marry Me” star then uses the YSL Touche Éclat All-Over Brightening Concealer Pen ($38) — a product Meghan Markle also swears by — to “brighten” under her eyes and the sides of her nose before applying Chanel Vitalumière Makeup ($60), which she owns in three shades suited to different parts of her face.
If it’s her eye makeup you’re eying, the star uses the Tom Ford Eye Color Quad Palette ($90) for a “soft look,” plus the It Cosmetics Superhero Elastic Stretch Mascara ($26), which she calls “the most important part.”
Her go-tos also include another celebrity beauty brand bestseller — the Fenty Beauty Gloss Bomb ($20) — and the Beautyblender Bounce Liquid Whip Cream Blush ($22), which she said she used on the set of a recent movie.
But once she’s done getting her face glowing, the “Booty” singer doesn’t forget to treat her derriere to some skincare, too; she finishes off the routine with her brand’s JLo Beauty Firm + Flaunt Targeted Booty Balm ($65), in addition to the just-unveiled body cream and serum.
Perhaps fans will soon have even more J.Lo-approved products to pick from, as the star teased she might film a five-minute makeup video of her own, adding, “maybe I’ll save that for when I come out with my makeup line.”
