JLo on Idol

Hola amigas y amigos,

Today's post is dedicated to the maquillage of Jennifer Lopez, as observed by moi on American Idol. As some of you may know, I'm a fan of JLo; not necessarily because of her music and movies, but simply because I like her image and her looks. It seems to me that she's one of just a few celebs who's been keeping her plastic surgery to a minimum. I speculate that she's gone under the knife a handful of times (perhaps some botox and fillers), but she's been careful not to let it drastically alter her appearance, so I applaud that. In her industry, she's going about it the right way... and as much as we all may be against it, it's her job to look amazing and defy aging.

As I've been watching Idol, I've been studying JLo's face and taking careful notes aka screen captions of the makeup looks she's worn. Of course, I'll be trying some of these out, so please let me know which ones you like and want to see duplicated. Here are my 10 favorite "Jennifer Lopez on American Idol" makeup looks:

1. Modernized Retro Glam: Sculpted eyes and heavy brows

Vintage Funk with a Retro Edge

Salut chicas!!!

Joyeux Weekend!!! Hope you've all had a productive week and are now relaxing to your heart's content. I'm not, as of yet, but I will be soon :)) A big thank you to all of you who have been so supportive of my bloggy thus far, thanks for your kind words, thoughtful comments, awesome requests and great questions!! I've had so much fun reading and responding. Keep them coming, because as much as this blog is for me, it is also (and mostly) for you :))

My look of the day is from Christina Aguilera's new video Not Myself Tonight and it is another long awaited request from an ooold friend. In this video, Xtina is being her typical dirrrty self, thrusting her person and invading your space, but her makeup is en pointe. There are several distinct looks in the video, but the requested makeup was the one where she's wearing curled bangs and a ponytail a la the 50's. This look is actually my favorite from the video, and I think it's probably the easiest to replicate. So, let's get started!!!

bisous,
