Every year, the Golden Globes is the official kick-off for awards season. The glitz and the glamour of the red carpet bring everyone back from that lull brought on by the holidays and the cold weather. My girl Jennifer Lopez is always on everyone’s “best of” list and this year was no different.
Photographers snapped away as she posed in her yellow Giambattista Valli dress that featured one of the hottest trends from the carpet— a cape. Yes, she’s got a Las Vegas show and an NBC police drama to promote so she knew she brought her A-game to the Beverly Hilton.
Ever since the awards wrapped, I noticed that ladies on social media fell in love with her lipstick. Who are we kidding? Her entire makeup look was flawless! So I got the scoop from celebrity makeup artist Mary Phillips, who did JLo’s makeup that very night, so you can get the look too.

Here is the breakdown of steps and products:
- Mary first applied Armani Prima Eye and Lip Contour Perfector on the upper eye lid and around all around the mouth and lip, as lips should be just as hydrated as skin
- Next, she created a natural 3D effect by layering sheerer colors of L’Oréal Paris True Match Lumi Cushion Foundation (C5.5 NATURAL TAN, 5.5 Perfect Beige, and W3 Nude Beige — $16.99)
- She used darker shades in the Infallible Pro Contour Palette ($12.99) in 814 Medium along the jawline, underneath the cheek bones, on the temple and hairline of the forehead and along the nose. The highlighter hue was applied to the center of the forehead, nose, directly above the jawline, and underneath the browbone.
- Mary’s self-proclaimed “holy grail” blush, L’Oreal Paris True Match Super-Blendable Blush in Spiced Plum C7-8 ($10.99), was added to the apples of cheeks for a fresh pop of color and extra dimension
- On eyelids, with special attention to browbones, is L’Oréal Paris Colour Riche Eyeshadow Mono in 306 ($5.99). Shade 201 is the backdrop color applied in the crease and 205 is added at the center of the upper lid and along the lower lashline
- She drew a very, very thin line of L’Oréal Paris Infallible Black Velvet Liner ($9.99) on the top lashes only, and concentrated on making the line a little fuller at the ends without “winging out” too much, as that can tend to look costume-y with the rest of the look. Mary finished the liner look by applying L’Oréal Paris Infallible Matte-Matic Liner($8.99) to the upper and lower lashlines, making sure to get in between lashes to add drama in an understated, “un-heavy” sort of way
- Mary primed and coated lashes using L’Oréal Paris Voluminous Superstar Mascara ($10.99)
- Mary mixed three lip shades, building up colors in different areas, applying darker colors to the outside of the mouth, and then working her way in. She wanted the lips to be dark but not vampy, and also have dimension and not come across as a one-note color. She customized the lip just for Jennifer using L’Oréal Paris Infallible Pro-Matte Gloss in ROUGE ENVY, NUDE ALLUDE and FORBIDEEN KISS ($9.99) for a very full lip effect, that was neither too wet nor matte
