AMAs Beauty Tips For Thanksgiving: Get JLO’s Glow

AMAs Beauty Tips For Thanksgiving: Get JLO’s Glow

For AMAs beauty tips this Thanksgiving, Ask the Pro Stylist turned to the experts that helped Jennifer Lopez glow at the 2015 American Music Awards. Get a simple wavy hairstyle that is a twist away, and your dinner guests will wonder who did your hair, along with glowing makeup tips, which will make you the hottest cook of the turkey fest.

Hello gorgeous, and welcome to this Tuesday’s how-to guide from Ask the Pro Stylist. Originally, today was going to be solely focused on Zulu knots to create effortless waves for the Thanksgiving cook. However, after Jennifer Lopez AMAs beauty tips arrived in my inbox, I felt the makeup, or at least the sheer glow JLO possessed for her hosting gig would be perfect for busy bees cooking up the holiday feast.

For bouncy waves similar to Jennifer Lopez as seen below, part the hair into 9 sections while the hair is damp, 3 in the front and 6 in the back. Twist each section and wrap into a Zulu knot (see Kelly Osbourne below). Pin to secure. When you are done cooking and preparing, get dressed, apply the makeup with the AMAs beauty tips below, and unravel the twists for beautiful, natural-looking curls.

Makeup Artist Mary Phillips for L’Oréal Paris “wanted to pay homage to ‘THE GLOW’, but a more amped up version. It’s one of those land mark, quintessential JLO makeup pillars, and while the opening act was all about the hottest songs, we just wanted to open with one of her hottest looks that her audience seems to love: The GLOW, the bronze, the rich nudes, the highlighting!”

1. If you’d prefer more of a textured wave, Lorenzo Martin for L’Oréal Paris suggests to add volume with Advanced Haircare Boost It Volume Inject Mousse, then blow-dry with a round brush.
2. Use a 2-inch barrel iron and curl the hair to create loose waves throughout.
3. Toss the hair around to loosen up the curl and apply L’Oréal Paris Elnett Strong Hold Hairspray for hold.
