Grabbing a cinnamon-like shade of a Make Up For Ever Artist Color Pencil and proceeds to explain the surprisingly easy way she’ll achieve the final lip look. “You do the dark on the outside and contour in, and you leave the middle open,” she says. She then uses her own JLo Beauty Beso Balm to add a glossy, moisturized yet colorless finishing touch.With a little bit of contouring powder around her face — she calls it “toasting the edges” — and some JLo Beauty complexion-highlighting goodness, she gives us an extremely easy to duplicate makeup look that’s perfect for Thanksgiving get-togethers.
