Last night, Jennifer Lopez took to Capri, Italy, to perform on stage during the LuisaViaRoma for a Unicef charity gala. And boy, did she put on a show. Not only did she sing and dance to our hearts' content (see the video below) but she also looked stunning whilst doing so. Is there anything she can't do? No. The answer is no.
Taking to Instagram, MUA's Pat McGrath and Mary Phillips as well as celebrity hairstylist, Chris Appleton all shared some BTS pics of J-Lo's look. Not only did Pat coin her a "MOONLIT SEDUCTRESS ⚡⚡⚡" but she also labelled the looked as "#RedCarpetRealness". We can't really argue with that seeing as Jen is sporting gold glam from head-to-toe. I mean, even her hair is golden – it can't get much better than that, IMO.
Here is an overall look at the hair and makeup beat:
One for those of us intrigued to see her in action (guilty):
And here is another of the entire ensemble courtesy of Chris, which also features glam squad members, Mariel Haenn who is Jen's stylist and her go-to nail artist, Tom Bachik.
We love a coordinated team... #GlamFam.

For that moonlight glow, as Pat calls it, Mary shared that on the skin (amongst other products) she used the 'Skintense Glow' shadow from the Pat McGrath Labs Mothership X: Moonlit Seduction palette, £115, and Mothership IX: Huetopian Dream palette, £115, in shades: 'Xtreme Nocturne', 'Astral Lilac Aura' and 'Skintense Glow' on the eyes.
Now, to achieve the full J-Lo J-Glow effect, we may need to add some 'money-piece' caramel highlights to our locks. That is the epitome of summer hair goals, after all.
