The J-Lo Glow




Cargo Multi-Mix Bronzer: $28.00 ($18.99 on Ebay)

I think every woman has tried or at least wanted to achieve that golden glow Jennifer Lopez has become famous for ever since she graduated from being a Fly Girl back in the day. I've tried everything from powder bronzers to self-tanners, but nothing seems to really bring out that golden goddess look out. I received this Cargo Mulit-Mix Bronzer in an industry goody bag a few months back and have since fell in love. The multi-mix bronzer is paraben and oil free and also has vitamin E which provides great moisture.

It's in liquid form and very easy to use. You can wear it alone to get that sun-kissed, dewy look or, what I like to do is mix it into my foundation to provide an all over glow. Don't put on too much though because it's pretty dark. I'd say a quarter of what you put on in place of your foundation. It gives you a golden goddess look..you know the one where people ask, "did you do something different?" Or, "You look really rested and refreshed!"

Like other bronzers, it does have a little shimmer, but it's not what you think. It's so subtle and hardly noticeable and literally just makes you glow, like our girl JLo! Also, I've noticed that some powder bronzers can actually magnify wrinkles and imperfections, this definitely just makes you golden!

*Beauty tip: Use a brush like the one below from Sigma (Sigma SS188) or theMAC 188 to apply your liquid foundation. It's great when mixing different colors and helps you apply your foundation evenly. Start by dabbing all over your face then use circular motions to blend the foundation.
